"This is the aristocrat of Dublin's hostels. ... It has the usual mix of bunk beds, lockers and TV rooms, but adds a heady cocktail of extras like...a restaurant and an attractive (free) sauna." Full review

"From the street, the Isaacs Hostel has an undeniable, ramshackle charm. Bright red trim pops against a well-worn exterior of brick and stone. The reception area is similarly attractive." Full review
