Dublin International Hostel

Description

Dublin International Youth Hostel is situated in a prime city centre location within walking distance of Temple Bar, O'Connell Street, bus and train stations and all the attractions of the city centre and it?s also the hostel that is closest to Dublin Airport.
Dublin International Youth Hostel's building has in its time been a convent and a school and still bears the marks of these times. Perhaps the most obvious example is the old nun?s chapel which has been converted into a restaurant. Or the confessional box from which you can phone home, just be careful not to let too many secrets out!

Dublin International Hostel is open all year long and offers single rooms, double/twin rooms, triple, four bedded (some en-suite) and 6-10 bedded dorms.

The hostel has been redecorated in the past months so come check it out!!

Dublin International Hostel is family friendly but if you are a family with children 16 years and under you will have to book a private room, as children 16 and under can not stay in dorms under the Child Protection Act. Contact the hostel directly for more information!

The Dublin International Hostel is just minutes away from some great Dublin attractions including the Dublin Writers Museum, the renowned Hugh Lane Gallery, the Gate Theatre and the world famous Abbey Theatre.
