Long Lane is right in the heart of Dublin city centre -where the Vikings decided to settle when they invaded one thousand years ago. This music-inspired apartment is located here in Viking Dublin just a short stroll from upmarket Stephen's Green and Grafton Street. Long Lane is also just a stroll away from Temple Bar and along the way there you will pass the famous Marsh's Library (founded 1701 and open to the public) and St Pactrick's Cathedral where Handel's Messiah was first performed live, Christchurch Cathedral in the heart of Viking Dublin and Beshoff's famous Fish and Chips shop. Within easy walking distance you will find the world famous Guinness Brewery, Jameson's Whiskey distillery (visitor centre) both of which are Dublin's top tourist attractions. But for those who love live music there is Dublin's famous venue Whelan's just down the street! Tourists from all over the world regularly visit to photograph the venue that has played host to such legends as Jeff Buckley, Nick Cave, Christy Moore, and Peter Buck and Mike Mills from REM. In recent years Whelan’s has hosted concerts for important new stars such as Damien Rice, Artic Monkeys and the Magic Numbers. Camden Street and Wexford S'treet are in fact two of Dublin's liveliest streets packed with restaurants (BOBO's Irish Hamburgers is a must and so is Eddie Rockets Diner for some American retro), cafes, bars and shops of all descriptions.
