There is nowhere specific but we obviously don't want to go there and find that only the rubbish places let you in. If anyone can suggest any good bars and clubs then I can contact them directly via e-mail to check on their policy. What the best area to go to in a night out in Dublin? There are some sites that do an inclusive package for Dublin you have a health farm day and a meal on the one night, then on the second day you get a shopping trip and VIP entrance to some of the top bars and clubs in Dublin, wasn't sure if this would maye the safer option as you are guaranteed to get in then.
If anyone has any comments or suggestions all would be gratefully appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks Sunworshipper!!
The two main areas really are the temple bar area, which has places like "Bobs" and the harcourt st/camden st area.
Is there is big price difference with the all inclusive package?
Is there is big price difference with the all inclusive package?
The all inclusive package is £189 excluding flights, flights from Birmingham are £67 return. The hotel on their own are from £49 pp and are situated just outside Dublin city centre
There is a website called http://www.dublinks.com that lists entertainment int he city. A link on this is http://www.dublinks.com/index.cfm/loc/11/pt/11.htm which lists the bars and venues and their contact details. A read of this may help you out. Its a tough one re the all inclusive or not. The health spa and that sounds good and may be a useful with a large group to keep everyone together and the momentum going and saves hassle but it could limit you a bit.
Have a look at that site anyway see if its any help to you

I was just wondering how they are about letting you into the bars and clubs if you are dressed up. We were going to have matching t-shirts one night and dress up the next.

I d say you should get in ok, its always best to approach the bouncers in small groups. Another good suggestion is def to go early as they get more picky as night goes on..
Thanks sunworshipper your advice has, as has everyone elses, been fantastic. 
You have made making my decision lots easier, I am now in the prosess of getting money off everyone ready for booking the flights.

My daughter is looking for a quiet but fairly central B&B / Guesthouse for a couple of nights in October. Any recomendations?(or ones to avoid!)
Having been to Dublin last month myself, I don't think that 'quiet' and 'central' go hand in hand.
If you want central (e.g. Templebar area) be prepared to put up with the constant street noise from cars and party-goers.
If you can put up with that, I suggest the Blooms Hotel right in the centre of Dublin - click this link for a couple of reviews.

Thanks for that, Mark, unfortunately Blooms is too expensive! They are looking for a cheapish B & B rather than a Hotel - sorry, I should have been more specific.
I said 'central' - walking distance or short bus ride to centre would be great.

Not really a B&B as such but good value and very central is Days Inn, Talbot Street. It's a clean, basic hotel (similar to Travelodge/Premier Inn) in easy walking distance of Temple Bar and most of Dublin.

Yes i've used both the bus and taxis. Obviously a taxi is a bit quicker and i've used that when i'm pushed for time but the bus is reliable and cheap (especially if you buy a return).
Both taxis and the shuttle bus are clearly signposted as you exit the airport. Can't remember the bus fare but it wasn't much, just a few euros.
