    Where can a cheap room in Dublin be booked?

    Every online search brings up dorm beds in hostels but a private room is needed.

    It's for one person in mid-October.

    You may need to either rethink your definition of 'cheap' or rethink your definition of 'Dublin'

    Like how cheap? Dublin is probably one of the most expensive cities to get a hotel room in now. The cheapest room I get for tonight is €88 on Booking.com.

    Try airbnb. Is there an event on in Dublin when you're looking to book?

    What do you need? What area? What date?

    Will have a root around.

    AirBnB is probably your best bet. Try get one that's in a real person's house, not one of the buildings just jammed with bunk beds, with nobody actually living there, except AirBnBers.

    Prices do look high but there is a hotel hidden away about 15 mins from the city centre and its showing a single room for 169, B and B for those two nights.

    The West County Hotel.

    A few AirBnBs fitting in to the 50 a night budget, some even with a private bathroom and close to the city centre.
    Booking out fast though.
