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
The best of the best.
Friendly welcome by professional, helpful staff from the time I got out of my taxi until departure three days later. I’ve stayed at hotels for business and pleasure for 50 years and the Merrion is by far my favorite. The hotel ambience, cleanliness, technological features, restaurants, fitness facilities and casual meeting rooms are all splendid but the exceptionally capable, friendly staff sets the Merrion at the front of a very long list of fine hotels in which I’ve stayed from Asia to North America, South America and Europe.

The hotel is first rate!!!!!. I highly highly recommend staying here when you’re in Dublin.
The second our cap pulled up to the hotel we were greeted by the bellman. The check artist was super easy. Everyone at the hotel is friendly. I’m very happy you’re there. There were three of us. The room was extremely large. The bathroom also is very roomy. The breakfast is outstanding. We ate at the cellar one night for dinner. It is such a cool restaurant and the food was fantastic. I use the spa and got a wonderful massage. My husband used the gym. He said it was the best one on the trip check out was made extremely easy. Also, I highly highly recommend staying at this hotel.

The friendly Hotel
We made an error on the date of our online booking. The front desk people made sure we got a room. The guest supervisor heard that we staying as my wife was having elective surgery the next morning. She arranged a special present left in our room. How thoughtful. We have stayed in the Merrion many times before and have always enjoyed it. The staff are wonderful.

We recently spent two nights at the Merrion, our first trip to Ireland. It was the perfect beginning to a perfect stay in Ireland. The location, the staff, the breakfast, the friendliness and helpfulness of everyone we met at the hotel. Honestly, a wonderful experience. Absolutely will return.
