Dublin hotel for 2 young adults

Two 60 year olds will be traveling to Dublin with two twenty-something's for 3 days. Need hotel recommendations where the "old" people can go to bed and the youngsters can walk about safely for nightlife. Will not have a car, want to be situated near public transport for city touring durning the day. TIA!

http://www.buswells.ie/ It is truly quiet here at night but close to Grafton and Temple Bar.

Jurys Inn Christ Church is a good location also. The Harding, George Handel Hotel in same location.

Depending on when you will be there, Trinity College has a B&B offering in the summer months.

Several years ago we stayed at O'Callaghan's Mont Claire Hotel on Merrion St. Lower south of the river Laffey. It was a 5 minute walk from Trinity College, a 10 minute walk from Grafton St., and 15 minute walk to the Temple Bar area. What sold me on this place was the fact that it is on the Blue Bus line directly from the airport. The busstop was 50 meters from the hotel's front door. The property itself was really nice, the staff was terrific, and the price was right. If you want to do the Hop On Hop Off bus tour the stop is across the street and the hotel sells tickets at a discount.

Buon viaggio,

We stayed at Best Western Academy off O'Connell street. It was easy walking to the touristy spots. I thought it was quiet (I'm 60 and losing my hearing). The shuttle from the airport stops right in front. Paddywagon tours pickup is a block away. We liked Madigan's for a small pub for music and drinks. I also stayed at the Trinity Capitol near the college. They treated me fantastic too. Enjoy your trip!

Consider the Travelodge St Stephens Green, decent Business class hotel giving old and young the freedom of access to city life day and night. Without breaking the bank (usually)
