About

O'Neills Victorian Pub & Townhouse

O'Neills Victorian Pub & Townhouse sits on Pearse Street in Dublin's shopping district. The 3-star property pairs a traditional pub downstairs with simple, cosy rooms upstairs. It's a 7-minute walk to The National Wax Museum Plus and 15 minutes on foot to The Little Museum of Dublin.

The building keeps its Victorian character, with carpeted floors, vintage decor and a homely sitting area. A full Irish breakfast is served in the restaurant, and the bar pours a well-regarded Irish coffee. Free Wi-Fi, luggage storage and a welcome drink come as standard.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Rooms show their age — Guest ratings for rooms and cleanliness sit at 7 out of 10, with some mention of dated decor and maintenance niggles.
  • Pub noise can carry — The lively bar downstairs is a draw, but it may mean some sound drift into the rooms above, especially on music nights.
  • No on-site parking — There is no dedicated hotel parking listed, so guests arriving by car will need to find public options nearby.
  • Price is on the high side for the class — The rating for price and service sits at 7, and with rates from 220 GBP, some guests may expect more modern finishes.
