The RDS Dublin
Are you heading to a conference, an event, or a Leinster home game at the RDS and looking for the best accommodation nearby? With the majority of Leinster’s home games coming back to the RDS, there has never been a better time to have a comfortable base right around the corner. The Sandymount Hotel is just a short 10-minute walk from the RDS, and if the weather isn’t suitable for walking, we also offer a complimentary courtesy bus to drop you right at the doors, subject to pre-booking.
The 4-star Sandymount Hotel, located in leafy Dublin 4, offers a range of comfy rooms, perfect for all types of guests attending events and matches at the RDS. We also provide free on-site parking* with complimentary overnight EV charging, plus tasty food and drinks a-plenty at the Line Out Bar, the ideal spot to gather before kick-off and swap opinions after the final whistle. And if you’re bringing a group, we can sort you out with a special rate.
*Free parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis. There is limited parking on major event dates.
The courtesy bus must be pre-booked in advance.
