Dublin accommodations
Dublin accommodations welcome you to a destination nicknamed “The Fair City”. Known for its castles, historic estates, churches, museums, monuments, parks, gardens, bridges, breweries, distilleries, pubs, horseracing venues and golf courses, Dublin is located on Ireland’s northeastern coast, about a 2-hour drive from Belfast, Northern Ireland. Across the Irish Sea and past the Isle of Man is the English city of Liverpool. Flowing through central Dublin, the 80-mile long River Liffey rises at the Liffey Head Bog in the Wicklow Mountains and empties into Dublin Bay. Not far south of city-center, the Dublin Mountains’ Kippure peak rises to 2,484 feet above sea level.

Dublin’s professional football clubs are Shamrock Rovers, St. Patrick’s Athletic and Bohemian FC, while its rugby team is Leinster Rugby. Modern Dublin evolved from a Viking settlement and was once home to the literary masters James Joyce, William Butler Yeats and Oscar Wilde. Although Ireland’s national and first official language is Gaelic, English is used predominately in government business and legislative debate. English should get you by just fine, but knowing some Irish slang might be useful: “jacks” (toilet), “go ‘way outta that” (stop that), “ask me bollocks” (f-off), “bleedin’ banjaxed” (wrecked), “state da ya” (you are an idiot), “ger-yup-ow-ra-da” (also an f-off), “black stuff” (Guinness), “deadly” (brilliant/great), “earwigging” (eavesdropping), “fair play” (well done), “fine thing” (good looking), “fluthered” (very drunk), “gas” (funny), “gawk” (stare rudely), “howya” (hi), “how’s she cuttin'” (how are you), “craic” (pleasant conversation), etc. 10-15% gratuity is customary in restaurants. Dublin’s currency is the Euro, cars travel on the left-hand side and the drinking age is 18 years old. Dublin accommodations are some of the United Kingdom’s best. Before we get to Dublin accommodations, let’s take a look at some more background information on the area to help you along the way.
Archaeological evidence suggests that humans have inhabited the Dublin-area since at least the Neolithic period, as excavations at Convention Centre Dublin unearthed 6,000 BC fish traps. Greco-Roman astronomer and cartographer Ptolemy was first to reference Dublin in writing circa 140 AD. Ptolemy’s manuscript Geography references the Dublin-area settlement as Eblana polis. The Irish government recognizes the year 988 AD as the city’s first official settlement. Prior to 988, an 841 AD Viking settlement known as Dyflin was established. Even before the Vikings, an Anglo-Saxon settlement is thought to have exited, as evidenced by an archaeological site at Temple Bar. Dyflin harbored Viking ships at a pool on the River Poddle’s lowest stretch. The pool, however, was fully infilled during the early-18th century. The early Viking settlement included a fortified base. By the 11th century, a significant commercial center had developed as instituted under Irish-Viking leader Olaf Guthfrithson. Ireland’s last High King was Ruaidrí Ua Conchobair (reign 1166-1198). The late-12th century Norman Invasion of Ireland resulted in England’s claiming of sovereignty over Ireland. Earl of Pembroke, Strongbow conquered Leinster, to include Dublin, circa 1170. The following year, however, Henry II of England overtook Ireland with an even larger invasion. Henry II pronounced himself Lord of Ireland, and the county of the City of Dublin was established. Slave-trading would become a major economic contributor for England-controlled Ireland. King John of England ordered the building of Dublin Castle in 1204. Dublin Castle served to safeguard the city, administer justice and protect the King’s treasure. In 1229, the first Lord Mayor of Dublin was appointed. Around this time, the city’s population had reached about 8,000. The 1348 Black Death killed thousands. During the late-15th century, a narrow strip of English settlement under English Crown control became known as the Pale. 16th-century Tudor-influence placed Dublin as Ireland’s administrative center. Queen Elizabeth I founded Trinity College in 1592 in an attempt to make the city predominately Protestant. In 1610, John Speed drew the city’s first map. Plague struck again in 1649, and nearly half of the city’s population perished. After the plague had subsided, the population rived with help from the wool and linen trade. Georgian Dublin thrived during the 18th century. Dublin became the British Empire’s second-largest city for a brief time. In 1759, the Guinness brewery was founded. The Guinness brewery became the world’s largest brewery, as well as Dublin’s largest employer. Political and economic decline occurred during the 19th century as a consequence of the Acts of Union 1800. Widespread destruction ensued by way of the Easter Rising of 1916, the Irish War of Independence and the subsequent Irish Civil War. The Irish Free State was established in December 1921. During the Troubles, the May 17, 1974 Dublin and Monaghan bombings killed 33 people and an unborn child, and injured 258. Also during the 70s, a recession caused a decline in population. Known as Celtic Tiger, a prosperous period occurred from the mid-1990s to the late-2000s, fueled largely by foreign investment.
Ireland’s capital and largest city, Dublin is home to around 1.1 million “Dubliners”, who are known to be quite friendly. Spanning about 45 square miles, Dublin is bordered by the Dublin Mountains (southward – Wicklow Mountains low mountain range / sub range), flat farmland (north/westward) and the Irish Sea (eastward). The Gaelic word dubh linn means “black pool” . dubh linn once referenced the point at which the Poddle Stream breached the River Liffey. Near present-day Dublin Castle, this breach point once formed a deep pool. Dublin marks Ireland’s national government seat, or Oireachtas. Standing at 269 feet, College Square is slated to be the city’s tallest building. Dublin’s cruise terminal is located at Berth 18 in Dublin Port. Cruise lines operating at Dublin Port include Royal Caribbean, Dublin Bay Cruises, Celebrity Cruises, Norwegian Cruise Line, Carnival Cruise Line, Oceania Cruises and MSC Cruises. Of course, tourism is a major economic contributor, with Dublin receiving around 9 million visitors per year. Fair City was once home to literary giants Oscar Wilde (1854-1900), William Butler Yeats (1865-1939) and James Joyce (1882-1941), respectfully, who are memorialized by city statues. Defined by a maritime climate, Dublin experiences warm summers and mild winters. Summer high temperatures average around 60 °F, while winter highs stay around 40 °F. Snowfall is rare. Additional points of interest include The Brazen Head, The Temple Bar Pub and 3Arena. Local foods include Irish stew, coddle (sausage, potatoes, other ingredients), colcannon (mashed potato, cabbage or kale), Boxty Pancakes, black and white pudding, soda bread and barmbrack (raisin bread – Halloween). Popular drinks are Guinness, whiskey, Irish cream and cider. With some background information on the area, we’re ready for Dublin accommodations that will help make for an outstanding experience.
