Luggage storage around Grattan Bridge

If you're crossing Grattan Bridge with a suitcase or daypack and want to stop for photos, food, or just a wander along the Liffey, you'll need your hands free.

Trinity College has no visitor parking at all, though public transport reaches Temple Bar and the Ha'penny Bridge fairly directly. Dublin Castle is closed to the public from 5 May to 31 December 2026 for the EU Presidency, so don’t plan on dropping anything there either. Temple Bar itself is a cultural and entertainment district with pubs, restaurants, galleries, and street performances, so you may prefer to explore it hands-free. The Ha'penny Bridge is one of Dublin's most iconic historic landmarks and a scenic photography spot, though crossing it with luggage can be awkward. Temple Bar Gallery + Studios is a 5-minute walk from the Jervis Luas Red Line stop, so you can reach that area without carrying bags far.

Getting to the bridges with luggage

Temple Bar itself is well covered by public transport, with the Luas Green Line stopping at Westmoreland or Trinity and the Red Line at Jervis, plus several Dublin Bus routes through the area. For the Ha'penny Bridge specifically, Jervis on the Red Line is the closest tram stop, just a short walk away.

O'Connell Bridge sits a little north-east of Grattan Bridge — a road crossing known for being wider than it is long. O'Connell Street is served by its own Luas tram stops, O'Connell GPO and O'Connell Upper, and is also accessible via nearby DART stations like Tara Street and Connolly.

If you're arriving from further afield, Connolly Rail Station handles InterCity, Enterprise and commuter services to the north, north-west, south-east and south-west of Ireland.

Nearby sights and their own bag rules

Dublin Castle is roughly a 5-minute walk from Trinity College, but the castle campus is closed to the public from 5 May to 31 December 2026 for the EU Presidency. Dublin Castle is accessible via bus routes stopping on Dame Street, Lord Edward Street, and George’s Street, or by the Luas tram at St Stephen's Green or Jervis stops.

St Stephen's Green Park is a historical park and garden in Dublin city centre that is free to enter, and the Luas Green Line terminates at the St Stephen's Green stop, which is located at the park. Trinity College Dublin doesn't offer visitor parking on campus, so plan to arrive on foot or by public transport if you're heading there.
