“Maples House Hotel, nestled in Glasnevin, benefits from a superb location; the leafy, safe neighborhood is appealing, and the proximity to Dublin's attractions is a genuine plus. While some may find the rooms compact and the lack of an elevator a challenge, the Edwardian building has been beautifully renovated, and the family-run aspect lends a personal touch that's hard to find elsewhere.”
