for the all Ireland weekend (16th to 18th)? Everywhere seems to be fully booked or wanting 250 euro's a night :confused: Anybody got any tips on where I could stay.

Cheers if you can help

If I was you, I'd try ringing the Comfort Inn, Smithfield on (353) 14850900
It's new so it might not be over booked.

Remember though that the Dubs might be a bit píssed off about not being in the final. ;)

I stayed in the Paramount (http://www.paramounthotel.ie/) before and thought it was fine. Not badly priced and usually had rooms.

If all else fails, you could try the Beacon Hotel (http://www.thebeaconhoteldublin.com/) out in Sandyford.
It's at the end of the Luas line...

God I did work experience there when I was in college but left coz they wouldnt let me work with my nose pierced....loved it tho coz got in free to Fibber Magees everynite during college then! I only lived over the road so was dead handy. But yeah its a bit of a kip.

The Ardmore in Finglas is nice and reasonably priced....not sure on avail tho.

The Clarence is my hovel of choice tho!

When were you going to Fibbers?

The reason I call the Clarence a hovel is coz I got a bad cold from staying there! Got soaked walking back from Point seeing Moby and they only had feather pillows and duvets so only had a sheet and dressing gown to keep me warm. Ended up really sick!

Went to fibbers from 92 to 94.

I should hope not!!! Was a respectful married woman in 95! But had it been prior to my 94 wedding its quite likely to have been me!

cheers for the recommendations everyone - I tried most of em but all were booked. I've managed to wrangle a place for me and my dad that isn't that pricey. I just need a ticket now!!!!
