“Uppercross House impressed me with its blend of Georgian elegance and a come-as-you-are atmosphere, particularly Mother Reilly's pub. Located a bit outside the city center in Rathmines, it's a quieter spot, but with easy bus links to Dublin, and the free parking is a real find. I especially appreciate that they welcome pets, making it a solid choice for travelers with dogs.”

tight spotstiled floor
The parking situation annoyed me greatly. they advertise free parking, it's more like a free-for-all with ten spots. these spots were so tight, i struggled to get in and out. plus the room felt dated. The tiled floor and rock-hard bed weren't what i wanted.
