Bookings
Getting the hotel of your choice without a reservation can be tricky in high season (May
to September) so always book your room in advance. You can book directly with the
hotel, or through Dublin Tourism's online booking service (
www.visitdublin.com
).
There are also great savings if you book online. These rates are generally available
year-round, but are tougher to find during high season. Be sure to book ahead and ask for
a pre-booking rate.

Discounted Rates
In these uncertain times it's unlikely you will ever have to pay the quoted rate, but you'll need flexibility to get
the best deals, usually midweek specials outside the high season.
Check-In & Check-Out Times
Check-out at most establishments is noon, but some of the smaller guesthouses and B&Bs require that you check
out a little earlier, usually around 11am. Check-in times are usually between noon and 2pm.
