Is Dublin safe for solo female travelers?

Solo travel

I did a solo travelling trip to Dublin in July! Stayed at Clink i Lar hostel which was very lovely with its central location, common spaces, private curtains beds. The hostel was very commercialised though and didn’t feel as warm and friendly as other places I’ve stayed. I did a walking tour, went to the National Leprechaun Museum, did James Joyce Ulysses walking tours and more! It is definitely a lovely location to solo travel too and at the right hostel you can meet people and go to pubs - I definitely recommend Dublin!

Solo travel

I stayed a little over a month in irland and dublin was one of the places i often revisited during that time (I stayed in a village near dublin). Overall I can say that I really like that city. It’s quite small and compact but for a solo travel it has good activities and really cute shops around. I would totally revisit some day.

I stayed 2 days only, it was enough to visit the center and visit The Little Museum of Dublin (with a great guide) 🇮🇪 I walked by day and night and did'nt live any trouble. I recommand ver much this city and I can't wait to go back 👌

Group travel

Dublin was... good. I had a fun time, especially with a group of friends—it’s definitely one of those places where the people you’re with make the trip. That said, it didn’t feel like there was a ton to do. We hit the usual spots, wandered a lot, and honestly spent a fair bit of time just trying to figure out what was worth seeing. My favorite part by far was the Book of Kells experience—super atmospheric, actually lived up to the hype, and made my little history-nerd heart happy. If you're into books, vibes, or just pretending you're in a fantasy novel, it’s worth it. Would I go back? Probably not.

Unsurprisingly it was raining during my stay in Dublin. Ireland's main city was full of pubs with overpriced beer. But one thing I very much enjoyed was the museum of Chester Beatty! Free entry, free toilet, many very interesting things to see and a very lovely rooftop! Totally worth a visit!

Dublin is a European city, safer than others, but with many drug addicts and young kids committing minor crimes and picking on people. I would avoid certain zones, especially at night, like around the main train stations and Tallaght. The South areas (Rathmines, Ranelagh) are generally safer.

I would prefer to be out during the day than during the night. Unfortunately people in the city are becoming more racist because of social/political opinions. I would recommend speaking English where possible to avoid racial abuse in public as people have been targeted when speaking a different language.

I find Dublin city to be very safe as I was raised in the city There are some areas where there are higher crime rates that I wouldn’t walk alone, due to possible anti social behaviour but I’m very aware of these areas

Safe I don’t know But there are a lot of homeless and drug addicts all over the city. They don't do anything, they don't move, but they're always there. Some neighborhoods suck more than others, especially in the north.

My locality is quite safe and I have never experienced anything problematic, although some friends in dublin tell me they have been in situations where they felt unsafe so as a woman I just stay cautious at all times.
