    128 bus will take you directly from Connolly Station (just up from the LUAS stop) to the top of Upper Rathmines Road. From there turn right along Highfield Road and St Lukes is on the left - about a 10 minute walk.

    Coming back the buses leave from Palmerston Park. From Highfield Road continue straight on rather than turning onto Upper Rathmines Road - the terminus is straight ahead.

    The timetable is here - buses take about 25 minutes to get from Clongriffen to Connolly Station.

    Hi Ruth,

    The Dublin Bus website indicates that one bus would be sufficient.

    Option 1: The 14a.

    Walk for 10 minutes to D'Olier Street/O'Connell Bridge.
    Hop off at the junction of Upper Rathmines Road and Highfield Road (ask the driver).

    Walk another five minutes.

    Option 2: The 15a or 15b

    Walk for 5 minutes to Eden Quay (North Quays near O'Connell Bridge).
    Hop off in Rathgar Village at the junction of Rathgar Road and Highfield Road (ask the driver).

    Walk another five minutes.

    The nearest Luas stop is Cowper Road but there would be about a 10 minute walk up Palmerston and Highfield Roads to get to St. Luke's.
