The room was spotless. Excellent quality bed and bedding. Great coffee machine and homemade brown bread and homemade marmalade. The offering of continental breakfast was second to none with fresh fruit yogurt’s cheese and pastries. Great location and very relaxing environment great nights sleep. The owner was extremely friendly and helpful.
The host was quick on the messaging system to answer my questions and very kind during the stay

The room was beautiful and very clean. The host was there to greet us and showed how everything works. Breakfast was great also. The best thing about Avoca House were the friendly owners who helped with everything and made us feel very welcome.
The owners were awesome, so personable and helpful. For an American, our room and bathroom in the 3rd floor was a little tight on space but manageable. Breakfast invluded homemade strawberry jam and homemade molasses-sweetened bread!
Fantastic guest house, in a peaceful location, spotlessly clean and decorated to a high standard. Great room, comfy bed so slept well. 5-10 mins stroll from the bus stop, 30 mins on bus from Temple bar area. Continental breakfast with a choice of breads, croissants, cheese, yoghurt etc. Nice freshly brewed coffee. Our host Jack is a very interesting man to talk with. Should we revisit Dublin I wouldn't think twice about staying here again.
Lovely stay at the Avoca house at the start of our trip! The hosts were incredibly welcoming, and the area was very peaceful. A nice walk into Dublin center (about 30 minutes), perfect to feel close to the city but in a quiet oasis just outside!
The house has been renovated beautifully. I really appreciated being able to park our rental car, no fuss. The self-serve coffee machine is fabulous. One thing that was lacking for me was a bit of protein for breakfast. I like a full breakfast.
Avoca House is tastefully done and well-managed. The host was extremely helpful when I arrived, giving me details about the house and the area. My room was nicely appointed, quiet and very comfortable. I highly recommend this property!
We had a great stay, the B&B is clean and well presented, a modern room with all the necessities you need and a comfortable bed, down a quiet residential street in a nice area with some good bars and restaurants near by. Easy walk into the centre and good transportation links to airport and the city centre. We were looked after well and felt very welcome during our stay. Thank you.
Hosts Jack and Audrey were so nice, friendly and helpful. Room and bathroom so clean and fresh, modern decor, bed so comfortable, breakfast in the morning very good, we could help ourselves to anything in the fridge and what was laid out on the table. Lovely residential area, only 30 mins walk into Dublin centre.
I spent two nights a this b&b. You get to check in early and are meet by the most lovely host. I got the top room with is lovely BUT if you mind heat this roome is not for you. Its very hot! Good breakfast, all imøn all as expected 👍🇧🇻🇮🇪
The property was nicely located between Drumcondra and Glasnevin area with access to busstops at both, easy buss access to the airport, and also a Budget Avis car rental at a walking distance. Self serve breakfast with options, willingness to make accommodations for allergies and intolerances, and couple of decent pubs within walking distance for dinner options.
Although a bit cumbersome with luggage on the bus, we chose this place due to accessibility to the airport and Dublin using the bus system. Hosts were very welcoming and attentive with good suggestions (we enjoyed eating at Fagans). Location convenient to a Tesco which we needed when luggage was delayed. Host provided a filling continental breakfast along with the best gluten free bread I've ever had. Beautiful flowers in garden space.
We spent only few days at Avoca House and we enjoyed our time. Staff very nice helped us to reach the House easily by bus from the airport, located in a quiet and silent area, large and very comfortable bed and rich breakfast. Few steps from the station we visited also Howth for a wonderful lunch of fresh fish, next to the sea, we were also lucky to see some seals. Nice memories. Thank you.

Avoca House was a great balance to the busy center of Dublin. Being near the Botanic Gardens made for a nice walk interval after arrival on the red-eye flight and nap time! The bed was wonderful. When we awoke, we were refreshed enough to get the bus (7 minute walk from Avoca) into the Temple Bar area for dinner and a stroll through the high-energy neighborhood. The taxi home was under 20 euros.
Breakfast was VERY satisfying with many coffee options.
The host, Jack Turner, was welcoming and informative.
Jake and his family are just amazing -incredibly helpful and friendly. We were in a difficult situation when we arrived as our daughter's accomodation in a different part of the city ( for 3 months) turned out to be a nightmare. Thanks to Jack and his family's support everything is fine now and our daughter is safe and sound in a lovely flat. We can't express how thankful we are!!!! Thank you so much!! Our room in Avoca house was absolutely tidy and very cosy and quiet!!! We immediately felt at home. Apart from that, breakfast was included in the price and really good. We are looking forward to coming back soon.
Highly recommended. Jack and Audrey are lovely, friendly people. Bonus was their dog Chilli. The house is beautiful and well maintained.
Our only niggle was a water pump that ran quite a bit. We could hear it in our room. We stayed in room 1. It didn’t bother my heavy sleeper husband but was a challenge for me the light sleeper. We mentioned it to Jack and he was going to take care of it.
Breakfast was serve yourself which was really convenient.
Heads up. No hair conditioner is provided. Bring your own if needed.
Colazione varia e preparata con cura, camera pulita e silenziosa, padrone di casa accogliente e disponibile con un cagnolino meraviglioso. Casa collegata molto bene con i mezzi pubblici, sia al centro città che all’aeroporto.
