Unsure whether to put this hotel into budget or mid-range, we've plumped with the latter springing, as it has, from the former Jury's chain. The group may have inherited a well-known brand, but D4's philosophy is to sell low and sell lots. Which means you get fantastically located rooms for a fraction of normal Ballsbridge rates. The original grandeur may have faded, but you can't beat these credit crunching prices (though try telling that to neighbouring hotels). A bus stop right outside connects you with the city and airport. Three names on one site and a selection of drinking and dining options offer plenty for your buck.

Room Only: Single/Double/Twin/Family: €44-199/Suite €99-239.
