This was my first time staying at a Locke property, but it won’t be my last. I loved the convenience of this hotel due it being in the heart of Dublin. The hotel staff were kind and extremely helpful. The rooms were nice, cozy and (most importantly) clean. I loved everything about my stay. Can’t wait to come back in the future.

One of my favorite hotels of all time. Staff are friendly and helpful. Transport options are aplenty - including a bus stop for the Dublin Express (to/from airport) 5 mins walk away. Kitchenette and washer/dryer in the room are useful and made my stay more comfortable. Decor is chic. Pubs, restaurants, coffee, shopping, tourist attractions all walking distance from hotel. On-site cafe.

Great location. Clean & spacious
Great location. Clean. Well equipped kitchen. Was expecting a washer/dryer in the apartment but there wasn’t one. But there is a communal one available. We were on the second floor overlooking the river, great view. Downside was there were about 10 steps to go up after the elevator. Not good with a child’s stroller. Seemed pretty quiet. Spacious room. Would stay again. Friendly front desk staff, easy check-in.

Absolutely fantastic hotel! Was so impressed with the staff here who were incredibly attentive and ensured our stay was as smooth as possible whether it be looking after our bags before we could check in, or giving us recommendations on the local area. It’s in a brilliant location which made it really easy for us to explore without needing to walk loads. The room was very comfortable and we had everything we needed (and more). Would absolutely recommend staying here.
