A personal vision of the hotel's owners, representing a place that they would choose to stay in when visiting Dublin. The Clarence Hotel is located in the heart of Dublin city in the famous cultural quarter Temple Bar, overlooking the River Liffey. It lies within walking distance of Ha'Penny Bridge, Trinity College, Christchurch, Guinness Storehouse and Jameson Whiskey Tower.

Words like luxury and premier do not align with my experience. The rooms are small, spare, and in need of renovation. In one of our rooms the carpet was threadbare. Rooms along the back of the hotel are subject to incredible noise from Temple Bar until 4 AM. Good location for all attractions. Staff was friendly.

My husband, daughter, son-in-law, 2-year old grandson and I spent Thanksgiving week at the Clarence. It's a great home base for experiencing the city of Dublin and the staff, in all respects, were phenomenal. The facilities, from the comfortable rooms, to the small but perfectly functional gym, to the relaxing Octagon Bar couldn't have been more accomodating. We all had a great time and would highly recommend the hotel.

I had a King bed, but it was 2 twins pushed together. Kind of uncomfortable. Would have been nice to had a King, or a bed that was attached down the center. The tub was just too narrow, and the shower head was one that you had to hold. I am a rather tall, large person, so taking a bath or shower was very awkward. Would put up with the shower and bed again if I ever go back to Dublin . The restaurant was the best I visited in the city. The entire staff was very professional. The hotel was well worth the money. The televisoin could stand to be a larger size. Other than that, A+++++++

Too fussy and formal-lacks the basicsWe arrived early -1pm -and were told not possible to check in but we had to wait in the study.Brusque manner and fussy behaviour.We just wanted to relax without being bothered.The rooms are ok but you pay for the extras(nail files) without the basics.We like to make a tea or coffee in the room and there was no facilities.We guessed it was so more money could be extracted via room service.Difficult to find the CD player-I stabbed my finger trying to pull it out.Neded sky news or BBc news24.Bed quite hard but nice linen and pillows.Could be noisy at night with goings on out in Temple Bar.This place needs to relax and chill out a bit.Some people may like OTT staff but we didn't like the syrupy,false customer attitudes.

The room was very small but the furnishings were quite nice. I thought their Internet service was pricey, and when I entered the hotel without my husband, the doorman was about to ask me to leave. I also witnessed this happen to a young local woman who came to visit friends (who were guests) for tea in a public room.

Excellence in comfort...we were upgraded to the Suite when we had only booked the Superior which was a substantial amount more but were not charged for. Had a mini-bar fully stocked, internet access in the room, dvd player, stereo, 3 rooms, clean, bed was very comfortable, had air conditioning, close to everything, staff was friendly and helpful, access to gym....

Overall, unimpressed. Everyone except the bell boy was snooty. For the price we paid in far better hotels on our trip. You want an excellent boutique hotel, head to Paris & check out HOTEL DANEMARK...my favorite hotel experience by far. We paid about the same for that place and it had all the chic/boutique feel you could ever want! Sorry Bono, next time my money goes to another place in Temple Bar.

This hotel was definitely not a 5 star hotel! The toilet did not flush, the staff was rude, and if you want to have ANY visitors after 7pm, FORGET IT! If you are not paying, you are not staying! Overall, it was not worth the money and we did not even pay full price. The only good part of the hotel was the location.
