Clayton Hotel Dublin Airport Central
I only stayed for one night but it was quite nice. Also, the airport is just a quick walk away, so if you don't have a lot to carry, it's very doable.

Arlington Hotel O'Connell Bridge
Fantastic location Everything within walking distance or bus Love that I could open the window, no refrigerator in the room but there is a safe Everything was so clean. But one thing to perhaps update would be the shower curtain, it looked clean just a slight musty scent
