About the Hotel
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.

Reviews for The Merrion
Outstanding experience.
Truly a 5 star experience. Well located and service beyond reproach.

Tired hotel in need of a refresh
My husband and I stayed at this hotel for 2 nights in an upgraded room. It was ok, but the rooms are very tired. Scuffed walls, dated decor, budget bathroom - not what I expected given the price point or high ratings for the hotel. The staff though were lovely and very attentive and the room was clean. Its just too bad the hotel is badly in need of a refresh.

A Delightful Family Holiday
The Merrion was suggested by Amex Travel and we were so happy with this property. From the moment we checked in with Vitalina. We felt at home. The many concierges were amazing and were able to get us sought after tickets to Kilmainham Gaol. The breakfast was delicious and lunch in the cellar was an experience! The gardens are absolutely exquisite. We are thinking of returning to Dublin in the near future and we will ONLY stay at The Merrion.

Fantastic 5-Star Hotel in the Heart of Dublin
The Merrion is a true 5-star hotel in the perfect location in Dublin. We were able to walk to everywhere we wanted to go except for taking a cab to the Guinness Storehouse. The hotel is beautiful and the staff is professional, friendly and helpful. The bed and bedding were fantastic. We stayed in a Garden Superior Room, which was very nice. We especially loved The Cellar Bar for dining - it is gorgeous, with a cozy, relaxing atmosphere, friendly staff, and great cocktails!
