10.0More a beautiful Home than a hotel
Piaciuto di piùOur stay at the Aberdeen Lodge for nine days was a unique and lovely experience. We felt the accommodations were much more like staying in someone's beautiful home than being guests in a hotel. This feeling came from the Aberdeen's location nestled in the center of a charming neighborhood with families walking by pushing strollers or walking their children to school. When we arrived, the host, Ann, greeted us on the doorstep of the lodge and brought us into the sitting room for tea and cookies. She shared maps of the local area and of Dublin and circled restaurants, sights to see, and bus and train stops (which were within in five minutes from the Aberdeen). Ann was always gracious and available. We strongly recommend that guests take advantage of the full Irish breakfast option that Ann prepares. Each morning we looked forward to her delicious Irish porridge topped with a generous helping of fresh fruit followed by poached or scrambled eggs. I particularly appreciated Ann preparing my eggs with soy milk. There were also other tasty options on the menu! We loved sitting and eating in the elegant dining room looking out at the beautiful flowers and green lawn of their garden. Often Ann would greet us as we returned in the afternoon or evening after being tourists to ask about our day. Every conversation with Ann was a joy. We highly recommend the Aberdeen Lodge for anyone's trip to Dublin.
