• Mairead (9/5): -
• Anna (10/5): -
• Benjamin (8/5): - Nice people More space
• Amanda (4/5): - Location Mouth guard, Brioche & Hair Turban under beds. Loads of crumbs under beds.
• Khoa Khoi (9/5): - Best location for tourists, it's right at the heart of the town and only few meters away from all the shops and entertainment. Very quiet at night. Very clean. Well-equiped kitchen which feels like home. The room is well ventilated. Nice staffs. No bed curtains, very little privacy. Lockers can only fit very small bags.
• Andreas (10/5): Good - Good
• Iris reist (7/5): - Super freundliches Personal und sauber Bett unbequem, alte durchgelegene Matratzen
• Fabiana (10/5): -
• Xana (6/5): - All good enough for hostel, equipped kitchen centric Staff didn't care for keeping silence in the morning they allowed children to stay they were running shouting since 7 am in the morning we woke up couldn't sleep and had to call staff two times but they never did anything to stop the noise that went on for more than one hour . Room had 8 beds
• Kate (10/5): Excellent, hope to stay there again and would recommend - Nothing
• Paige (10/5): -
• Camille (7/5): -
• Rachel (8/5): good value and great location. Always fun to chat with other travelers in a hostle - great location, friendly staff, good kitchen facilities. a bit noisy, shower not hot during peak use times
• Jean-Pierre (8/5): -
• Sarah (10/5): - Excellent location. Really friendly staff. Room was really comfortable and very clean. Highly recommend Nothing
• Patience (9/5): One of the best experiences I have had living and travelling in Ireland - The hosts were very attentive and kind, the overall vibe of the other guests was really good. We all felt like we had known each other a long time and I am in touch with some people I met at the hostel. There was nothing not to like, honestly. It was a shared accommodation and one knows this going in. I was sceptical in the beginning because I had to write up some assignments, but I am glad I went and hostels are really underrated.

• Adelheid (1/5): - Gar nichts Ich hatte eine Unterkunft in einem Frauenschlafsaal mit 6 Betten gebucht. Mir wurde ein Bett in einem gemischten Schlafsaal mit 12 Betten zugewiesen. Als ich auf meine Bchung hingeeiesen habe, meinte die Mitarbeiterin, es wäre keine andere Schlafmöglichkeit frei. Der Raum war extrem klein, eng, es gab keine Ablagemöglichkeiten (ausser zwei Stühlen für 12 Personen). Das Bad gleichwohl sehr klein, schmutzig, ohne Ablagemöglichkeiten.
• Delphine (8/5): - Tres bien placé dans Dingle. Une chouette auberge de jeunesse avec tout ce qu on y cherche. La cuisine est un peu petite pour tout le monde . Pas possible de mettre des packs de glace au congélo.
• Georg (10/5): -
• Fiona (6/5): - Location and price Was cold, no heater in room and sound definitely travelled!
• Vivian (9/5): - Incredible location right in the middle of Dingle. Really friendly people with lots of helpful tips and recommendations. The beds were spacious and really comfortable. Nice kitchen and common area as well.
• Anna (7/5): - Great location and good value for money. Hot water in the shower and decent bed. The heating was not on (with 10 degrees outside) so it was impossible to dry wet clothes and shoes before the next part of our trek. Also (which is not the hostel's fault), some of the guests were playing loud music after midnight so better bring earplugs.
• Waterholter (5/5): Wenn man keine hohen Ansprüche an das Zimmer hat, weil man nur zum schlafen da ist, perfekte Lage. - Die Lage ist perfekt um durch die Straßen von Dingle zu ziehen und im Dingle Pub den Abend zu genießen Es ist sehr hellhörig, das Zimmer ist ein wenig zu klein, sodass man keine Möglichkeit hat, Sachen abzulegen
• Jérôme (8/5): Parfait et merci à vous. Continuez ainsi. - Les équipements pour cuisiner, la grandeur de la cuisine, de la possibilité de se servir du pain de mie, beurre, café, lait…. Le petit salon lecture Des rideaux aux lits des dortoirs En Irlande, beaucoup d’auberge devrait s’inspirer de cette gestion et de cette qualité. Tout les détails sont là L’eau de la douche est un peu froide par rapport à l’eau de la cuisine
• Elena (5/5): Location ideal but room was very old and not worth the money - The location was ideal! The en-suite bathroom was so old, shower could be replaced or have shampoo holders in walls at least. Mirror was cracked and old and lights weren’t working. We found a hair bonnet under the beds too.
• Valeria (9/5): Veramente bello e confortevole! - Questo ostello è molto accogliente e colorato, le stanze sono luminose e i letti molto comodi, gli altri viaggiatori come me si sono dimostrati cordiali e gentili, così come lo staff. Tantissime idee su cosa fare nei dintorni sulla bacheca all'ingresso, vi consiglio di consultarla! Non ho usufruito della colazione ma era semplice (pane, burro, marmellata, cereali, latte) può essere un buon inizio di giornata se non si hanno grosse pretese sul cibo! Il bagno è dentro la camera, comodissimo per tanti aspetti ma la nostra camerata da 8 a volte obbligava a fare un po' di fila, senza possibilità di usarne un altro.
