Hello everyone,
Need little advise.
Flying in to Dublin at 2pm and next day flying out at 11am. Want to stay for night in charming neighborhood where we can may be enjoying some good food, Irish music, little shops. May be not too far from the center of town.

Any advise would be highly appreciated!
Thank you!

Grafton Street is well known for its great vibe, so perhaps somewhere around there in the centre of the city.

'Charming neighbourhood' might be somewhere like Stoneybatter (can't speak to potential accom options but there are some nice restaurants and it is near The Cobblestone for live music) and another might be Ballsbridge which might qualify as charming and and has some hotels and restuarants and is not a million miles from O'Donohues. Look around maybe Harcourt St. Rathmines?

Glasnevin, near the Botanic Gardens,
Malahide village though a bit far out from town
and second Stonneybatter.

Have you been to Dublin before? If not, I'd recommend staying near Trinity College, the Temple Bar, Molly Malone Statue, and in that general vicinity. It's close to the buses that go to the airport and there's great food and music around as well as some famous Irish landmarks. You'd get the most out of your layover.

I would disagree that Temple Bar is a 'charming neighbourhood'.

Temple Bar is definitely NOT a charming neighbourhood. Noisy, dirty, busy, and at night it can be the pits.

Just poor form to advertise. And badly written.
