Fiona Edwards is an excellent host. She created a very nice, homey atmosphere and served delicious food (homemade scones for breakfast every day!)
Our Host Family was perfect. We have been in Patrica house. It was perfect. the food was delicious. The best were the desserts, we have never eaten better ones. The atmosphere was great and the evenings with our host lady were the best. The house is beautiful and the dogs are the cutest in the world.We would recommend such a trip to everyone! Thank you Patrica (Joshephine)😊🥰Nikola, Weronika, Marta
Big thanks to Marica for helping me find such a lovely room! She was super helpful and kind throughout the whole process—honest, chill, and really made things easy. I’m so happy with the place.
Our host family was very kind and it's been a great atmosphere. Nestor and Lorna took care of us in every matter: doing the laundry, preparing delicious dishes and snacks for the college, changing the bedsheets, ...
We felt safe and welcomed and were happy about the good relationship with our host family. We even spent couple of evening together having dinner while telling funny stories. The three weeks went by so fast and we appreciate it the effort family Rena put into their work!

We were incredibly lucky to be placed with Tommy and Pat in Ireland. It was a wonderful experience. They were warm, welcoming, and made us feel like part of the family from day one. The house was clean, cozy, and comfortable, and they were always happy to help or chat. We are truly grateful and highly recommend them to anyone looking for truly welcoming home and unforgettable memories from Ireland.🇮🇪 ☘️

A nice home 40m away from city center, different combination of public transports is possible. The owner is kind and supportive. She will do her best to make you comfortable and create moments of conviviality. "Only English rule" means she helps you improve your language skills "Volente o nolente".

This was my first year hosting for HFDI, we hosted 2 fantastic Italian girls, Eva and Elena. They were polite, friendly and good fun, perfect house guests. HFDI were super to deal with, efficient, well organised and quick to respond. The plans for travel went so smoothly, both my husband and I and the 2 students found the experience very very positive. Looking forward to hosting again 😉
Hosted a very creative kind and respectful student for 3.5 months . The support advice and information from Host Family Dublin was brilliant would highly recommend hosting with this company. Paulina the organiser was so helpful. Highly recommend

Laughter, Rain, and Magic with Anne ❤️
In 2024, I made the decision to travel to another country and another continent. I was very nervous and scared. Then I arrived at Anne’s house in Lucan! Oh God, what a wonderful woman, truly—kind, sweet, and charming! Her house is also lovely. Lucan is a very beautiful place, full of green areas. Her house is excellently located, and there is a minimarket nearby for anything you might need in a hurry. Honestly, I loved living there. I couldn’t have had a better stay anywhere else. She was like a mum, a sister, and a friend! One of the things I was saddest to leave behind in Ireland was definitely not living with Anne anymore! I will always recommend her, not only because she is wonderful, but also because she always cares. The day I arrived, she showed me the place and then we went to the supermarket! I just can’t explain how lucky you would be to live with her! ❤️❤️❤️
Derek and Isabel
This year in Dublin wouldn’t have been the same without Derek and Isabel. Their warmth and hospitality made us feel like part of the family from the very beginning. Staying in their home was truly a special experience. I couldn’t recommend it more!

The best experience of my life
Isabel and Derek are the most welcoming people I’ve ever met, they make you feel at home from the very begining. I’d really recommend going with them because, for me, they were key to making this experience the best in my life!
