3-star hotels in Dublin
A shortlist of 3-star hotels in Dublin, Ohio, rated by guests and compared on what each one offers. It is for travellers weighing up this suburban base for a short break, a family trip or a work stay.
Staying in Dublin
Dublin, Ohio, is a suburban city in the Columbus area, known for its Irish-themed streets and for the Indian Run Falls park, a short drive from the hotels listed here. Visitors come for a calm base with parking and easy road access, rather than for dense city streets, and the hotels here sit in the business and shopping districts around the interchange of the area's main roads.
The addresses cluster tightly. Five of the eight hotels stand on Upper Metro Place, Upper Metro Pl or Metro Place North, a small office-park enclave where the Embassy Suites, Home2 Suites, TownePlace Suites and Hilton Garden Inn sit almost next door to one another; the Courtyard is on Post Road, close by. The AC Hotel and Hyatt Place are out on Riverside Drive and Parkcenter Cir, and the Holiday Inn Express on Tuttle Crossing Blvd. Couples on a short break, families who want suite-style space and business travellers all fit here.
