    Shelbourne Hotel or Fitzwilliam Hotel on St Stephens Green, top of Grafton St. Deals to be got at the minute but still might be pricey. About 10 min walk at most to the Olympia.

    Yeap, I'd say Jurys inn Christchurch is your best bet, It's a nice hotel and only a
    5 minutes walk to the Olympia theatre and the Temple Bar area also you have
    the best chipper in Dublin just around the corner :)

    have you thought of Richard Corrigans restaurant/hotel, its on Stepehsn green, so only about 200 metres from the Olympia

    the Westin is nice as wekk, and has a pretty cool cocktail bar underneath it, with a latin night every friday, and yes, its full of south american chicks :D

    Brooks Hotel on Drury street is only 60 seconds from the venue as well, and another decent spot, ive put Djs up there before when i ran a small club night in town back in the day
