Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Ferryman Townhouse provides a lively Dublin experience, often praised for its fantastic location near the Bord Gais Theatre, Dublin Conference Centre and within walking distance of many attractions. Guests appreciate the remodeled, modern rooms set within a historic building, with some lucky visitors enjoying stunning river views of the Liffey, Samuel Beckett Bridge, and Convention Center. The vibrant Irish pub downstairs is a highlight for many, though some guests in river-view rooms have noted the bar noise when windows are open. The proximity to transport links, including Dublin Express stops for the airport, adds to the convenience.

Central Location and Lively Atmosphere

The location was central. It made exploring the city easy. The pub downstairs was lively (it had a great atmosphere). The rooms were clean and surprisingly quiet considering the pub below. I had no issues.

I noticed there was no desk in the room. It would have been useful for my laptop.

the staff helped me check in early at 12pm, useful.

The smell in my room wasn't great. It was musty. my clothes started smelling like it, too. they put a strong bathroom scent dispenser in the stairway. that didn't improve the smell.
