incredibly luxurious
Set in a series of restored Georgian townhouses and instilled with Irish history, The Merrion offers an incredibly luxurious base at the heart of Dublin’s city centre
Oozing old-world elegance, the genteel rooms and suites come beautifully appointed in neutral shades and vintage furnishings. The interiors throughout have a comfortable, welcoming feel aided by plenty of plush patterned couches and open log fires. Walls are adorned with European art, including pieces by Robert Ballagh and Roderic O’Conor, whilst the two sumptuous gardens are 18th century inspired with their neatly trimmed box hedges, fountains and meandering pathways.
Alongside impeccable service from the staff, the dining options at The Merrion are outstanding. Choose from modern Irish cuisine at The Garden Room, gastro-pub fare at The Cellar Bar (housed in the original 18th century wine vaults) and the formal Restaurant Patrick Guilbaud – Ireland’s first two-Michelin starred restaurant. For drinks, there’s the intimate cocktail bar, No. 23, whilst The Merrion also boasts the city’s most delectable Afternoon Tea which it serves in its graceful drawing room. After a day of sightseeing, you can make the most of the award-winning downstairs spa and 18 metre pool.
