Dublin has a wide array of hotels to choose from no matter what your budget is.  Depending on how resourceful you are you can get good deals even when it comes to luxury hotels.  The best thing to do is to check out their websites a few weeks or months before your visit.

Hotel rates in Dublin are not cheap but they are reasonable especially during end of the week when most hotels cut off their rates by almost 50%.  Business is usually slow during Fridays and Saturdays so hotels market their establishments by charging low.  However if you time your visit during the Dublin Horse Show and St. Patrick’s Day then expect higher tariffs.

You have a greater chance of getting a good deal if you book your hotel in advance.  However, if you do not have a hotel reservation you can check out www.visitdublin.com for rooms that are immediately available.  If you are already in Dublin then visit the Dublin tourist office as they may be able to suggest something.

Those who want a luxury vacation can choose the luxury hotels near Trinity College.  Staying at the Clarence can make you star-struck not only because of its ambiance but because it is owned by U2.  Morrison is another favorite celebrity hangout. There are also budget hotels and inns like the Abbott Lodge.
