Travel Information

One of the most popular visual attractions in Dublin is the so-called Georgian “Doors of Dublin”. One of the best examples is No. 10 Fitzwillian Street, which is part of the longest unbroken line of Georgian houses in the islands. It is also the home of Longfield’s – one of Dublin’s most distinguished small hotels. It is a tranquil haven for the more discerning and meticulous visitor. It is a great base for expeditions into the heart of Dublin – the fashionable shopping streets, antique shops, cinemas, art galleries, theatres, and museum. It is also a short walking distance from St. Stephen’s Green, Trinity College, Grafton Street, the main cultural attractions in the capital as well as the “bohemian” quarter of Temple Bar. Longfields is known for its attention to detail and superb service and this can be seen the most with the well-furnished bedrooms and reception area and could be best seen in Longfield’s restaurant --- better known under the name No. 10 with the business lunch set and to Dubliners who love dining out. Aside from the great reviews it has been receiving from many restaurant guides, the short distance of No. 10 to government buildings is said to be an “irony” in naming that is well known among the local politicians and on visitors from Britain. Longfields’ very strategic location makes it a wonderful rest stop for travellers who are touring Ireland in a rented car. The location means travellers can easily go to the wonderful destinations in Dublin and the surrounding areas with ease. Car travel is great way to see the country that is not overly commercialised and also allows travellers to feel a sense of intimacy with the country. Car hire companies have great car hire packages that can address the specific needs of most travellers.
