The front desk staff was very friendly. Location close to many things and walkable to a wide variety of restaurants. It was nice to have access to a washer and dryer and kitchenette after a week of travel. The cafe downstairs is lovely and very convenient.

An affordable gem in Dublin!
Nothing but good things to say about the property. From the front desk experience (they happily held my bags when I arrived well before check in time), and gave me great recommendations for a number of local things. Lobby cafe was nice, 'apartment' room was a very nice surprise. Rain shower head was the first thing i tried, and beds were comfortable for all activities. Kitchenette setup was clean, equipped, and modern. Property was safe and secure especially at night, with several levels of locks to access rooms. Only tiny issue I found was that the television was not visible from the bed, as there was a room dividing wall blocking it.

A hidden gem in the heart of Dublin
An excellent boutique hotel in the heart of Dublin. The rooms are studio apartments, with separate kitchen, dining and sleeping areas. The design is perfect, coupled with the Smeg appliances. A bonus point - a yoga mat!! I simply loved it!

Zanzibar Locke is an amazing property! It's right smack dab in the middle of everything, and what isn't right by its within easy walking distance. The room was so comfortable and had everything we needed. It was quiet at night and the blackout curtains helped us sleep so well. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again! A all around!

We had a wonderful time. We really liked the location and proximity to the city. The staff were pleasant and helpful. We couldn’t locate wash clothes/face towels. Some of the residents were a little loud at night. Not sure there are quiet hours or not. We would stay again.

This is a unique and beautiful small hotel-more like an apartment. We loved that it's just across the Temple Bar District with lots of placed to visit, eat and drink. The rooms have a full kitchen and a washer/dryer which we loved, we only take carry-ons so we end up needing to wash clothes. We loved the coffee and bread at the little coffee shop at the site and we felt save all the time. Highly recommended!

Fantastic stay and great onsite team. The building and rooms were clean and lovely and all the amenities. Loved the washer and dryer and mini kitchen. Made it easy to wash cloths before departing. Less to do when you get back home. I would highly reccomend staying here. It centrally located and made it walkable everywhere. Temple bar areas was just a bridge hop over the river with plenty of shopping and food options.
