Dublin Prices

Mainline spirits cost around €5-6 (depending on bar and time of day), however, should you want a mixer you will have to buy a separate bottle for around €4 as very few establishments serve light drinks on tap.

Dublin, like all major European cities is home to chain hotels to suit travellers looking for good standard mid-range accommodation. Dublin’s celebrated boutique hotels can be surprisingly affordable, with The Clarence offering Superior King Rooms for as little as €189 per room, per night. If travelling in and around Dublin; public transport provides a far more affordable option than taxis, with all-day bus passes costing as little as €6 and tickets on the DART for local Dublin stops also costing very little.
