Top tips for a bargain Dublin city break Mar 12

With plenty of high quality, cheap hotels to choose from, the “fair city” of Dublin is ideal for short breaks. With museums, art galleries, concert halls and historic attractions galore – as well as some great pubs and restaurants – a city break in Dublin is the ideal way to enjoy your travel rewards points, and even collect more credit card rewards.

Literary enthusiasts should visit 16th century Trinity College during their city break, where writers like James Joyce and Oscar Wilde studied. Other attractions include the Writers’ Museum, Dublin Castle and the National Museum. Temple Bar bristles with heritage buildings, pubs and clubs, while families on short breaks will find cheap hotels near Phoenix Park – home of historic Dublin Zoo. Dublin has plenty of live entertainment venues should they get bored, and no-one should miss a visit to the Guinness Storehouse – Dublin’s most famous family name.

Did you know that you can get free flights to Dublin if you sign up for Lloyds TSB credit cards before the end of April 2010? So long as you’ve spent £10 or more on the Lloyds TSB Airmiles Duo American Express® Credit Card you get by the end of June, they’ll add a 1,500 Airmiles voucher to your Airmiles account (setting one up for you if you don’t already have one). That’s enough for two free flights to Dublin. To use it, just book a night at an Airmiles hotel when you book your flights – there are some great deals on cheap hotels to be had.

Your travel rewards are perfect for a romantic weekend away in Dublin, and by booking your hotel along with your Airmiles flights you can take advantage of some great hotel deals – and earn credit card rewards at the same time.
