Answer 1

To stay: depends on your budget/who's paying.

Since large multinational corporations work out of Sandyford Ind Est. the hotels there will not be cheap - corporate rates generally aren't.

Couple of hotel names to check for prices from the immediate area:

The Beacon Hotel

Bewleys Hotel Leopardstown

Tram:

Luas (the tram) depot is there so it will be easy for you to get there and back from anywhere

if you need to go elsewhere for a cheaper place to stay (you'll be at the end of the Green Line route):

Buses:

To go into Dublin City Centre, get any bus marked An Lár (confirm with the driver you're going the right way).

To get back to there, take the 114, 46B, or 75 bus.

What to do here depends on how much time you have and what you're into.

If you're here for work, you may not have much time to spare.

If you're not here for work, you may not like to go to shopping malls that I could point you to.
