All guest rooms in the guest house are fitted with a kettle, espresso machine and fridge. Each room also includes a private bathroom and free WiFi.

I’ve stayed 2 times at this accommodation. I like it. This stay, my room was not as clean as before… very dusty and mold on shower mat. I mentioned these to the staff I happened to see and they immediately cleaned it. Actually, the staff person was extremely accommodating!!However, they forgot to dust.😂 It’s a short but straight shot to city center by bus and 30 min to the town center. The bed is comfy and the shower is hot with lots of pressure. The fridge in the room is handy too! There is a supermarket and pubs close as well!

Pauline and Justin were the kindest, most welcoming hosts we've ever stayed with. They made our weekend so much more enjoyable and made us feel like part of the family! They offered recommendations for local bars/restaurants, helped us drop our bags early (and even brought them to our room), and explained the St. Patrick's Day parade route to us!

    I loved the cozy, atmosphere at St. Aiden's Guesthouse. It was charming, with a lovely front yard and iron gate, visible signage and a beautiful front sitting room, replete with fireplace, a lovely view to the front yard, gorgeous ceilings, wallpaper, and chandeliers. Marie welcomed me with tea and biscuits, and explained everything I would need to know about my stay.
