Property was great, in a great area. Only issue was that there is construction going on in the lot behind the building, starting work at 7am. But the Locke has no control over that so I’m not holding it against them. Overall really nice place and would happily stay there again.

We have the best time. Anniversary trip coming from the US. The hotel is in the best location. Close to everything very stylish also is pushed back a bit from the sidewalk so street noise is minimal. This hotel also was extremely clean with so many great amenities. It’s more like apartment style to me. I highly recommend staying there if you’re looking for somewhere central. All staff was very helpful huge Shot out to Adam for checking us in thank you. Will be back later this year.

Absolutely loved this hotel, it’s set up like independent apartments. We opted for a unit on the sixth floor with a balcony and we were so happy with the space. Everything is super modern and efficient. The hotel lobby is dynamic and very well appointed. They have a cute coffee shop at the entrance. The only downside is it closes very early around 3 o’clock. I could see where there was a bar area, but it was not opened during the time we were there probably because it was off-season. The property is also very well secured, there is a key card entrance at the front gate, another to enter the hotel hallways by the elevator, you must also use your key to access the elevator. I found it to be very safe. We also found it to be much more pleasurable to be on that side of the river away from the chaos and noise, but the footbridge is right at your doorstep and in 10 minutes you can be in the middle of all the action.

Great place to stay in Dublin

I had an excellent stay at Zanzibar Locke. The room was well equipped with everything I needed, including a washer/dryer and all implements for cooking. It was huge...more than big enough for one person. I appreciated that I was given the option for cleaning. The staff were always pleasant and helped me multiple times with arranging taxis and answering basic questions. It was a great base for a week in Dublin. Location was also perfect.
