From O'Connell Street - We are 1 mile from O'Connell street and are served by several bus routes and the Red Line LUAS - get off at Heuston Station By Car - We recommend that you park at Heuston Station secure car park.

    Airport

    • Dublin, Ireland(DUB) 10 miles

    • Directions to property:
      From Dublin Airport - Take the 748 Airlink bus to Heuston Station. On reaching Heuston, cross the bridge and turn left, the Gate Lodge is on the left after the next set of traffic lights - about a 3 minute walk. If you are thinking of hiring a car I would not recommend it. As in Dublin there is very little parking and the traffic can be very confusing even for locals ( lots of one way systems). My advice would always be to use public transport in Dublin and hire a car to tour the rest of the island of Ireland.
