Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The room was a good size and the bed was very comfortable with a good combination of foam and feather pillows. Good shower, although the power was a bit weak. Wardrobe doors had signs of damage which had not been sorted. Window out to the rear of the property with food bins from the kitchen being raded by seagulls. Pleasant! The service was ok, although I feel the attitude to a request for room service seemed an inconvenience and non-resident Bistro customers were given precedence (or so it appeared). Expensive rates which were not reflected in the level of service or approach.

Perfect for a quiet nights sleep in a large bedroom. Mine (and it appears most) were on the basement level which is a shame but some natural light still comes through.

The rooms in the Schoolhouse are extremely comfortable with efficient heating and cooling as required. Television channel limited. The food offering was not as remembered from previous stays. Menu very limited and the chef appears to have a large container of shredded spring onions which are liberally sprinkled onto everything from scrambled eggs with smoked salmon to fried eggs to caesar salad!

Wonderful staff, lovely hotel, great pub/restaurant … met all of our needs except one … we wanted to leave one small suitcase at the hotel for 5 days while we bicycled in Connemara between our 2 stays at the Schoolhouse, but they have nowhere to store guests’ luggage. We were advised to try the bus station or train station to find a locker. We overheard another guest with the same request who seemed dismayed with no time to fix the problem. I wish a better solution could be found.

Charming hotel a short walk from everything

I chose the hotel for the character of the property, and it did not disappoint. The rooms very nice and seemed to have been upgraded fairly recently. However, it was the common areas that set the hotel apart. The vaulted dining room and bar area were charming and gave a sense of what the building was like when it was originally built. Also, the old-school keys were a nice touch. The compromise for this charm was location, not being in the center of Dublin. Still, the 20-minute walk to Trinity college was not bad since the weather during our stay was cooperative. I can also recommend the gastropub. We thought we'd just make use of the restaurant for breakfast but at the end of a long day of sightseeing we chose to have dinner at the hotel several nights. A good meal and then straight to bed!

Leave your key at the front desk during the day unless you want a workout.
Beautiful front courtyard with outdoor pub seating.
