The Trinity City Hotel - Dublin on Your Doorstep

When it comes to exploring Dublin, location is everything. Stay at The Trinity City Hotel and you’ll find yourself perfectly placed between the city’s historic heart and its most exciting streets. With cultural landmarks, nightlife, and shopping just a short walk away, this is a base that makes every visit effortless.

Trinity College – 6 minutes’ walk

Step outside The Trinity City Hotel and within six minutes you can be standing inside the grounds of Trinity College, Dublin’s most famous university. Founded in 1592, the campus is a living piece of the city’s history, with stunning classical architecture and cobbled squares.

At its heart lies the Book of Kells, a ninth-century illuminated manuscript that draws visitors from around the world. The intricate artwork of this medieval masterpiece offers a rare look into Ireland’s monastic past. Just upstairs, the Long Room library stretches nearly 65 metres, lined with oak shelves and more than 200,000 of the library’s oldest books. 

For many, Trinity College is the perfect first chapter in discovering Dublin, and from The Trinity City Hotel, it’s practically on your doorstep.

Temple Bar – 10 minutes’ walk

From the hotel it’s just a ten-minute stroll to Temple Bar, where narrow cobblestone streets give way to galleries, independent shops, and the city’s liveliest pubs. By day, the quarter is alive with markets and performers; by night, it becomes Dublin’s epicentre of music and conversation. And when the party winds down, the comfort of The Trinity City Hotel is just a short walk away, perfectly placed for a restful night’s sleep.

Grafton Street – 12 minutes’ walk

For shopping, The Trinity City Hotel is just twelve minutes on foot from Grafton Street. Dublin’s premier shopping district combines international names with Irish boutiques, with performers lining the street. At the southern end, you’ll find the St Stephen’s Green Shopping Centre, beautifully Victorian in design with lots of unique stores and places to eat.

St Stephen’s Green – 12 minutes’ walk

In the opposite direction, just beyond Grafton Street, lies St Stephen’s Green, Dublin’s most famous park. A 12-minute walk from the hotel, this Victorian garden is the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city. Winding paths lead past fountains, sculptures, and colourful flowerbeds, while benches invite you to pause and watch Dublin unfold around you. It’s a favourite spot for both locals and visitors - to drink coffee, enjoy a walk, feed the ducks or just take a break between shopping and sightseeing. Plus, with its proximity to The Trinity City Hotel - who could resist a visit?

The Spire & O’Connell Street – 15 minutes’ walk

Head north from The Trinity City Hotel and within fifteen minutes you’ll reach O’Connell Street, Dublin’s boulevard lined with monuments, shops, and history. Rising from its centre is The Spire, a 120-metre stainless steel needle that has become one of the city’s most distinctive landmarks. Sleek and modern, it stands close to and in contrast of the historic General Post Office, a building forever tied to the story of Ireland’s independence, where gunshot holes from the 1916 Rising are still visible on its walls. 

Your Stay

Staying at The Trinity City Hotel places you within walking distance of Dublin’s most recognisable landmarks and experiences. In less than a quarter of an hour, you can move from Trinity College to Temple Bar, from the shopfronts of Grafton Street to St Stephen’s Green, or further north to O’Connell Street and the Spire. It is this balance, between history and modernity, energy and calm, that defines the hotel’s setting.

The central location does more than shorten walking times; it allows guests to experience Dublin as it unfolds. Mornings can begin with coffee in the park or a visit to the Long Room, afternoons with shopping or galleries, and evenings with music and conversation just across the river. At the end of it all, returning to The Trinity City Hotel feels as though the city continues through its doors.
