The Bar/Lounge at Buswells Hotel

"This Dublin institution, open since 1882, has a long association with politicians, who wander across the road from Dáil Éireann to wet their beaks at the hotel bar"

"But it's undeniably elegant, the rooms are big and superbly decorated, and the place as a whole has a marvellous quirky spirit - in part because its location near the government buildings make its bar and restaurant hubs of political intrigue"

"The on-site Trumans Restaurant receives good reviews and the bar is a sophisticated spot to grab coffee or a cocktail"

"Good rooms, a reasonably priced bar, great staff, and a superb location -- what more could you want?"

"Some units show aging carpeting and fabrics, and barely adequate lighting, and the plumbing groans and knocks at times throughout the property"

"Similarly, the bar and restaurant are cheaply furnished these days"
