Advantages: Beautiful architecture

Disadvantages: Not much to do beyond four days

I visited Dublin for four days in April. We arrived at Dublin airport in the very early hours of the morning, and a minibus from our hostel came and picked us up. The driver was lovely and pointed out many of the sights along the way to our hostel.

The hostel was just fantastic, it was brilliant! It was called Paddys Palace and they have hostels all over Ireland. When we arrived the staff were really friendly and went out of their way to help us in any way they could. The bedrooms were all very clean and we thought we were going to have to share bathrooms but we found out that there was a shower in our room! We were also provided with breakfast in the morning free of charge and the room was only about £15 per night. It was great value for money and the transport from the hostel to the airport was also free of charge.

Whilst in Dublin we visited numerous bars and they were always very welcoming and made us feel very at home. We also visited Dublin castle and many cathedrals. They were stunning. The city is beautiful and everything is within walking distance. The buses, if you need them are very easy to use (see my other review). All in all we had a brilliant time in Dublin but I do not think there is a lot to do beyond four days.

Summary: lots to do in four days, wouldnt stay much longer though
