PriceLuck Posted September 10, 2011 Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 I'd like some help with good hotels near Aviva Stadium in Dublin, Ireland - August 30-September 2, 2012 where Notre Dame will be playing Navy on September 1, 2012. I believe Dublin City Center South is best area, but am not familiar with area close around Aviva Stadium near Lansdowne Road in Ballsridge area. Any suggestions on Priceline and Hotwire options to get a good deal on a 5*, 4* or even 3* in a nice place close to the stadium would be appreciated. Thanks Link to comment
AaronJB Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 What would be your desired budget per night for this stay. Additionally, are there any HOTWIRE listings of interest showing when searching?Thank you for using the site's HOTWIRE or PRICELINE links to start your purchases and searches. Link to comment
RackRate Posted November 21, 2011 Report Share Posted November 21, 2011 Surprisingly there's few hotels directly adjacent to the Aviva Stadium. Most hotels are about a 15-30 minute walk away. It's because the stadium is located in a residential area. Although you might get a good guesthouse or B&B nearby.The nearest Priceline and Hotwire hotels would be the Maldron Hotel on Cardiff Lane and the Hilton Hotel on Charlemont Place. I'd say you'd be more likely to get a good deal on these 4 star hotels, than on the five star Westin, Shelbourne or Conrad. The Maldron and Hilton are also slightly closer to the stadium than the other hotels.The nearest affordable hotels would be the D4 Hotels, Ballsbridge and Bewleys Hotel, Ballsbridge. These are independent 4 star/low cost hotels, not in Priceline or Hotwire:http://www.d4berkeley.ie/http://www.bewleyshotels.com/ballsbridge/I hope you enjoy your stay in Dublin. Link to comment
PriceLuck Posted January 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 Thanks for input. The Aviva Stadium area places and hotels you mentioned were all sold out, but I was able to eventually get The 3* Principal Fleet Street Hotel, Temple Bar, Dublin at $130 per night for a double room which included the tax. It is an easy light rail couple stops away and in a very fun part of town. While I tried for a good Dublin hotel on PRICELINE, I wasn't able to get it here, but it came up on a 3* on HOTWIRE and when I got it I was pleased to see it was the newly remodeled Fleet Street Hotel.
