Very good

A lovely cosy hotel, a little old fashioned (real keys! What a treat!) but the bedroom and bed very comfortable and bathroom had been renovated. Plus right in centre of Dublin, Molesworth St, opposite the Dail. So really convenient for shopping and sites.

Buswells is a beautiful older hotel located on a quiet street but still close to city center activities. It was recommended to us by friends, and we would recommend it as well. We had a compact double, so it was cozy but the bed was very comfortable and the room was refreshed daily. Breakfast is delicious and is a good start to the day.

Lovely hotel, great location, breakfast was delicious. Only down side was I’m our room you could hear the music through the sound system from Downstairs, had to ask reception to turn it off at 11pm and woke us up at 7.30 the following morning which was a pity. Other than that really nice hotel.

I enjoyed this hotel immensely. Friendly staff. Comfortable lodgings and bed. The restaurant was nice for tea and reading. Price was right. The location was PERFECT and the Air Shuttle stopped right next to the hotel. That was an added bonus. I would stay here again and plan to.

Very good

The rooms and bathrooms were very nicely furnished and a good size. It was not possible to adjust the temperature of the rooms, but the windows do open, and the reception was able to provide a fan when requested. The lobby has two very nice fireplaces to sit near to have a bite to eat, a cup of tea, or to rest. The furnishings and decor of the hotel is dated, but it may be that I prefer more modern hotels. The service at breakfast was slow. There were many guests who had to ask to order or get replenishment for coffee or tea, even though there were ample staff working. I wouldn't stay here again, but it was fine for my brief stay.

This was our first visit to Buswells. We have traveled extensively in Ireland, Europe and other foreign nations. This hotel was not only beautiful and convenient, the staff were incredibly accommodating. Friendly and sincere. Additionally the food was delicious and so elegantly served no matter the hour. The manageress Maria,Augustine, Willie, Ash, were more than accomadating, pleasant for every encounter..We hope to stay again as we visit Ireland often .

Buswell Hotel, has so much charm. Located in a wonderful location, so many museums, restaurants, and pubs within walking distance. St Stephen’s Green just around the block for a peaceful stroll. Highly recommend !

Very good

We had a good stay at the Buswells Hotel. Room was very comfortable and the staff was kind and helpful. One comment though to be made about the music. We stayed in a room in the 1st floor, and the ambient piano music playing at the bar was very audible in the room. As a matter of fact we had to call reception twice (in the late evening, and then in the early morning after) to have the music turned off.

The most helpful and friendly staff at Buswells makes it the best stay in Dublin. It has a great location and has nice furnishings, of course, but it is the welcome and the extra help that matters. I have stayed before and will stay adain
