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 arrived as strangers and left as friends of the extraordinary staff at the Merrion. We stayed with extended family in the penthouse for 5 glorious days. From the moment we arrived, we were made truly welcome. The rooms were exquisite, cool and comfortable but polished - and filled with antiques and artworks. The food for room service, the cellar pub and the artsy high tea was all delicious. Pastry chefs designed pastries that recall the various artworks in the Merrion - amazing. Fiona O’Grady embodied Irish hospitality as the manager of the dining room. We loved talking with her every morning! The gardens off the dining room and all around the hotel are gorgeous and meticulously maintained, a joy for a gardener to see. They helped arrange a variety of tours and meals in Dublin that were all spot on. Just the best in 5 star hotels!

The warmest hospitality imaginable. The concierge helped me schedule great day trips from Dublin. My room was large and beautiful, with a gorgeous marble bathroom.

We just got married last weekend. The hotel staff went above and beyond to make our day memorable! From being greeted by the doormen to the waiters to the house keeping to the chief to the wedding co-ordinator - they were all so approachable, friendly and organised! They all made our day run so smoothly and we are so delighted we chose to have our wedding here! The service was 10/10 and loved all of the small touches - we felt like royalty!! Thank you !
