Trinity College
Walk the cobbled lanes of Ireland’s oldest university, alma mater to literary greats and home of the precious Book of Kells.
Croke Park
Croke Park in Dublin is so much more than an impressive sports stadium. “Croker”, as it is locally known, is in many ways is a bastion of Irish identity that protects the spirit of Gaelic games from forces seeking to dislodge it.

Aviva Stadium
Watch a game of rugby or soccer and take a tour of the changing rooms and players’ tunnel to peek behind the curtain.
Guinness Storehouse
A tour of this pint-shaped hall in a historic brewery provides an intoxicating journey through the making of Ireland’s signature drink.
Dublin Port
Explore the waterfront in Dublin with a trip to Dublin Port. You can enjoy the bars while in the area.

Marlin Hotel Stephens Green
Comfy bed but not easy to get into in the dark. Hotel very clean and stagf are very friendly and professional. Breakfast is value for money and great choice. Great base for Dublin as so close to so many of the sights.

Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport Central
Biggest plus is the proximity to the airport and the free shuttle service. The room was clean, but only one luggage stand for two suitcases. Had a sandwich at the bar that was good, but the bar/restaurant could have used another helper. Staff was friendly and got us checked in/out quickly.

Clayton Hotel Burlington Road
The hotel was very clean and well maintained. Every staff member I spoke with was friendly and knowledgeable. The only negative is that it is a little further from the city center than I thought it would be, but still not terrible
