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 stayed for two nights at The Merrion and wish we had booked additional time. This is truly a luxury 5 star hotel from the front doorman, to the room, to the restaurants, and all the other amenities. It is well located to the central parts of the city. In addition there also excellent restaurants in the area within walking distance. Would highly recommend this hotel.

The Merrion is the gold standard as a luxury hotel. There's never a doubt in my mind when in Dublin, that I will stay at The Merrion.

We had a wonderful stay at The Merrion while celebrating our 10th anniversary. The hotel is beautiful, elegant, and incredibly comfortable, but what really stood out was the service. The staff made us feel genuinely welcome, and the thoughtful anniversary surprise was such a lovely touch. Our room was beautiful, the location was perfect for exploring Dublin, and every part of the stay felt polished without being stuffy. The Merrion helped make our anniversary trip feel especially memorable, and we would absolutely stay here again.

We had a lovely experience starting at the Merrion Hotel and working our way down the island. It was a great start to our trip.
