This is a real find, a lovely boutique-style hotel close to St. Stephens Green and the centre, yet far from the madding crowd. It feels like a home from home, run by a charming host, Noel, and his family. The home-made breakfasts are five-star, with a choice of scrambled eggs and smoked salmon, kippers, cheese omelette or a full Irish... more

My wife and I stayed here for 4 nights. We were expecting a very nice hotel from all the reviews we had seen. It was all we expected and more. We arrived at 9 am from a flight from the US. Noel greeted us at the door and invited us for breakfast. While we ate, he made sure that our... more

The first thing you learn about Number 31 is that you are not a stranger; Noel greets you as though you are a valued return guest -- someone whose visit has been eagerly anticipated. An early arrival meant we didn't expect to be able to check in, but we did hope the hotel could store our luggage. We were welcomed... more

We stayed in Dublin our last two nights in Ireland and wished we could have stayed at #31 Longer. We found their listing in Georgina Campbells Ireland Guide and she had given them an award for Best Breakfast and she was right! It was amazing and different each day! And Noel and his family were always gracious and friendly and... more

Exceptional, charming, friendly, welcoming. We stayed 5 nights at Number 31 and loved everything about it. Noel is such a wonderful host. Arriving here after a red-eye flight felt like coming home for Thanksgiving. Waking up to a full breakfast every morning was like being at mom's house. Smoked salmon and scrambled eggs, full Irish breakfast, mushroom frittata, cheese omelette,... more

Number 31 is a truly fantastic hotel. The most warm, sincere welcome we have ever received at a hotel, and certainly preferable to the formal, mechanical 'welcome's' at larger hotels. A superbly luxurious and comfortable bed that frankly neither my boyfriend nor I wanted to get out of in the morning! Delicious breakfast in a very stylish, peaceful surrounding. Great... more

We arrived in Dublin early, making it into town by taxi by 7:30 am. We stopped at Number 31 (delightful door in a charming alley) to drop off our bags and go exploring. We were welcomed by Noel who enveloped us with Irish hospitality and insisted we come in for breakfast. Breakfast was amazing and the place delightful. The primary... more
