    Stayed there for a bit less than a week, friendly and helpful staff, always someone to chat with when comes the evening, be it guest or staff. Lots of young tourists and backpackers. Location is good, at walking distance to the city center but not too close so that nights are relatively quiet. Facilities weren't exactly new but functioning and well-maintained as far as I could see. Rooms were good, a few lockers and lots of power outlets. A good value for the price.

    Great hostel! Fairly good location, with a great staff. Breakfast is cheap, and they serve pancakes on Saturday mornings. Every night at 7 they have incentives for people to come and meet. The nights i were there, they had board games, and the second night they gave us free beer!

    Wonderful place to stay in at a wonderfully cheap price! Thank you all young guys and ladies to keep and lead it the way you do! The new fabulous... I add nothing else otherwise someone may object that I was paid for what I wrote. I was note and, please, kindly confirm so all the rest of the world can see that there are values that go beyond... They are priceless.

    The place as such is nice as is the staff. I just find the stairs leading to rooms upstairs too narrow. I also missed a sort of lounge where you can relax and work or read. There are safety iron spaces below the beds but you need to buy own lock although they sell locks as well.

    The Times Hostel really gave us a special memory to look back on. It was a really cool place to stay and the staff was super friendly and welcoming. They had different events every day. One time we had free dinner and one time they even offered free drinks. That doesn't imply it's not a great family hostel as well. I think everyone there felt taken care of. Loved it.

    We stayed in a private room here. The room we got was not the one advertised on the site, which was a little annoying because the one advertised was amazing. However, the room we got was still nice. Lovely bathroom. The service was very friendly and they provide tea, coffee, etc. in the kitchen. Free towels for hire at reception. 15 min walk from the city centre. €25 fine for late check out which seems a bit harsh, not sure how strict they are with that however. But overall nice place and reasonably priced.

    Every experience I had here was beyond incredible. Each night they host a free event (wine, dinner, cheese, sangria, etc) where everyone is invited to meet new people. The staff is very interactive in these events and they were some of my favorite people in Dublin durning my stay, Ane was especially kind. The service was impeccable, we got many reccomendations from the staff and all of them were great!! Everything was clean, the kitchen was kept very tidy, and breakfast was a plus in the morning. We stayed in 2 other hostels on this Europe trip and neither of them even compare to this one. I would come back to Dublin just to stay in this hostel again.

    The staff are nice, the rooms are nice - but nothing will prepare you for the noise outside Coppers. If you are not staying on a weekday or if you don't have earplugs, it may be worth picking somewhere else. I stayed here for two weeks and most nights I got a reasonable sleep but others I got next to none because of noise.

    I didn't feel like cramming into one of the bigger hostels with 25 person dorms. So this was perfect. I took a nice 10 person dorm. Greeted by great great staff right away. They were helpful the whole stay. Fast internet, power outlets at each bed and a reading light. That's all I could ever need. Thanks!

    Pretty good. Loud neighbors, but that's what you get from a hostel next to a night club open every day of the week. The hostel has free alcohol and or food at 8PM every day so that's pretty sweet. Good clean kitchen to use too.

    I enjoyed my stay (3 nights) at the hostel a lot. Pros - free breakfast 7-10 ( but no meat or eggs. But great compare to a lot of other hostel I stayed in the past. Considering it’s free!) - free WiFi - awesome kitchen - public computer - room and bathroom clean and nice - 7:30pm everyday free events. Sometimes free drinks and dinners. - a lot of plugs in room to charge devices - close to city and transportation is easy - enough storage to store bags in rooms ( need your own lock) Cons - can heard noise of people inside and outside of hostel. Even at night. - check out 10:30 is too early in my opinion - no elevators. Advice - don’t bring too much bags because room is not large

    I'm a quite experienced traveler, and also used to the comfort of hotels of more than 3 stars. Not that you can compare. I haven't stayed on a hostel the last 30 years, but Times Hostel in Dublin made me wonder why. The room was cleaned every day, including weekends. The staff was more than friendly to me, and whatever question I asked the staff did there best to help me out. Here you pay less but get better accommodation than most 2 stars hotels in GB...

    Exceptional customer service! Unfortunately due to Covid-19, my booking was cancelled due to no fault of the hostel. We were offered a voucher valid for a whole year or to re-arrange a booking directly. I told the hostel I that because of other commitments I was unable to return to Dublin so I requested a full refund. They were very happy to assist and have provided a full refund on a non-refundable room due to the circumstances. If I ever return to Dublin I would be more than happy to book with them again.

    Lovely hostel. Breakfast was a good range of food: cereals, toast, fruit, and on Saturday they brought out waffles and pancakes. Staff were friendly. Room was nice with a good shower in the en-suite. Sofas were comfy in the shared area and the WiFi was fast (circa 60mb). Only one thing let it down slightly, the floor of our room had a fair few bits of crumb or dirt. I kept flicking things off my feet when I was walking around. Other than that everything was awesome.

    So if you're coming to Dublin for your studies or even for a small vacation, times hostel is the place you should go for, it is a total value for money place to stay. They have really nice events in the hostel which will make you feel comfortable and I am very sure that one will enjoy them. Apart from this, the hostel very clean and tidy and they take cleanliness very seriously, thanks Barbara for keeping the hostel clean and tidy. Also, once you're in Times hostel you do not have to worry about the security of your baggage, they have really nice section under the bed where you can keep the bags and lock that section (Please get a lock along with you), and also if you're before the check in time, you can always keep your bag in the baggage room, thanks to Roberto and Sunny for keeping our bags safe and secure. Also, I would like to thanks Roberto and Sunny for making an exception for me and giving me the room before the check-in time. The best part about times hostel is that they have 24 hours of bread and milk supply for all the gusets, and unlike other hostels in Dublin they have complementary breakfast for the guests. I stayed at the Hostel for 3-4 days and I must say that the entire team was very helpful and sweet. All in all, if you're in Dublin your stay should be at Times Hostel, don't think twice before booking it, just go for it! Cheers!

    If you want to come Dublin then just visit Times Camden Hostel and you will find so many people from different countries staying in just under one roof it's amazing and I've made so many friends out there. I will give 10 stars for the excellent services, cleanliness, friendly nature and behaviour of the staff members. Seriously they all are working hard everyday both day and night 24/7. Staff members are always there to help you. I appreciate there hardwork and as well as the ambience they have in the hostel towards the people, they also provide so many activities to do everyday which create the healthy atmosphere among the people in the hostel. So thank you so much for having me and treating me as a family member, although I don't know all the name of the staff members but yes Barbara, Roberto, Eddie, Sunny, Thomas, Anny you all are doing great job.
