Guest Reviews
The Ferryman Townhouse boasts an exceptional location in Dublin, drawing praise for its proximity to key attractions and conveniences. Situated near the river, the hotel offers picturesque views of the Liffey and is within walking distance to the city center, Trinity College and various tourist spots. The Docklands location is particularly celebrated for its vibrant atmosphere and easy access to the conference center, Bord Gáis Energy Theatre and 3Arena, making it ideal for both business travelers and concert-goers. Guests have found it perfect for early morning departures from the port and visiting the developing Docklands area. The convenient central position, combined with the charm of an authentic Irish pub below, makes it a well-loved spot for a stay in Dublin. The hotel’s clean, modern rooms and friendly staff further enhance the experience, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable visit.
The Ferryman Townhouse, located conveniently near the conference center and boasting rooms with spectacular views across the Liffey, provides a clean and comfortable stay with excellent beds, good pillows and effective showers. The staff's friendliness and the charming pub downstairs enhance the overall experience. However, guests have consistently highlighted the absence of breakfast as a notable downside. Despite the property's advertisement suggesting breakfast might be included, it is not currently offered on-site and there are limited nearby options for a morning meal. Guests suggest that the addition of breakfast services could significantly improve their stay, as many found it disappointing to be without this amenity. The effort to locate a good breakfast spot in the area added a minor inconvenience to an otherwise pleasant stay.
The Ferryman Townhouse seems to have its share of challenges when it comes to dining options. Guests have consistently noted the absence of food at the onsite pub and a lack of nearby restaurants outside the main tourist areas, making it difficult to find a place for dinner. On weekends, the food situation does not improve with no offerings available. Additional dining space and possibly a breakfast option could greatly enhance the experience. While the convenience of a nearby Starbucks proved beneficial for some, the overall availability of food at the hotel is a noted area for improvement.

However, there are occasional mentions of smaller rooms and minor issues like dated bathrooms or a lack of certain features such as a full-length mirror or proper shower heads. Additionally, some rooms are noted to be on the smaller side, better suited for single travelers on business.
The accommodation upstairs is beautifully done, but it's worth noting that there is no elevator, which could be an inconvenience for those with mobility issues.
