A short walk from Temple Bar, facing the River Liffey head-on, Four Courts Hostel is the kind of high quality hostel we dig. With 236 beds in all, it's clean and friendly, sporting a super informed staff and spacious lounges on two floors. Best of all, Four Courts has a slew of simple double and family rooms, all affordably priced.
Walk right on by the cheesy, grotesque murals (horny leprechauns? yep!) and settle into one of Four Courts's rooms. Most of the doubles and family size rooms, which they call "privates" have private bathrooms. Simple blue bunk beds and tall windows are the standard. Rooms facing the front of the hostel feature views of the neoclassical Four Courts complex, which houses several courts of law and a law library.
While the hostel sees its share of excitement (deejayed afternoon parties are not unheard of), it also clusters its rooms in such a way as to insulate quiet guests from those after hyperactive decibel activities. (Dorm rooms face the street and private rooms open to the back, with stairwells dividing the two room types.)
