YOUTH HOSTELS

The community has a Jewish house/hostel for students and young professionals (age 20 - 35). This is in a good location in Dublin, but not suitable for couples. Email irishcom@iol.ie for details.

There are no other youth hostels nearby, the nearest are in the City Centre. Most hostels are mixed rooms (men/women), check in advance. The closest hostel is probably Kinlay House. It is also a direct route from there to Terenure. Check www.kinlayhouse.ie for details.

If you stay in the city centre it will take you at least 1 hour to walk to Terenure. Other closer areas are Rathgar, Rathmines, Terenure and Rathfarnham (make sure to ask how far they are from Terenure Cross!)

NOTE: In the summer accommodation in Dublin is always heavily booked. RESERVE IN ADVANCE! before arriving here.

NOTE: Some hotels use electronic door keys. This can be problematic for use on Shabbat.
