Accommodation in Dublin
FL Residence
Adult Residential Accommodation (18+)
For adult students who want to live right in the heart of the city, we offer single en-suite rooms in a modern student residence in Dublin city centre with our trusted student accommodation provider. This is a modern student building which houses University students all year round. You'll share a five-bedroom apartment with other FL students, with a shared kitchen and living area, and your own private room with an en-suite shower room, single bed, desk and plenty of storage.
The student residence has great shared spaces too, including a games room, cinema room, gym, study rooms, laundry, courtyards and a roof terrace. It's within easy walking distance of our school, O'Connell Street and the city's main sights, so you can make the most of Dublin during your stay.
We only have a small number of rooms, and they go quickly. We recommend booking early!
Young Learner Residential Accommodation (Mini-Stays)
For Mini-Stay groups, we offer residential accommodation at Clink Hostel, just a two-minute walk from our school. There's no daily commute, so students have more time for lessons, activities and getting to know the city.
Students stay in 4 to 8 bed dorms, separated by gender and shared only with their own group. Group leaders stay on the same floors as their students, and the building has security staff in the evenings. Students are in their rooms by 21:00 each night.
Groups enjoy a full programme, including FL-run evening activities at the school, and our team takes care of airport transfers and helps with check-in and check-out, so leaders can focus on their group.
For more details on supervision, ratios and residential rules, ask your FL business developer or email us at info@flireland.com.
FL Host Family
Living with one of our host families in Dublin is a truly amazing experience. You'll stay in a real home, where you'll be welcomed by the family and looked after for the length of your stay.
We're proud of the care our host families give to our visiting students and group leaders. We work with them all year round, not just in the busy summer months, for our Mini-Stay and group programmes. We have separate families for adults and for young learners.
Our young learner families for Mini-Stays and summer are mainly in north County Dublin, in safe, friendly residential areas. Our adult families are spread across the city.
Getting to school
Our Dublin school is in the heart of the city centre, with excellent public transport links. Students travel unsupervised to and from school by train, bus or Luas, and journeys usually take between 30 and 65 minutes depending on the time of day and the time of the year. As a result of this, our Dublin homestay is best suited to students aged 15 and over, who are ready for independence.
We also welcome younger students aged 12 to 14. For these groups, we can arrange extra support with the daily commute, at an additional cost. Just let us know when booking and we'll work out the best option with you.
Students are never left to figure it out alone. On the first evening, their host family will show them the route and explain which transport to take. Wherever possible, we place students from the same group close to each other so they can travel to school together. Our team is on hand throughout the stay, with an emergency phone available outside office hours, so parents and ETOs can feel confident that students are well supported from day one.
For more details on homestay placements, travel arrangements for younger students or extra commute support, contact our business development team or email us at info@flireland.com.
