"It’s a smoothly run, great value-for-the-money operation, situated on a quiet Victorian street...simple guest rooms are tastefully decorated in earthy oatmeal or cream with brocade-pattern bedspreads."

"Has more character than some of Dublin’s bigger, pricier places, with the first-floor Library Bar a popular spot with literary types. Situated close to Grafton Street. ."
Fodor's
"Every city center needs its little oasis, and the Central's book-and-armchair-filled Library Bar—warmed by a Victorian fireplace—nicely fits the bill."
