What people underestimate here: Dublinhotels mostly can't put a family of 4 in one room, so the stay figure above is priced for two. A per-night rate you see quoted elsewhere will likely need doubling.

Is your budget enough?

Is CA$7,000 enough for a family trip to Dublin?
Not for this trip. Dublin starts around CA$7,375 for 4 people over 7 nights, so CA$7,000 would leave you short before you've spent anything on the ground.
Is CA$8,000 enough for a family trip to Dublin?
It can work, but it depends what you book. CA$8,000 sits inside the CA$7,375–CA$10,462 range — the cheaper end means compromises on flights or location, not bad luck.
Is CA$9,000 enough for a family trip to Dublin?
It can work, but it depends what you book. CA$9,000 sits inside the CA$7,375–CA$10,462 range — the cheaper end means compromises on flights or location, not bad luck.
Is CA$10,000 enough for a family trip to Dublin?
It can work, but it depends what you book. CA$10,000 sits inside the CA$7,375–CA$10,462 range — the cheaper end means compromises on flights or location, not bad luck.
Is CA$11,000 enough for a family trip to Dublin?
Comfortably. CA$11,000 clears the top of the CA$7,375–CA$10,462 range, which leaves room for a better location or a direct flight rather than the cheapest one.
