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
Wonderful experience
My friend and I stayed here for a few nights while visiting Dublin. From the doormen to the desk staff, everyone was wonderful. Our room was large with comfortable beds, a couple chairs for relaxing and a nice big bathroom. The breakfast had a lot of variety. And the garden areas were beautiful for sitting and relaxing in. You forgot you were in a city. Nicely located to explore Dublin.

5 Star Luxury
I had been meaning to leave a review for some time. We enjoyed an incredible stay at The Merrion a while back. The hotel is total luxury from the moment you arrive at their door. The staff couldn’t do enough for us, they were genuinely so attentive and kind. Every detail was just perfect. We enjoyed both breakfast and dinner in our room, which made the whole experience feel extra special. Also, the complimentary chocolates and champagne was such a lovely touch. An amazing stay, one that we always talk about. I don’t think many other hotels will ever come close. We’ll definitely be back.

Understated elegance in historic buildings with excellent location betweeen Merrion Square Park and St. Stephen's Green. Spacious, well stocked room, good spa facilities, 2 restaurants and bars, excellent breakfast and extremely attentive and genial staff. A perfect stay.

Best hotel ever!
Hands down the best hotel experience I have had in my entire life (and I'm 76). World class accommodations, staff, facilities, service, and food. Can't say enough good things about the Merrion

The very best of Irish hospitality.
The Merrion Hotel exemplifies elegance, gracious hospitality, and sophistication. I was made to feel genuinely welcomed even at 5 o’clock in the morning. It enjoys an outstanding location with an easy walks to Saint Stephen’s Green and the national Gallery of Art. What I enjoyed most while staying at the hotel is the remarkable art collection. The hotel offers with a wonderful appreciation for Irish history, art, and culture. My sincerest compliments to Ms. Carberry, Ben, and the entire team at The Merrion. You represent the very best of Irish hospitality. The Merrion is more than a beautiful five-star hotel., and would return without hesitation. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking an exceptional stay in Dublin.
