The property itself is fine. Our room had clean linens and the beds were comfortable. The room and especially the bathroom are tight for space....but for the price and old buildings in an old city... this was half expected. The Staff were friendly and attentive. Only complaint of Hotel upkeep itself was the carpets looked extremely worn..in need of replacement basically. This isn't a critique of Clifden Hotel right now....but more of Dublin in general. It's dirty. It has a homeless problem with litter and human "litter" ( if you get my hint) that comes with the homeless problem. I guess they'll need to address these social issues....like most big cities nowadays. Just sad to see what's happened over the past 20 years since I was last here.

This property does not have an elevator (lift) and has 3 floors (4 technically, the number the floors differently), so I suggest asking for a lower floor if you can’t do several flights of stairs daily. This property also do not have Air Conditioning. Otherwise, it was nice and simple.

The place was dated and a bit musty. The rooms in the basement are terrible and very musty. They really need to clean them up before renting.

Liked: Cleanliness
The staff was great, but the room was not. It was clean but lacked amenities. It was very hot in the room and the fan provided barely moved the air. The bathroom was the tiniest bathroom I have ever been in with a sink so small brushing our teeth was a challenge. Also, our room was in the foyer and we were awakened at all hours of the night by loud chatter from guests and/or early morning staff. The area around the Clifden House left a lot to be desired. It was horrendously filthy. The price was comparable to a four-star hotel but was 2-star quality. Would not recommend.

Everything about our stay was perfect. Staff went above and beyond to look after us; even giving us an early check in due to terrible flights. The rooms were spacious and clean. The location is excellent. We would definitely recommend.

Great place, but bring noice cancelling headphones

Pretty good area, very walkable to most of the main parts of Dublin or a hop on hop off bus stop. Biggest problem is the extreme lack of room silence. You can pretty much hear every conversation anyone is having and it sounds like it's heavily raining when your neighbour has a shower. That usually wouldn't bother me too bad, but come 2am on my last night i got about half an hour of chatting and rolling suitcases up and down the halls. Twasnt Grand TBH
