GENERATOR HOSTEL
Go there and contact
One of the best hostels in Dublin, located in a moving neighborhood Smithfield, with a young and festive atmosphere.
This hostel of the famous Generator group is the biggest in the city with no less than 530 beds. If the building which shelters the hotel is old, and even classified, the interior of the hostel is very modern and well looked. Each floor has its own decor and colourful murals. The music is always on loud; on the ground floor, there are armchairs, sofas and computers with free Internet access, a "study" area and a cafeteria. A few steps down are a bar, two pool tables and a cinema.

Pros: two chargers in bed. Big locker. 24/7 staff
Cons: absolutely no outside food or drink not even a Diet Coke in a bottle. I get they want money at bar but a lot of hostels with bars and food have a tiny kitchen area or let u have outside drinks if it’s just a bottle of something
The main complaint for the hostel was that while we were there, there was a school trip with a large group of teenagers. Despite the hostel saying no minors in the bar after 9, there were big groups of under 18 year olds in the bar area which isn't really the atmosphere you are wanting. Also, from around 11pm-1am, they were consistently running up and down the corridors, knocking on doors and screaming at each other. I get that they have to stay somewhere, but I don't think a party hostel is the place for them. Overall, the generator did what we needed from a stay; it was clean, had great amenities and offered us a place to sleep that was convenient for getting around the city.
