Avalon House Reviews

I couldn't find anything that annoyed me or that I found that was not being taken care of. Well, except that my room was quite cold because the heating wasn't active, perhaps due to the season (mid May)

Nice hostel that is located in a cool area of dublin. Central to most of the night life. This is the second time I have stayed here and would stay again.

I had to ask 3 different staff 3 different times before the light in my room got fixed. I went all 5 nights with no heat (May is cold). I asked the staff 3 times about it, by the 3rd night the finally checked. They told me they would get me a space heater, but never did. When I went to ask about it they offered to put me in another room, but the heat didn't work in that room. They didn't seem too concerned that I had no heat and offered me no compensation, except an extra blanket.

Even for a hostel too dirty. The rooms are very very small. The showers are mouldy. The staff doesn't really care about you. The wlan didn't work. I would recommend to look first for "the times hostel", they are all what Avalon isn't - clean, friendly and cosy! We spent the first night in one of these befor we stared our roundtrip. Back in Dublin we stayed for 3 nights at the Avalon Hostel - never again! Especially if you compare it to other irish hostels. Can't believe it reveived a price...

Wonderful! Friendly People.... many people of the other countries! I Love....

USP's of these hostel are the characterfull building and the excellent location in the heart of Dublin. Drawbacks are that the builing is noisy and the breakfast. You can't expect much for this price, but a tasteless sandwich and a cup of instant coffee as the only option is really poor.

Wonderful place ... Full of good memories... Very Clean and Friendly and Knowledgeable Staff... Good VALUE FOR MONEY!

The location of the Avalon House is great , you are close to the city center but the facilities are very dirty and its looking like its not maintained. I will definitelly not recommend this place.

The staff were so kind & helped us a lot. We loved the atmosphere , the friendliness, the interaction with others staying there & the staff were fun to talk to in the wee hours when jet lag kept us awake... thumbs up to Liam for so terrific ideas..

Loud, drunk people in the room across the hall from me made it hard to sleep. le

The people who run Avalon House are top notch. I had a problem with my room and told them about it in the morning. They thanked me for letting them know about the problem, and by the afternoon the problem had been solved. Staying at the Avalon House was a good experience in large part because of the friendly, helpful, caring staff.

It was a run of the mill hostel. Not bad, not great. Maybe looking for something with more character, but it was fine a good location

The room was really small and the curtains broken. the bed very noise and the bathroom very far

2 outlets in our 4 bed room. There should be an outlet for each bed! The bathroom was not very clean the toilet flush handle was filthy and the shower curtain was gross. Although we paid for a room with bathroom, they still charged us 2 euro for towels which should have been included since we got the 'ensuite' room. The internet was TERRIBLE. It didn't work the whole time that we were there. When we tried to ask the staff about it they were not helpful. Breakfast could have been better!

Stayed there 2 days, wifi never worked.

Avalon House has a very good location, you are close to the city center. The prize is resonable and in this way you can spent some days in Dublin without spending too much for a Hotel. The only thing what you have to get used to, are the small washing facilities (there is not much space, especially when there are many people using it). And since I get a cold very easy I find that the water in the shower is not realy warm.The staff is very friendly and helpful. I want to thank them.

Good location. Front desk staff was friendly and helpful. My wifi didn't work though.

Great Irish Breakfast and good coffee at the attached cafe. Incredible location (right off Stephen's Greene, near Temple Bar and Grafton Street).

dirty, run down, no value for money. booked all late check out (in total seven people in different rooms) and were either kicked out of the hostel before or couldn't enter the room/ bathrooms anymore and were disturbed by the cleaning team. never ever again!

Staff was helpful and friendly, room was clean and served my purpose, breakfast was all I needed to start the day.
