About

The Ripley Court Hotel

The Ripley Court Hotel occupies a busy corner of Talbot Street, putting you within a short walk of O'Connell Bridge and the main transport links. The 96 rooms are straightforward, with city views, tea and coffee facilities, and flat-screen TVs. On-site parking is a rare convenience for central Dublin, and the 24-hour reception and room service add flexibility.

The hotel's bar is a local fixture, serving food that guests repeatedly describe as good value, and the carvery lunch has drawn particular praise. While the public areas and rooms are kept clean, the overall score of 7.9 from over 10,000 reviews reflects a solid, no-frills stay rather than a luxury one.
