Rooms & Amenities
Wren Urban Nest offers compact Scandinavian-designed rooms with queen-size Respa beds, blackout blinds, and soundproof windows.

Dining at ALT
ALT Café & Bar serves organic Irish produce in dishes like Cape Malay chicken curry and roast beetroot risotto. Breakfast includes a full Irish spread, artisan cheeses, and fresh pastries.

Sustainability Focus
Ireland's first net-carbon hotel, Wren uses renewable energy, recycled materials, and a zero-waste kitchen. Guest rooms consume 1/10th the water of standard hotels. Filtered water stations replace single-use plastics. The rooftop garden supports local biodiversity, while partnerships with Irish suppliers like Mourne Textiles and Open Hive Bees reinforce eco-conscious practices.
Prime Dublin Location
Situated in Temple Bar, Wren is a 3-minute walk from Grafton Street, Trinity College, and St. Stephen's Green. Nearby landmarks include the Irish Whiskey Museum (500m) and Christ Church Cathedral (1km). The Green Line Luas (tram) at St. Stephen's Green connects to Broom Bridge, while Bus #16 runs to Connolly Station.
Guest Services
Front desk staff provide Wren Guides with local recommendations, from ring-forging classes at Silver Works to comedy nights at The Stag's Head. Early check-in requires booking the prior night. USB ports are standard, but adapters are limited. Nearby Park Rite Drury Street offers 24-hour parking for €16/day.
