subject: Staying At A Dublin Hotel While On Holiday [print this page] Bed and Breakfast, a term originated in the United Kingdom is a one of its kind in the hotel business. As the name suggests, the Bed and Breakfast, or B&B, offers accommodation and breakfast but not lunch or dinner. These are usually private homes that run the business as a primary or secondary mode of income and are usually small in size, with about 10 rooms or so. The profit motive is usually low.
A B&B can have private guestrooms or suites with private bathrooms or shared bathrooms. The breakfast is served either in the dining room or the guestroom. Most of these establishments are family affairs, although some of them hire external help for cleaning rooms and laundry service. However, it may be noted that the moment a B&B hires external professional help, it goes into the category of inns or hotels.
Some tourists prefer to stay in inexpensive hotels in order to save money. Most tourists allocate a large part of their budget to visit other places and restaurants available in Dublin. There are many options available for people who have a budget to meet. Usually the choice of an inexpensive hotel is made with respect to factors such as mode of transport, places to visit and budget of the visitors.
If your budget is a bit more modest then there is the Kilronan House bed and breakfast in the Georgian quarter of the city; this guest house was built in 1834. This B&B is just around the corner from the main cultural and heritage sites of Dublin, as well as the National Concert Hall. Prices are per room and include breakfast at 78 euros around $100 per room per night, but if you take the three day special then you get room and breakfast for two for around a hundred and thirty dollars; which cuts the price quite considerably.
Additionally establishments like these are owned and operated by people who not only have a passion for hospitality but also for their home, region and country and because of that they are the best reason for booking a bed and breakfast. They offer not only a unique establishment to stay in but will also be able to offer you advice and information about places to visit, including the best local eatery, a store to find unique gifts, and lesser known local attractions that you might like to visit.
A hostel is a great place to stay while traveling through Ireland. These locations provide an inexpensive way to tour the entire country.

One of the best things about Ireland is the beautiful countryside. There are many country farm homes and ancient country homes that have been converted into Dublin hotels. Staying in one of these locations is a fun and exciting way to absorb some Irish history and scenery at the same time. These country accommodations are perfect for someone who prefers a quieter vacation.
