Location

Towels not included

The welcoming upon arrival felt warm and friendly, immediately we knew that this was a good space. The vibe of the building was great. Most notably it wasn't loud and full of people shouting or things like that which settled us in nicely. The room was cosy and comfortable with 8 beds in the shared dorm. Nice to have toilet, sink and shower in the room for us to use. The complimentary breakfast was a nice addition, consisting of toast with spreads as well as a selection of cereals. Having access to lockers in the rooms at no extra fee was also really comforting as I know other hostels will charge for that kind of service. A chalkboard in the lobby had suggestions on where to eat and drink nearby which gave a good sense of what is on offer nearby for those of us traveling in for a short stay.

Nothing to complain about or mention here. Staff were lovely and the facilities were great.

It felt so much more cosy than a lot of the hostels I´ve stayed at. You can tell the owner, Brit, put a lot of effort into making it feel that way. It feels like a home, not a hostel. The beds are incredibly comfy and warm (thick pillow and duvet). Brit also provides a few small breakfast options since a lot of the restaurants and cafés open relatively late. There´s also a basket with a few feminine hygiene products, shampoo etc that you can use while you´re there. It´s almost next door to Neligan´s bar, good place for some trad music. I´ve loved my stay in this hostel and will be back!

2 beds in an 8 bedder room on the top floor, very value for money. Showers were clean and water was hot. Other tenants very considerate, mindful of noise and lights past 10pm. Diverse crowd of mixed ages, lovely company. Light breakfast provided in the morning.

Room felt slightly musty and dusty especially widen sun wasn’t out. Not much room for bags. The age of the building does show but overall still get what you pay for.

This was the cleanest and quietest hostel I've stayed at. The staff are excellent. The location is great. There's even free street parking nearby.

The shower was not great. It's small and doesn't have a detachable shower head. If someone else is taking a shower, the water gets ice cold. Also, note that the free breakfast isn't a full breakfast. It's free coffee, tea, toast, and jam. They ran out of non-dairy milk during my stay, so I was only able to have one cup of coffee. There is a shared refrigerator, though, so you can bring food.

It was a lovely community and great welcome from the host team. The decor of the room was pretty and good towels too. The breakfast was much appreciated and excellent to meet and chat with other travellers.

The mattress in the room that we had needs definitely replacing, but I think there is a programme to renew them as and when money becomes available. Very late travellers arrived past 11pm and as they were right next to our room, it was quite disruptive and they kept chatting past midnight.

I loved my stay in Dingle! The location of the hostel is great and the staff were simply lovely. It's a small hostel and there are no room keys, lockers or anything which made it feel a more like a shared house than a hostel. It was still very safe. I arrived way before check-in time but one of the staff members showed me to my room and gave me a tour through the hostel. On the wall in the corridor are lots of tips for locations and activities you can visit/do during your stay in Dingle.

Staff are very friendly and helpful, it's a good place to meet other travellers. It feels like you're staying in a friend's house while you're there. It was very quiet at the time of year I was there, the location is down a quiet side street just off the main street.

It's not exactly cheap but nowhere in Ireland is.

The staff were amazing and super friendly! They gave us a warm welcome and it was clear that they genuinely care about their guests. They also gave us recommendations for food spots in town and even gave us different travel routes/ hike trails to follow during our stay in Dingle for St. Patrick's weekend. When leaving the hostel to go to our restaurant booking in Danno's Restaurant & Bar, staff even shared their favourite dishes, notably the smoked salmon risotto....which was amazing btw!!! The beds were super comfy and the warm shower was great! Can't find better....especially not for the same price! My friends and I thoroughly enjoyed our comfortable stay in The Grapevine Hotel and will definitely be using it again upon our return to Dingle!

N/a

Kitchen cooking facilities & equipment, private en-suite room, great staff who were also kind & very helpful, great vibe & excellent location.

The double bed needs a new mattress & a good double bed blanket for those who find duvets too hot, Toilet paper dispensers in toilets. It also needs larger fridge space to cater for self-caterers.
