Nice hotels in Dublin for less than 70e?
Q. I'm looking for a good hotel in Dublin city for Sat January 30th for one night. Double room. Doesn't have to be up to a really high standard, just not a kip. Will stretch to a bit more than 70 for the room... but well, i'm a student :) lol
A. Done a quick search for you, I know hotels here are really expensive but come on its a recession they want â¬160 per night in Jurys Inn in christchurch with not even a bit of toast for your brekkie no way, ridiculous. Anyway heres the cheapest of the good hotels I could find:
Lynams hotel, O'Connell St - â¬69 dbl rm
The Harding Hotel, Christchurch - â¬75 dbl rm
The Alexander, Merrion Sq. - â¬79 dbl rm
I've had family that stayed in both The Harding and Lynams and they thought the accommodation in both were good. I'm from Dublin but have stayed in The Alexander a couple of times and out of the three this would be my choice, its in a nice area just straight down the side of Trinity College. All three are centrally located and above prices doesnt include brekkie.
Hope this helps, enjoy Dublin

Geography class: Fake trip to Ireland?
Q. I have this geography assignment to make a power point presentation on a "trip" to Ireland. we only have monday and tuesday left to work in school, but I need some information on what to do in ireland, and one physical feaure of ireland. we have two cities we are "going" to. Dublin, and Cork.
A. Cork was voted the third best city to visit in the world by Lonely Planet in 2009! Cork is very pretty and the buildings are beautiful. Here is a picture of the main street, St. Patrick's Street: http://wikitravel.org/upload/shared/7/7d/Cork1.jpg
There are lots of really great shops in Cork and the whole city is covered by a bus system. One great thing about Cork is that it's on hills. The city centre isn't but if your hotel is on one of the hills you can see the whole city lit up at night! The river Lee flows through the city and the city centre is actually built on an island which is in the middle of the river. There are many bridges in Cork because of this. There's also allot of attractions in Cork like the English Market (which the Queen visited), the Crawford Art Gallery, Cork City Gaol, Cork City Museum, the Shandon Church where you can go and ring it's bells, the Butter Museum, St. Fin Baree's Cathedral, Blackrock Castle and Observatory and UCC.
Dublin is much bigger than Cork with a population of over 1,000,000 vs Cork's 192,000. Yes if you go to Dublin you can visit the Guinness and Jamestown factories. Dublin does have many nice old buildings too but not as nice as Cork in my opinion. Although Grafton Street is lovely: http://jenhanen.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/06302006011.jpg
Merrion Square, the Dáil, Government Buildings, the Four Courts and O' Connell Street also have many nice old buildings. Dublin is easier to get around than Cork because of the Luas(tram) and the Dart(city train) aswell as bus services. There are many museums and galleries in Dublin, the Zoo, the Spire, it's great for shopping! I love Dundrum shopping centre! There's Dublin Castle too! Dublin is great to visit if you like History and old buildings! Dublin is also the easiest city to get to from outside of Ireland. There's too much to list to do in Dublin to be honest!
What you could do is visit Cork from Dublin or vice versa. But there really is allot more to do in Dublin, even though I prefer Cork! There is a train every hour and it takes 2hrs 45mins
