Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    This is a great location for strolling the promenade and walking. Staff have bent over backwards to help me as I had to stay extra due to medical situation of husband. Food services are excellent, diverse and are served quickly. Lively and enjoyable area at front of hotel for both guests and locals. Lovely experience. Rates much cheaper than Dublin but with better rooms. Handy to trainline.
