Irishandproud Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 That shouldn't be the case, you can search by days of the week, did you try filtering city centre?

HIGHTOWER 1314 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 We are staying at the O`CALLAGHAN MONT CLARE HOTEL at MERRION SQUARE and so is the bus. I was just wondering if our irish friends can tell me if there is any decent bus parking in that area for a 49 seater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hotel has a partner parking lot with a discounted rate that is a short walk away alternatively there is a space outside the hotel if you check with them they may allow you park it outside.My uncle used to work at the Mont Clare.

I spoke to the hotel months ago and they said there was a car park nearby but it couldnt take our bus although they did also say that we could park outside the hotel.The only problem is that we may have to feed the meter which i dont want us to do.

HIGHTOWER 1314 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 (edited) I think outside the hotel there is a pay and display meter according to the hotel but dont want to have to feed the meter all the time. If we can get something sorted covering us for the 3 days that would be good and dont mind paying in advance if need be.Cheers mate Edited October 28, 2014 by HIGHTOWER 1314 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irishandproud Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 How much for a pint of lager/ bottle of beer? Vodka and mixer? I suggest you get the app I suggested called public, if you don't have a smart phone the just go www.publin.ie it's great for seeing where deals are on different days. Pint can cost ya anything from about €5-€6.80(thats temple bar prices I presume you are not stupid enough to go there) all I drink is pints so I can't really comment on other drinks you have asked about, on a good days drinking you definitely won't see much change out of €100 if not more depending on what your drink is. Dublin ain't cheap that's for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might take a tent with me Supply and demand, they ain't stupid, same with flights I'm sure. If you like a couple of km outside the city I'm sure you'll find something s little more reasonable. Did you try ballsbridge? It's a great location for the game and loads of pubs for match day and a stroll to the ground, taxi to town won't cost more than a tenner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irishandproud Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 Tis a great spot especially when you're getting the game in, walking distance to the aviva, very close to baggot St where there are loads of pubs. Personally speaking anyone staying north side of the city when they are here for a game should reconsider, you'll be glad of it when you're here.

Dublin ain't cheap that's for sure How much do you pay for a pint when your out then? What pubs do you frequent? As with most Scots i like a cheap(ish) pint, either that or a right good moan at an over-inflated priced pint!! I have been to Dublin before a few years ago with the burd, she used to live there for a while. Don't expect we will be spending a lot of time in temple bar at those prices. Have been in that area the last time i was there so will have a look at this publin app, cheers for the tip. We stayin in Harcourt hotel, same hotel as last time.

Might take a tent with me I went onto booking.com and reserved accommodation that is a wee bit pricey but it offers free cancellation. I'm now hopeful that prices will fall slightly 3 months before the trip then I can cancel the original accom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
