Dublin is a relatively small city so our first recommendation is that you choose a central hotel. In other European cities, this would be impossible at an affordable price and we would end up resorting to a cheaper but distant hotel and the need to take public transport to the center.

Since transport in Dublin is not very easy for tourists and the hotel offer is economically affordable, do not hesitate.

One of the best places to sleep in Dublin with children is the one near O'Donnell Street. This is a central and lively point of Dublin without the excessive noise that can be at night in Temple Bar.

Another great option is to check the offer of apartments for families in Dublin. There are many, equipped and stupendous, at reasonable prices. Check with several owners, compare features and prices, and get to know Dublin with the kids.
