Violet Lodge was a fantastic place for us, a newlywed couple, to spend a couple nights in the heart of Dublin. Not the most spacious of places, it was still more than enough for 2 people to spread out. And it exits right into the Temple Bar area, where plenty of options for food, drink, nightlife, and tourism. Finally, it does a fantastic job of not leaking any noise from said nightlife into the units.
The other point I would mention is that this is not exactly a capital H hotel and is closer to something you may expect from accommodations from a bed and breakfast (minus Breakfast)
It was fantastic and Violet herself was very courteous
