Accommodation

Dublin has many hotels and B&Bs in the city in all price ranges and styles, so securing suitable accommodation should not be a challenge. Hotel accommodation search engines will provide competitive prices, however, it is often worth checking the hotel’s own website or contacting the hotel directly as they may offer special deals.

Our suggestions for accommodation are as follows:

• For students and early career researchers only: Goldsmith Hall residence. These rooms are within 4-6 bedded apartments and have shared bathroom and living space. The room only rate per night would be €55. Goldsmith Hall is located in the city center (right next to Pearse Street station) and it’s 30-35min away from UCD by Dublin bus.

To avail for this option, follow the steps below:

1. Visit this link.

2. Choose preferred location (City Centre), enter the dates required and the Promo Code AUGUST2022 and then press 'Search'. Please note that if you do not enter the Promotion Code you will not receive the discounted rate.

3. Choose a room that suits best. The booker will need to pre-pay their booking using Visa or MasterCard. Cancellation: All bookings are subject to 72 Hour cancellation policy; a full refund will be provided once cancelled within this period.
