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.

A Very Special Experience, truly 5 star
We have just spent a wonderful weekend at the Merrion with our two teenage children, We had previously eaten in the wonderful Garden Room for dinner for special family occasions however this was our first stay. What a truly special experience. Over the years we have been lucky enough to stay at some wonderful hotels all round the world, The Merrion now for us sets a new standard in perfection. The hotel itself is of course beautiful, from the wonderful Garden Room for dinner, (a special thank you to our excellent waiter and the very welcoming F&B Manager there) to the the stunning art collection, It is hard to believe you are in the heart of Dublin City yet you can return back to the Merrion, Peaceful, calm and considered. Service is wonderful, welcoming and warm. I cannot recommend this hotel enough if you are looking for a perfect stay in Dublin. Thank you, We will be back.

Magical Engagement in The Merrion ✨
Thank you so much to the staff at The Merrion for making our engagement so special. Catherine went above and beyond for us and helped my now fiancé plan everything for the proposal. I couldn’t have asked for a more special location and we are eternally grateful to Catherine for her help and her photography skills! 🥰

A true 5 star experience
We'd previously had afternoon tea and dined at the Merrion but decided to stay a couple of nights this week. In short, fantastic from the second we stepped out of our car out front to the moment we departed. Staff, every single one of them, warm and welcoming while delivering absolutely top class service. We were fortunate to have our room upgraded to a junior suite which was a lovely surprise. We ate breakfast, festive afternoon tea and dinner at the hotel during our stay. I cannot fault the food or service at all during those meals. I can't speak highly enough of the hotel and the staff. We cannot wait to come back!

Delightful Dublin at the Merrion
The Merrion is head and shoulders above most other hotels for many reasons but first and foremost is the excellence of the staff. Genuinely friendly and incredibly helpful. They make it a joy to stay in Dublin.
