one wild night in dublin: where should we stay?
We’re flying back from Italy this June, and thanks to the airline gods, we’ve got a 23-hour layover in Dublin. I’ve never set foot in Ireland before, and suddenly we’ve got this one shot to soak up the city’s nightlife. My husband and I want to be right in the middle of the action—think live music, crowded pubs, maybe a little too much Guinness. We’re treating ourselves on this trip, so we’re open to splurging on a great hotel. But here’s the catch: every time I search for places to stay, I get overwhelmed. There are fancy hotels, quirky B&Bs, and some spots that look like they haven’t been updated since the ‘80s.
I don’t want to end up somewhere too far from the fun, but I also don’t want to pay a fortune just to hear the street noise all night. Has anyone found the perfect spot that’s close to the nightlife but still lets you get a little sleep? Or is that just wishful thinking in Dublin? I’d love to hear where you stayed and if you’d do it again. It’s only one night, but I want it to be unforgettable—without regretting it the next morning. Sometimes I wonder if the real adventure is just trying to find a decent hotel in a city you’ve never seen.
