About

The Marilyn Mansion Hotel - Dublin

The Marilyn Mansion Hotel sits on Garville Avenue in Dublin's Rathmines district, a residential area known for its calm streets and period architecture. This 1-star guest house keeps things simple: carpeted floors, heating in every room, and Wi-Fi that reaches throughout the property.

Check-in runs from 2 PM to 11:30 PM, and check-out is at 11 AM. The guest house does not allow pets. With a review score of 6.2 out of 10, it doesn't promise luxury, but the location and friendly service are recurring positives in guest feedback.
