HOTEL DESCRIPTION: The Merrion stands directly opposite Government Buildings in the heart of Dublin city centre. On the doorstep is Upper Merrion Street, where Government Buildings, The National Gallery and The National Museum of Ireland are located. A short walk leads to the adjacent "golden mile" of lively pubs, shops and restaurants dotted around St. Stephen's Green. Grafton Street is a leisurely stroll away for all the latest designer shops.

The Merrion's location is also surrounded by commerce and industry - business people coming to and from work as the city centre bustles with action. Weekends in contrast are peaceful. Horse-drawn carriages clip-clop past the Georgian railings of nearby Merrion Square, which are hung with the work of local exhibiting artists.

HOTEL ACCOMMODATION: The Restoration of this luxurious Dublin hotel demanded the highest standards and the designers' brief was both simple and clear "To create a space with sensitivity to the 18th century heritage of the building, with light and airy bedrooms." As a result, the 123 guest rooms and 19 suites are the epitome of elegance and also supremely inviting and comfortable. The interior is designed using Irish fabrics and antiques to reflect the architecture and original interiors of the 18th Century Townhouses.
