Rooms & Amenities
Wren Urban Nest offers compact Scandinavian-designed rooms with queen-size Respa beds, blackout blinds, and soundproof windows. Each room includes specialty coffee from Epilogue Roasters, USB charging ports, and a flatscreen TV. Bathrooms feature bergamot-and-eucalyptus-scented products from The Handmade Soap Company. Rooms vary from snug doubles to twin rooms with city views.
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. The bar stocks Dingle Gin, Teeling Whiskey, and local craft beers. Weekend bottomless brunch offers mimosas with dishes like eggs Benedict.
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.
“In my opinion, this property stands out as Dublin's first net carbon hotel, blending modern design with a strong commitment to sustainability. Its Temple Bar location puts guests within easy reach of the city's cultural heart, while the innovative room technology adds a layer of personalized comfort. I think that the focus on local, organic products, from dining to toiletries, enhances its appeal for eco-conscious travellers.”

I totally loved the location. It was so central, a great base for exploring! the breakfast was also really good, such a delicious way to start the day.
The room was smaller than i expected. It felt a bit cramped with my luggage? the noise from the street at night was louder than i thought, that did make it a little tricky to sleep well.

The location was superb. Shops lined nearby streets. refill stations for water provided refreshment around the clock. i loved the 24-hour reception, a beacon in the night. the bar was a special delight.
my only complaint is that the small room was really small. opening one suitcase was a tight squeeze. i felt that having two large suitcases would be a serious struggle.
