Entertainment: Traditional Irish music nightly
“Live music spills nightly from the hotel's own traditional pub, and its location in Old Dublin places guests steps from both Dublin Castle and Christchurch Cathedral. I think that the fusion dishes at Copper Alley Bistro are worth a try, and the clean, spacious rooms offer a welcome respite. For a traveler seeking both culture and comfort, this could be a great choice.”
