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.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Merrion hotel. It was our first night in Ireland and the entire staff and the hotel itself gave us a wonderful welcome. We were perfectly located near one of the best pubs, one of the most beautiful parks and some beautiful sights. We were also nicely removed from the bustling city clamor. We stayed two nights in another hotel on our return through Dublin and it did not compare.

Great location, above average service, the room was comfortable and spotless after each cleaning.

The Merrion is gorgeous inside. While modest on the exterior it is lavish once you enter. The staff is eager to assist and generous with their time. There are art pieces on the walls that can keep you busy while sipping a most incredible martini. Fires crackle in multiple rooms makes for a homey atmosphere while the piano is played in the late afternoon. The gardens in between the buildings are serene while in the heart of Dublin. It's an amazing property.

What’s not to like about this fantastic understated five star hotel. From a minute you walk in you know you’re in a special place. Everybody takes great care of you and the Hotel hits all levels of great service from check-in to check out to made service to Restaurants to Bars to Bellmen to porters. Lots of nice small touches that make the stay really special. We would only stay here when we come back. That’s how great this place is.
