Hostel on Smithfield Square with en-suite dorms, private rooms and a family room for four, a bar with shuffleboard and a café for breakfast.

A big hostel in Smithfield
Generator occupies a building on Smithfield Square, the cobbled square in the market district, on the north bank of the Liffey, ten minutes' walk from Temple Bar and close to the Jameson distillery. It has dorm beds with en-suite bathrooms, sleeping four to ten (one is women-only), and private rooms, including a family room for four.
Atmosphere
Downstairs are the café, where breakfast is served, and the Shuffleboard Bar, open from 11:00 to 23:30, with games and activities. It is a place for young, lively people; if you want quiet, ask for a private room on an upper floor. There is luggage storage for leaving your bag on the last day.
How to get there
The Luas tram (red line) stops at Smithfield, in the square itself, and takes you to Heuston station, where the trains to Kilkenny and Galway leave from, and to the centre. The Dublin Express airport coach stops at Arran Quay, five minutes away.
