Location

In the heart of Dublin, near major attractions, shopping, and dining

The Alex is conveniently located right in the middle of the action: it is on the corner of historic Merrion Square and Trinity College is just a block away. Many major sights, including Grafton Street, St. Stephen's Green, and even O'Connell Street can be easily reached on foot. There's a train (DART) station and access to several bus lines down the street, but Dublin is small enough to be easily explored on foot.This area of Dublin is known for its Georgian houses, historic sights, and great shopping scene. Trinity College, Ireland's oldest university is a large part of this neighborhood. The college was founded in the late 16th century and has one of the most impressive book collections in Europe, including the Book of Kells. The central location of this hotel makes it one of the most convenient picks in Dublin.- 26-minute drive to the Dublin Airport
