Welcome to The Dawson Hostel – Your Key to Dublin

Stay right in the heart of Dublin at The Dawson Hostel, just around the corner from Grafton Street and a short stroll to Temple Bar, Trinity College, and St. Stephen’s Green. Whether you're here for the culture, the nightlife, or just to explore the city, you're in the perfect spot.

We’ve got a range of en-suite room options including private rooms, mixed dorms, and female-only dorms. All rooms have air conditioning, heating, and private bathrooms. Dorm beds come with under-bed storage—just bring your own padlock.

There’s free high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the building, a self-catering kitchen, a common room, and 24-hour reception. Luggage storage and laundry facilities are available for a small fee, and towels can be hired for €3.

Heads-up: We’re right in the middle of Dublin’s nightlife scene, with nightclubs, pubs, bars and restaurants around the building. That means it can get noisy, especially on weekends. We offer free earplugs at reception, so you're covered if you're a light sleeper.

One more thing: we’re in a lovely old building, but that means no lift, just stairs. So please keep that in mind when packing or booking.

Ideal for solo travellers, groups, and backpackers who want to be where the action is—The Dawson Hostel puts you in the centre of it all.

Please note:
Quiet hours run from 23:00 to 08:00. If you’re a night owl, feel free to use the common room and keep noise to a minimum in the corridors and outside areas.
Check-out is by 10:00 a.m. on your departure day. We’ll miss you, but we do need to get things ready for the next guests.
No smoking or illegal substances anywhere on the property. Breaking this rule comes with a €100 fine, and that’s no fun for anyone.
This is an alcohol-free space. That means no drinking or storing alcohol in rooms or common areas.
Any damages (including seriously messy bedding or carpets) may result in charges of up to €200.

Zusammenfassung der Bewertungen anderer Reisender

Das Dawson Hostel in Dublin bietet eine fantastische zentrale Lage, perfekt für die Erkundung der Stadt. Gäste loben häufig das freundliche und hilfsbereite Personal. Einige neuere Bewertungen erwähnen jedoch Probleme mit der Sauberkeit, insbesondere in den Badezimmern, und Lärm von nahegelegenen Clubs, besonders an Wochenenden. Das Hostel eignet sich möglicherweise besser für Reisende, die Wert auf Lage und Budget legen, aber Ruhe und makellose Einrichtungen bevorzugen.

Amazing location in Dublin, you can get everywhere by foot. Do be aware though that the area can get kind of noisy at night. The kitchen was fine though it gets crowded very quickly as the actual cooking area is tiny and since it has no ventilation or windows, it also gets very hot very quickly. Kitchen was also very dirty. Staff was friendly though during checking in there was definitely a lack of information given, I wasn’t really told how anything worked or where to find anything.

The hostel was overpriced for what we ultimately received. Most of the staff were quite unfriendly, and we had booked a female-only dormitory, yet a male staff member repeatedly entered the room without knocking or saying anything. That was completely inappropriate, and although we told him we weren't comfortable with him just coming into the room unannounced, he did it again, this time in a very unfriendly manner and without apologizing. There's a reason why we choose a women-only dormitory.