• Mai (8/5): -
• Shaun (8/5): -
• Marrie (8/5): Fijne overnachting in het centrum van Dingle - De ligging, de vriendelijkheid en een goede sfeer. Goede bedden -
• Klara (7/5): - Lage war 1A Betten zu hart, sehr hellhörig
• Jeremias Aymará (7/5): - Good , but the prices in Ireland are extensives, 35€ for Nigth in a Room with 7 more people is expensive price. Good in general, but some instalations needs some renovations.
• Mar (10/5): - For it's price i think that's a great deal! If you have travelled as a backpacker so that's exactly what you mostly get in a little private hostel. Maybe for a longer stay it might be not enough privacy or space but for 1-2 nights if you are used to the hostels - it's great. Nice location, great stuff, even some basic breakfast included. There was a hot water in a shower 😅(was scared because saw a comment that there was not). Towels are not included but 2eu is more than fair for this. I'm super happy with my experience, will definitely stay here again. Highly recommend! That i needed to leave so soon, would love to stay there longer😂
• RémiBa (8/5): - L'ambiance maison cosy La douche du dortoir de 8 n'était pas du tout fonctionnelle. La température de l'eau variait constamment d'un froid glacial à un chaud brûlant et vice-versa, sans même avoir à toucher aux réglages.
• Galloway (9/5): -
• Alain (6/5): Correct - Plus auberge de jeunesse qu’hôtel.
• Maria (9/5): Buena calidad precio. - En muy buena zona, cerca del puerto y del centro. Ofrecía desayuno básico pero muy bueno. El personal muy amable y tiene zonas comunes muy limpias. La habitación un poco pequeña para 3 pero no tiene importancia. No tiene parking pero se puede aparcar en la calle gratis.
• wim (9/5): rondreis ierland - complementory ontbijt, Gemoedelijke sfeer. niets
• Emilie (9/5): - Établissement très chaleureux et convivial!
• Martina (6/5): -
• Noel (6/5): Old hostel needs upgrade - Location, friendly Old property and needs attention. Curtains on the bunks would be good. Bathrooms need upgrade. Flooring needs upgrade. staff good.
• antoine (7/5): - L'emplacement La douche
• anne marie (9/5): parfait pour un court séjour -
• DECOOL (6/5): -
• Ana (6/5): -
• Yue (3/5): never come again - A full breakfast It was very noisy last night. Putting aside the snoring, I don't understand why the person came into the room after check in time and in the early morning he made so much noise, waking me up several times.
• Lynch (10/5): -
• Lawrence (10/5): Great staff (Larkin) and top-notch location make this a winner! - Great location. Parking was a challenge.
• ryan (7/5): -
• Jacqueline (9/5): -
• Sheila (10/5): Great location with a friendly accomadating staff. - The staff was great and the location convenient
• Lorraine (10/5): -
• Caitleen (8/5): -
• Lorraine (10/5): -
• John (7/5): -
• Rachelle (9/5): -
• Jessica (6/5): - Posizione comoda nel centro di Dingle, cuscini comodi. Stanza molto piccola, asciugacapelli non presente e si sentono molto gli altri ospiti quando escono/entrano nelle stanze adiacenti e anche se chiacchierano.
• Oyu (10/5): -
• Serafina (10/5): Grazie staff! - Essere accolta come a casa
• Summer 36 (5/5): -
• Sean (6/5): Friendly hostel right in the heart of Dingle - Great communal areas and facilities for cooking, making teas and coffee etc. Location is perfect and right in the heart of Dingle, staff also gave some great recommendations for restaurants and where to find good live music. I think split male/female dorms would be a good idea. We got on great with all of the other travellers in our dorm but as a group of 4 males, I could see how it could potentially be a little uncomfortable for the likes of female solo travellers. Also the bathroom facilities are a little lacking to serve 8 guests to a dorm.

• Lucia (8/5): Nette Unterkunft um Dingle zu erkunden. - Die Lage ist super für Dingle, das Personal ist sehr zuvorkommend und die Atmosphäre sehr freundlich. Das kleine Frühstücksangebot (Müsli und Toast) war nett hergerichtet. Die Empfehlungen im Gemeinschaftsbereich waren sehr nett. Das Haus ist schon älter also sieht man schon paar Abnutzspuren aber alles tragbar.
• Dave Norfolk (8/5): - Habitación con dos camas individuales bastante cómodas y un buen baño. No es nada de lujo, pero no está mal por los precios que se maneja el país. Descansé muy bien la noche que me alojé, es un alojamiento muy silencioso. El desayuno que incluyen, sobre todo por las condiciones de limpieza en las que estaba la cocina. Entiendo que esto es cosa de los huéspedes, que no recogen su basura o no limpian sus cubiertos, pero debería haber ahí alguien en todo momento recogiendo las cosas para que cada huésped que baje se encuentre todo en óptimas condiciones.
