Studio with a view over Dublin, walking distance to city & Dublin Zoo 10 min

We call this our Brendan Behan studio named after the infamous poet and novelist.

Refurbished to an extremely high standard this Victorian apartment has all the classic charm of years gone by but has all the modern comforts of today.

A beautifully bright apartment it has a bay window overlooking the city of Dublin with wonderful views of the mountains and surrounding area.

We have maintained some of the original features such as the marble fireplace and the high ceilings with coving. This gives a feeling of space and airiness that is hard to find in modern accommodations.

All of our apartments are fully equipped with microwave, cooker, fridge, iron, ironing board and hairdryer to make sure that your stay is as comfortable as can be.

The kitchen is fully equipped with all the utensils you would need for self catering and we provide freshly laundered bed linen and towels.

Maps information and leaflets are provided in the apartment to help guests choose the best sights and things to do and see while staying there.
