Fodor's Review:

Many young, independent travelers rate this cleverly restored redbrick Victorian building, a five-minute walk southwest from Grafton Street and 5 to 10 minutes from some of the city's best music venues, the most appealing of Dublin's hostels. Avalon House has a mix of dormitories, rooms without bath, and rooms with bath. The dorm rooms and en suite quads all have loft areas that offer more privacy than you'd typically find in a multibed room. The Avalon Café serves food until 10 PM but is open as a common room after hours. Pros: beautiful, historic building; communal kitchen for cooking; cheapest city-center spot. Cons: you need to like sharing with students; street noise can be an issue on weekends; in-room facilities limited.

Hotel Details: 40 4-bed rooms, 35 with bath; 26 twin rooms, 4 with bath; 4 single rooms with shared bath; 5 12-bed dorms, 1 10-bed dorm, and 1 26-bed dorm, all with shared bath
In-room: no TV.
In-hotel: restaurant, Internet terminal.
Credit Cards: AE, MC, V
