3-star historic Georgian townhouse in Dublin city centre
Historic Setting & Architecture
Gardiner Lodge is a sympathetically restored Georgian townhouse that preserves period features throughout the property. The hotel is one of few in the area to offer a private outdoor garden space for guest relaxation. This boutique property opened after a careful restoration that maintained original architectural details while adding necessary modern amenities.
Rooms & Amenities
All 30 ensuite rooms come equipped with flat-screen TVs, tea and coffee makers, and soundproofing for a quiet stay. Hypoallergenic bedding and carpeted floors are standard in every guest room. The property offers family rooms and ground-floor units for guests with mobility needs.
Location & Nearby Attractions
The hotel is a 15-minute walk from The Convention Centre Dublin and an 18-minute walk from Dublin Castle. Trinity College is 1 km away, and St. Mary's Pro Cathedral is a 4-minute walk from the front door. Connolly Station and the main bus station are within 5 minutes on foot for access to the Luas tram line and DART railway.
Dining & Breakfast
A full Irish breakfast with eggs, sausage, tomato, ham, black and white pudding, and toast is included in the nightly rate. A continental breakfast with cereals, cold cuts, cheese, yogurt, fresh fruit, and pastries is also available each morning. The hotel accommodates special dietary requests for breakfast, including vegetarian options and gluten-free toast.
