Choosing a hotel in Dublin City comes down to finding a balance between price and location. The most expensive clusters of hotels are found near the tourist areas of Temple Bar (city centre) and St. Stephen's Green (a little further south). Heading away from these areas you can find hotels of similar quality for cheaper, especially as you look towards the 'less touristy' northside of the city. However, you can expect to see a rise in prices again close to Dublin Airport, to the extreme north of the city.
