About
Ashling House Serviced Accommodation - Dublin
Ashling House sits on the Upper Drumcondra Road, a busy thoroughfare that leads straight to Dublin Airport. It's a 3-star, family-run serviced accommodation that keeps things simple: comfortable rooms, a warm welcome, and a location that makes early flights or quick city trips easy. That's the honest pitch, and it holds up.
The guesthouse is roughly 11 minutes from the airport by car, with a bus stop right outside for regular services into the city centre. Christ Church Cathedral is about 3.3 km away, and Dublin City University is also within easy reach. Rooms range from singles to family rooms, all with private showers and the essentials — kettle, ironing facilities, and free toiletries.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
3 reasons to book- Location is the standout — Right on the airport road, around 11 minutes from Dublin Airport with a bus stop outside for regular city centre services. The location rating of 9/10 backs that up.
- Friendly, personal service — Guests consistently mention the warm welcome from the owner Padraig and the staff, who go out of their way to help with directions and local tips.
- Clean and comfortable rooms — Rooms are repeatedly described as very clean, cosy, and quiet, with good shower pressure. The rooms-and-cleanliness score of 7/10 is solid for the price class.
–
Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Check-in is limited to 13:00–21:00 — If you're arriving outside those hours, you'll need to plan ahead — the window is tighter than many hotels.
- On a busy road — Though guests note it's surprisingly quiet, the Upper Drumcondra Road is a main route to the airport, so some traffic noise is possible — especially in front-facing rooms.
- Basic amenities — There's free Wi-Fi in public areas, but rooms don't list in-room Wi-Fi. No pets, and no mention of air conditioning — likely fans or open windows in summer.
