55 Aungier Street, Dublin 2
DIRECTIONS
From the airport:
The cheapest and best way
to get here is on the 16A
bus from the airport. It
will drop you right
beside the hostel on
Aungier Street and costs
€2.00. Make sure you have
exact change as none is
given on the bus. The
journey lasts about 40/60
minutes and it operates
from 7.45am during the
week and 8.30am on
Sundays. The last bus is
10.40pm except Saturday
when it is 10.20pm. Buses
go roughly every 20
minutes but check the
timetable at the bus stop
for exact times. You can
also check the Dublin bus
website at
www.dublinbus.ie. The
best way to know where to
get off is to just ask
the bus driver to let you
know - that's the Dublin
way!
There is an express
Aircoach that operates
every 15 minutes from
4.30am to midnight and
then half hourly until
4.30am and costs €7.00.
This will drop you off at
Trinity College a ten
minute walk from the
hostel. From Trinity walk
down Dame Street and take
a left on South Great
Georges Street. Aungier
Street, where we are
located, is the
continuation of this
street. We are on the
right hand side of the
road just after the
Carmelite church. Street
signs are on the sides of
buildings in Ireland so
watch out for them!
Taxis from the airport
cost around €25-€30 and
take about 20 minutes
depending on the time of
day. During rush hour it
can take up to 45
minutes.
From Bus Station
(Busarus):
Follow the tramline west
toward O’Connell Street –
a five minute walk. From
there you can take a 16,
16A, 19 or 22 bus
southbound on O'Connell
Street. Get off the bus
on Aungier Street at ‘The
Staircase’ coffee house
opposite the large grey
Carmelite Church. You can
see the hostel on the
other side of the road –
a large red bricked
Victorian building.
Alternatively, it is only
a 20 minute walk from the
station. If you print out
the map on this site you
can find us easily. If
you get lost just give us
a call on the freephone
1800-AVALON and we’ll
send you in the right
direction.
From the Ferry Terminal
North Wall:
Catch the city express to
the Bus Station (Busarus)
and follow directions
above
From Dun Laoghaire Ferry
Terminal:
A 46A bus will bring you
to St. Stephen's Green
West from where you are
only a 2-minute walk. You
can also get the DART to
Pearse Street or Tara
Street, a 20 minute walk
from the hostel.
From Heuston Station
Take the number 92 bus to
Kildare Street. If you
have come by train you do
not need to pay for the
bus – just insert your
ticket in the machine
when you get on. Walk to
the top of Kildare Street
until you get to Stephens
Green. Turn right and
continue until you reach
Grafton street. Follow
the Green around to your
left and take a right

hostel is at the bottom
of this street.
