Clontarf is 5.5 km from Dublin City Centre
Clontarf is situated 5.5 km from the City Centre, and the Solar House is 5 minutes walk from the bus stop. This is served by 8 bus routes on special corridors and it takes 15 minutes to and from Lr. Abbey St. in the City Centre. We are 10 minutes walk from the Dart (Light Rail Transport System). These run every 7 to 10 minutes at rush hours and 15 to 20 minutes at other times. They take 10 minutes to reach the Centre of Dublin. The Dart also has a special bus connection to the Airport and Euston Station. The Eastpoint Business Centre is one stop away on the Dart and the International Financial Services Centre is only two stops away. This makes the Solar House an ideal location for business people staying in Dublin for a short time, or relocating to Dublin (while searching for more permanent accommodation). The Solar House is also ideal for mature students studying English or on other courses in Dublin. |
