Gracefully created from four restored Georgian townhouses, The Merrion is an historic retreat in the heart of Dublin. Only a tiny brass nameplate marks the hotel's unassuming brick exterior, but inside, marble floors and columns and ornate rococo plasterwork ceilings show off the grand style of 18th century Ireland. Each element of the hotel inspires admiration--from the bedrooms adorned with Irish fabrics and antiques to Restaurant Patrick Guilbaud to the soothing ambience of Tethra Spa. Take time to enjoy the notable works of 19th and 20th century art, considered to be one of the most important private collections in Ireland.

Room was beautiful but small. Breakfast was very poor. Tasteless and cold. Cold buffet selection was excellent. Fruits etc.....Location was perfect.

Always a pleasure to stay in The Merrion. Staff are wonderful, food and beverage always excellent and outside space a tranquil haven in the city. Interiors are warm and welcoming with stunning artwork everywhere. Classy and elegant. One of my favourite city hotels to stay in.

Everything everyone has said about how wonderful this hotel is true. I will be forever thankful to the staff at the Merrion following a nasty bit of shellfish poisoning. To be very clear, the shellfish in question was from an outside restaurant in D6. The staff was super accommodating to allow me to extend my stay even though my room was not available for Saturday night. The team called to check-in on me in the morning and in the early evening, and they even sent a porter to pick-up a handful of supplies from the pharmacy for me. While this was a super miserable way to spend time at an amazing hotel, in one of my favorite cities, I am thankful it was at the Merrion. I will certainly be back.

Arrived on November 4th from the US. Were met on the steps by Robert who immediately greeted us and attended to our luggage. Into check in-reception which was timely and professional. Up to our room on the 3rd floor that was clean, very spacious and very well appointed. We stayed for two nights before renting a car and proceeding on a road trip to the west coast. Arrived back on the 13th for one last night before heading back to the States. The location is superb, the Merrion Square neighborhood is beautiful and within walking distance of many of Dublin's high points. I cannot say enough about the staff. Every single person we encountered, bellmen, front desk staff, concierge, restaurant, house keeping, every single person was a joy, very attentive and professional. The in house restaurant has a delicious breakfast which we enjoyed every morning, next door is a 2 Star Michelin which we did not try as we preferred to his local pubs and other establishments. As for accommodations, large and clean rooms, beds VERY comfortable (according to our standards) Again I would wholeheartedly recomend his property if you want a top tier 5 Star experience.
