Smithfield Square Smithfield, Dublin, D7, Ireland
Experience our hostel in Dublin city center, with easy access to Dublin airport and Temple Bar. You'll find Generator Dublin in the hip Smithfield neighborhood; adjacent to the Jameson Distillery and just a short walk from Temple Bar. Our Dublin hotel features open social spaces and is equipped with a café/restaurant and a bar on-site. With its reclaimed wood, exposed brickwork and original stonework, the place has an unruffled, industrial feel. From the Irish music belting out of the pubs in Temple Bar to the elegant splendor of Georgian terraces and squares, the city has many fascinating faces – every one of them ready to greet you with a welcoming smile and a pint of Guinness.

Poor
Location
Poor level of cleanliness in room and bathroom. Very Very noisy due to bar, karaoke, and a bunch of about 20 guys running through the corridors, shouting, roaring, and banging various bedroom doors (including mine) until about 4am. Staff did nothing about this. God help any families with children ( and there were some). This hostel is only suited to parties. It's not suitable to guests who want/need to sleep at night. There appears to be no noise curfew, and any behaviour goes.