• Danielle (6/5): -
• Kris (9/5): - Everything - a great set up, area, staff, nice hot showers, breakfast included. Would have liked locks on dorm room as lockers provided not big enough for packs.
• Barbora (9/5): - well equipped kitchen, nice common areas, cosy vibe, self check-in bathroom in the room was tiny but ok
• Nicoletta Picchi (10/5): - I locali accoglienti e puliti.
• Katka (10/5): -
• Karoline (10/5): Ein tolles Hostel in zentraler Lage - Wir wurden in der Unterkunft sehr liebevoll empfangen und haben sogar sehr kurzfristig ein Zimmer bekommen. Die Unterkunft liegt sehr zentral, man ist innerhalb von einer Minute im Zentrum, wo man viele Pubs, Restaurants und Geschäfte findet. Wir hatten ein Dreibettzimmer, es war sehr klein aber sehr gemütlich und wir hatten alles, was wir gebraucht haben. Es ist ein Hostel, wer also ein Luxushotel erwartet, ist hier an der falschen Adresse. Alle anderen werden glücklich werden. Wir waren sehr überrascht, dass es morgens sogar ein kleines Frühstück gab. Toast mit Marmelade und verschiedene Cornflakes, Kaffee und Tee. Es gibt im Erdgeschoss eine gemeinsame Küche, wo man auch außerhalb des Frühstücks kochen kann und seine Lebensmittel im Kühlschrank aufbewahren kann. Natürlich ist man selber dafür verantwortlich sein Geschirr anschließend zu spülen, wie gesagt es ist kein Hotel. Wenn man andere Leute verschiedener Nationalitäten kennenlernen möchte, kann man das hier auf jeden Fall machen, schon beim Frühstück oder im gemeinsamen Aufenthaltsraum mit Fernseher und Couch kommt man schnell ins Gespräch. Besonders für junge Leute ist das hier eine perfekte Unterkunft, aber da alle sehr aufgeschlossen sind, wird jede Altersgruppe hier zufrieden sein. Es gibt keinen eigenen Parkplatz aber in den umliegenden Seitenstraße haben wir im März problemlos einen kostenlosen Parkplatz gefunden. Im März sind aber noch nicht so viele Touristen unterwegs, deswegen kann es in den Sommermonaten anders sein.
• Silvia (10/5): Ottima esperienza! -
• Jennifer (8/5): Friendly hosts, great location - Location showee Friendlly staff Bring ear plugs
• Sheila (10/5): Great hostel with exceptional friendly staff. Very clean and quiet. Great location and easily accessible to everything! - The staff was wonderful especially Arnica . Very helpful. It was wonderful . Only the above green light in the room. It made it a little hard to sleep but other than that it's wonderful
• Stanton (9/5): - Great location and covers all the basics for a budget trip. They attempted to separate by gender as much as possible, but it’s not guaranteed.
• Marieke (7/5): -
• B (10/5): -
• Zuzanna (8/5): Great place for a short stay - Was in a good location and even with a bit of a miss understanding about our booking the staff were more than accommodating Property was very cold in the late evenings as no heating was running
• Kylie (8/5): - Location
• Esther Maria (9/5): - The staff here are the absolute highlight—incredibly friendly and genuinely helpful. The kitchen is well-equipped for cooking, and the communal area has a very cozy, welcoming atmosphere. Also, the beds were excellent; soft but still very comfortable. The shower quality needs improvement as the temperature fluctuated between too hot and too cold.
• Conor (10/5): The best hostel I’ve stayed in - I loved everything about it There was nothing I didn’t like
• MartyMurph (8/5): -
• Nicole (8/5): A cosy stay in a great location - Great location with a homely vibe Quite cold in the rooms and damp bathrooms but fine for a night or two
• Alessia (8/5): -
• Yevgen (10/5): -
• Margaret (10/5): One night in Dingle at the grapevine hostel was everything we needed!! - Perfect location! Beautiful quaint hostel right in the center of all the action but also on a quiet little side street so it’s not loud.
• Lottie (10/5): -
• Charlotte (10/5): -
• Kathy (1/5): Miscommunication with our room reservation. Ended up paying more money for our stay. - Staff were so rude Staff- poor communication, unfriendly very confrontational.
• David (8/5): -
• Aoife (1/5): -
• Veronica Meri Tuuli (10/5): The hostel was charming, worked easily, was cheap - and I slept like a log under warm covers. - The Grapevine hostel was located perfectly in Dingle, just a couple minutes walk from the bus stop and all the restaurants and shops. All the info was up clearly and I didn't really have any questions. They had put recommendations on the wall and painted a map on Dingle Bay on the dining room wall, which made planning the day very easy. The feeling was relaxed and friendly. I slept in a dorm bed and it was the best sleep I had had in a while. A simple breakfast was included, which I found surprising since the stay was very cheap. There isn't really much I think could be better. If I had to be nitpicky, I'd say that the upper dorm beds could have had a better spot for your hand to haul yourself up. But I didn't really have any big trouble with that.
