Hotels in Dublin

The Queen

So Im heading to Dublin in 2/3 weeks for a few days, and looking for a nice, yet not expensive hotel. I've looked up on google for city centre hotels but it brings up a huge list, some not even in Dublin! If anyone could just name a few hotels that are in the centre, ie walking distance from arnotts, or o connell st etc.
I was looking at the Comfort Inn in Smithfield. Is that within walking distance to shopping centres?
Thanks very much!

Smithfield to the shopping areas is not a short walk, but not a trek either. It also has the Luas which takes you to the door of the Jervis Centre, though it's usually very full coming into Smithfield.

A better bet for a more central, yet cheap hotel/B&B might be the Celtic Lodge http://www.celticlodge.ie/
or the Days Inn http://www.daysinntalbot.com/ on Talbot Street.

Other central ones, though I don't know the prices, would be Cassidy's on Parnell Square http://www.cassidyshotel.com/,

Wynn's on Abbey Street http://www.wynnshoteldublin.com/,

the Abbey Hotel http://www.abbey-hotel.ie/ and

Hotel Capri on Abbey Street http://www.hotel-ireland.com/hotel-capri/index.html.
