This is one of Dublin's most fashionable five-star hotels, with an unbeatable location in a pedestrianised area just steps from the shopping at Grafton Street, and surrounded by some of the city's best cafés, bars, restaurants and salons. Even though the hotel is in a buzzing city centre area, when you step through the hotel doors, the atmosphere inside the hotel is cosy, quiet and luxurious, with a vast lobby/lounge area perfect for afternoon tea, a choice of two restaurants and a bar. The hotel is perfect for someone who wants the ultimate in luxury and five-star service but also to be near the city's best shopping and nightlife.
Step out of the hotel onto Grafton Street; you're so close you can pop back mid-shopping to offload your bags.
As well as the shops, you're within walking distance of city sights including Dublin Castle, Irish Whiskey Museum and St Stephen's Green.
By plane: direct flights to Dublin from Manchester and Birmingham (1 hour), and London (1 hour 15 minutes). It's a 35-minute drive to the hotel. Parking costs €25 per day. skyscanner.net
People who like luxury, five-star service and somewhere stylish in the city centre with a relaxed vibe and excellent food will enjoy it here. The Gallery lounge area has comfortable sofas and windows looking out towards Grafton Street.
We loved the little touches like the seat in the elevator, push-button curtain closing, and glass (not plastic) bottles of water in the room.
