    Definately Limerick city, the cafes and pubs are great, loads of hidden gems if you go exploring and cater for all tastes.

    Dunfanaghy in Co.Donegal. Lots of forward thinking people live there and it's a very picturesque wee town with lots of lovely shops, cafes and pubs. It hosted an amazing Jazz and Blues festival at the weekend. I love Donegal :)

    Agree with this from, close to home and it's really taken off in recent years. Great to see.

    Dublin is a lovely and massively underrated city that gets too much bitterness thrown at it by folks who often done very well out of what it provides. Has some beautiful spots and a great history and culture.

    This too, moved here a while back and I can't understand why it gets such a bad reputation from the Irish (foreigners seem to love it mostly). It has it's bad areas but so do most large cities.

    Galway City.

    How can you put this in the underrated category? People cream themselves over the place. I'd put it in the overrated category myself.

    Cork and it's inhabitants are consistently rated very poorly by many people on this site but according to Lonely Planet it's one of the best cities to visit in the world.

    There must have been a bumper weekend above in Croke Park with full houses involving the Cork hurling, camogie and men's & women's footballers the weekend the Lonley Planet came to town. The rest of the local population were probably away on holidays themselves.
