    Stephen's Green/Royal College of Surgeons car park most convenient for Grafton Street I'd say.

    Might be easier to stick it in the Arnotts Car Park just off O'Connell street and walk up. It's only a 5 minute walk and will save u getting lost in the one way streets around Grafton Street.

    It really is a nightmare around there, Stick to Parking on the northside (Ilac, Jervis, ect.), and walk over.

    Plus then there's chances for shopping between the Car and the Shops.....

    Would Fleet Street not be easier if coming from the M1? Rather than having to loop around O'Connell Street you could go onto D'Olier Street then turn right onto Westmoreland Street then left into Fleet Street (Temple Bar) car park plus you're closer to Grafton Street.

    You can also park in the car park at Connolly Station; it's just €4 per day at the weekends, it's supervised and always empty. Turn left at the North Star Hotel and you find it. Get a 128 from Connolly to Grafton Street and ask for the shoppers fare, it's a mere 50 cent or you can walk across to Grafton street in 15 minutes.

    This car park is awkward to get into and hard to get out of as it requires a trip up the quays. That said, it's a darn side easier to find than the Surgeons!

    Jervis Car Park is €12 for the day, the car park at Parnell centre (cinema) is €13.50 for the day. Both are much easier to get out of, plus you have good shops on the northside too.

    I've used Fleet St. & found it expensive. I'm not aware of any other special offers in car parks around Grafton St. Drury St. car park is quite handy, opposite Brooks hotel, which is really nice for coffee. There is also the car park at Brown Thomas.

    You could park in Iveragh/|Iveleary road for free and get a number 16 or 16A bus to Dame St or St Great Georges St

    turn right at the third set of traffic lights, park anywhere and return to the lights to get the bus.

    The Irish Life Mall Car Park is handy if you're heading in from or towards the M1 direction, it's a 5 minute walk over to Grafton Street from there.

    Brown Thomas car park on Clarendon Street is the most convenient. Access via Wicklow street.
