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.

Love this hotel, we stayed for 2 nights and the service and overall experience was excellent. Staff could not do enough for you. Breakfast was great. (Can recommend the Irish brekky) special shout out to Stephen who was super friendly and helpful. Oh and check out the cellar bar, very cool and again full of super friendly staff.

This is truly an incredible hotel. The location is perfect for a visit to Dublin (right near St. Stephen's Green), and the facilities are great. But it is the staff that really makes it amazing. Every single person we encountered was pleasant and happy to help make our stay enjoyable however they could. In particular, the concierge staff made our visit to the city remarkable. From dinner recommendations, to activities and making reservations, to helping us modify our plans due to the trains not being in service (shoutout to Derek), they were instrumental in our having an incredible trip.

This hotel is incredible. It feels more like a private house than hotel. Beautiful surroundings, Great bars and restaurants but the biggest thing is the service. Often you feel that a nice hotel is comfortable but usually a bit lacking in all the small niceties you would really like. Not here. They go above and beyond in everything they undertake. We asked about a picking in Merrion Square park and they arranged everything for us including a blanket to sit on. No detail is too small. The pool is very relaxing with steam room and sauna and once again just an incredibly helpful welcoming staff. This is an expensive hotel but worth every penny!

A good hotel with personalised touch and friendly people. I would stay at this hotel again. Definitely a must stay for art lovers. Their gifts to us were truly amazing. For someone who likes old Georgian architecture I would recommend main building.

There is nowhere in Dublin that meets the standard of the Merrion Hotel. A one night staycation there feels like a long weekend anywhere else! From moment you arrive to the wonderful Merrion welcome, no detail is left to chance. I mentioned in pre-check in email that I was arriving early to have a bath before going out - and found a jar of bath salts ready for me on the side of the bath! Its the little details! The Merrion Turn Down service is something else - it is a wonderful treat to arrive back to your room to find everything so neatly arranged, right down to phone cables and chargers in their new Merrion Hotel chord straps, and the linen laid out for your toiletries. Now the only issue is trying to find an excuse to book in again, and soon!
