Reviews of The Norseman Temple Bar

Great location, helpful & friendly staff, comfy beds, clean and spacious. Were able to get into our room earlier than planned. Hairdryer, plenty of towels, toiletries and tea making facilities. Ear plugs were provided too as it’s in the Temple Bar area.

Disappointing that there was only one mirror and that was in the bathroom. Also the shower didn’t turn on until the mains were switched on and it wasn’t easy to find.

Location was ideal. Easy access from street.

The pillows were little to be desired. Euro bills are thicker than the pillows on the beds. Each room should have more than a small fan, the room we had had direct sunlight and with no AC it’s crucial to keep air moving.

Location

No Ac working. Sink flooded

Wonderful location, beautiful room. Street noise wasn't as bad as other reviews had mentioned. Staff was very helpful and even went the extra mile to book a taxi for us for our travel to the airport.

Only one of the windows opened and there is no AC. It was unusually warm in Ireland during our stay so the room was borderline hot both days of our stay.

The location of this hotel is absolutely amazing. The best value for money you will find in Dublin. The amazing staff even went out of their way to add some balloons to the room for my partners birthday. Reasonably priced bar downstairs with what looks to be some amazing food, we never got to try. When we come to Dublin again we will definitely stay here again.

Was a bit warm in the room but there was two fans in the room prior to arrival! Also quite loud, but that’s because of the amazing location. Earplugs were provided in the room.

What a kip

The room was very nice. Had a quadroom with 2 singles and 1 double. Comfortable beds. Very nice bathroom. Corner room with windows towards Temple bar street. The bathroom had both shampoo and conditioner. The room was very welcoming. Big flat screen TV. I had emailed with the staff a couple of times before arrival, and I always got a speedy reply. We can also recommend their pub. The location is Tempel Bar so plenty of restaurants, pubs and shops just outside the door. Also a shop for buying smaller groceries is only a 2 min walk away. The day of our arrival we came with train to Heuston. It took about 25 min to walk. Very simple to find. The day of our departure we took the Dublin Express airportbus, only a 10 min walk from the hotel. Really well located for many sightseeings, like Book of Kells, hop on hopoff buses, etc, city shopping, cafees. So if you are fine with hearing noise outside your window until around 3 in the morning, I can highly recommend the quad room here. We will for sure be back.

The windows were not soundproof which we knew when we booked the room. If those would have been soundproofed it would have been a 10 points from us. The staff has put earplugs in the room, but we just put an extra pillow on top of our ears and we all slept well.

Right in the middle of the temple bar area. Walkable to so many things to see and do . Staff was very nice .

Didn’t know about the 2 flights of stairs and the morning noise of the empty kegs being taken out of all the bars.

Location as expected. Nice place, just VERY loud. Not their fault.😊

Convenience

The food was good, and staff friendly.

The room was very hot, and poorly ventilated. Next time maybe an aircon or aircooler.

Right in the centre of yhe entertainment and restaurant district. Really comfy beds. Great ensuite. Secure and safe. Easy check in at Norseman pub, but rooms are in an adjacent building.

A little bit noisy until the pubs close - but ear plugs are provided.

Good location, comfortable beds -clean and great noise insulation

Sink was clogged, but worst was the lack of air. Our room was under a big glass roof and on a hot day the room was a sauna… and there was just not enough air going through to cool it down at night. The ventilators that were provided were of little help with just blowing hot air. We hardly slept.

Location was amazing. In the center of Temple Bar, close to everything we wanted to see in the city. Option to check out at any time was helpful, since we were leaving at 4 in the morning. Noise from the street cannot really be heard inside.

Cold water kept turning off. Every couple hours the water supply would turn off. It would only turn back on 10 minutes after flushing the toilet. So when we wanted to shower, we would first need to flush the toilet, wait 10 minutes and then everything would work. One window cannot be opened at all and the other one does not stay open (gravity keeps closing it), so you need to hold it open. We ended up jamming a can of beer into the window to keep it open. Window blinds on one of the two windows were broken and it gets very hot inside. Provided rotary fan was working overtime during our stay.

Location is great.

Our room was very hot, but we didn’t realize we could open the windows near the roof until the next day. We also could not get in until 4:45, but the staff in the bar was very accommodating.

Shannon was very helpful. She brought our bags upstairs when we arrived. She's actually only 'staff' we met.

No lift. No air conditioning. Not enough table space. No chairs.

Amazing location, totally in the centre of everything. Easy check in

Bathroom door didn’t shut and kept sliding open, no tea and coffee facilities

Great location, comfortable beds, and wonderful staff!

Room facilities were basic - no drawers, hangers or space for luggage.
