Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Draper Rooms is frequently praised for its convenient location, about a 10-minute walk to the Aviva Stadium and roughly 25 minutes to Dublin's city center. Many guests enjoy the on-site pub, known for its good food and lively atmosphere; the chicken wings, in particular, are often mentioned as a must-try. Rooms are generally described as comfortable and well-equipped, though some guests have occasionally noted noise from the pub below, especially on weekends. The proximity to local attractions combined with the cozy bar create a memorable stay for many visitors.

adequate stay with some drawbacks

noise level street parking

the staff were friendly and helpful .

the room i stayed in was quite small and lacked adequate soundproofing. noise from the pub downstairs was noticeable late into the night , disrupting my sleep. also , i found the lack of on-site parking inconvenient , forcing me to find and pay for street parking.

excellent stay near aviva stadium

decent size great bar public transport

i found the room to be a decent size and comfortable. the bar downstairs was great (it had good food and drinks!). the staff guided me perfectly when i asked for advice on public transport. they recommended a lovely hotel nearby for breakfast. (high nelly's was the place).

there were no parking facilities that i saw, and street parking seemed very expensive.

basic stay WITH issues

expensive parking cramped room

the staff WAS friendly, especially those working at the pub downstairs.

the room i had was much too hot and the window barely opened. it made sleeping UNcomfortable even though the outside temperature wasn't THAT high. the room felt cramped FOR two adults. also, there wasn't parking available and street parking was VERY expensive.

Acceptable Stay

quiet location airport bus friendly staff uncomfortable bed thin wall poor lighting

The location feels quiet. It is a shorter walk to the city center. The bus stop to the airport exists near the hotel. The pub staff were very friendly. They allow guests to leave luggage in a back room.

I found the beds not very comfortable. The walls were very thin. I could hear noises from other rooms. The lighting was poor for makeup.

The room was clean and had what I needed. The location is good for reaching the stadium. The pub downstairs had a friendly atmosphere and traditional Irish hospitality.

The room was very hot and the small window did not help much.
