Travel Note
Dublin Airport is the closest airport to the venue at Langtons Hotel, it's approximately 1.5hr from the airport. There are direct flights to Dublin via Aer Lingus, Iceland Air, etc. from Pittsburgh, Baltimore, or Washington DC. There are cheaper options available for flights that include a short layover in Iceland or Portugal (approx. 1hr). Flights from DC are a lot cheaper, so we will be driving from Pittsburgh to DC. It is only $10 per day to park your car at a nearby lot or hotel including a free shuttle to and from airport.
Hotel
We will be arriving in Dublin the evening of April 5th and will be spending a few nights in Dublin prior to heading to Kilkenny for the wedding. There are many hotels to choose from in downtown Dublin. We are choosing a hotel that is walking distance from St. Stephen’s Green Park since that is central to many other landmarks and attractions. If you plan on staying in Dublin before heading to Kilkenny, here are some recommendations. Hotels 5 Star 1. The Merrion Hotel 2. Westbury Hotel 4 Star 1. Radisson Blu Royal Hotel 2. Clayton Hotel Charlemont 3 Star 1. Stauntons on the Green 2. Buswells Hotel
Train
The train to Kilkenny from Dublin is most likely the cheapest option ($20-$25). The train is approximately 1hr and 25min.
Rental Car
For those who would like a little more traveling flexibility, renting a car is very affordable in Ireland ($30-$50 per day). We will be taking the train to Kilkenny from Dublin, and then renting a car through Enterprise at Kilkenny Airport so we can explore different cities, landmarks, and attractions in Ireland.

Travel Note
Tipping in Ireland, for the most part (there are exceptions) is completely optional and entirely at your discretion. When to tip: It’s pretty standard to leave between a 10 and 15% tip in places where you’ve had a meal (e.g. restaurants, pubs and cafes). If you're part of a large group, a service charge may be added to your bill so check before tipping. When it's not necessary: In a Pub - it isn't the norm to tip the person that’s serving you a drink. They won’t expect it so don’t stress about it. However, if you're receiving table service it would be custom to leave a small tip.
