Top National Transport Museum Hotel Reviews

Hilton Dublin Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great. Would definitely recommend as I’ve stayed here several times"

Marine Hotel

8/10 Good

"I was upgraded to a better room as the one I had booked was not available, very helpful staff @ reception. Facilities were very good and the food was nice, although the later you leave breakfast, the selection was not as good as if you had gone earlier. Although the hotel was lovely, some of the other guests behaviour during the night, was out of order, Lucky if I had 4 hours sleep. Only 25 minutes to central Dublin and beautiful Howth only 5 minutes away."

Heatherview B&B

10/10 Excellent

"During my first trip to Ireland, I stayed at three different properties, and Jim’s B&B was by far the most homey and hospitable of them all. Jim welcomed us as soon as we arrived and was incredibly informative about the surrounding area and its history. He even passed along two bus passes left behind by previous guests, saving us the expense of purchasing our own for the trip into the village. It was such a thoughtful gesture and made our stay that much easier. The property itself was clean, beautiful, and inviting, with a lovely bedside tea station and the most comfortable beds we slept in throughout our entire trip. Although we initially chose this location for its proximity to the airport, we were pleasantly surprised by its walking distance to a beautiful trail and an 800 year old castle. Just be sure to plan your castle visit accordingly, as tours typically end around dinnertime or earlier. Jim also kindly arranged a taxi for our 6 a.m. airport departure, which we greatly appreciated. The combination of Jim’s hospitality, the thoughtful little touches, and the comfortable accommodations made this stay especially memorable. If we ever find ourselves back in the area, we would absolutely stay here again. I wholeheartedly recommend Heatherview B&B to anyone visiting!"

Delightful Howth Village apartment in Dublin

8/10 Good

"Loved the location! Beds were very comfy. Suggest the following improvements for 5 stars:Either create a welcome book for the unit or update the check in instructions on VRBO to include WiFi details, how to manage the heat and hot water, how to get hot water in the shower (we eventually figured it out). Offer a second set of keys. We were two couples traveling together so one set just meant more logistics for us to figure out. When a listing says it sleeps 6, it should minimally have 6 of everything. We had 3 towels and very limited cutlery. Have some warm comfy blankets for the living area and to throw on beds at night if cold.All in all, it worked well for us and with some easy improvements would be perfect."

Charming Howth Marina Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"Location Location Location! Absolutely perfect spot as home base. Stunning cliffs, great seafood, gracious town and we'll definitely return many times‐‐ an absolute haven away from the congestion. We left and stayed in Dublin city center before flying on to Porto a few days later, and we are far happier for having stayed here first!Off peak, if you're up before 8am or 9am, bring your own coffee machine & coffee. Tea kettle, instant coffee & tea bags provided in room. Little is open before 7.30, and you're on your own till 8 or 9am for coffee. Functionality-- there are two wall plugs, so charging your laptops & devices overnight can be a challenge. There are no hooks, and little if any shelf space, available in the room, so bring a travel caddy for all bathroom essentials. No hooks for towels or jackets/coats. There is a small closet but no shelf or drawers otherwise for clothes, books, etc. Finally, plan a quick tesco trip, only about 500 meters, for basic items like an extra bath & hand towel."
