This is old style luxuary and for the more trendy you can do better. The location on the green and 5 min walk to shopping is great. At night the hotel has a nice buzz to it. However if I was younger less 35 I'd think these older folk still know how to have fun. The reception is not visible... More

The Shelbourne is like an elegant old film star, classy and sophisticated, yet the staff are all polite and friendly- not snobbish. Located right across the street from St. Stephen's Green and just two blocks from Grafton Street, it has an excellent location. It's a 2-5 minute walk to all sorts of places to eat and shop. The HOHO bus... More

We stayed here for four night in late April. It is a beautiful hotel with a renaissance feel to it. We arrived early in the morning and our roon wasn't ready yet as they were full. We had some breakfast and they called us on our cell when it was ready. We had a king bed room with a roll... More

We booked a 3 night stay here and I have to say this was one of the best hotels I've stayed in. We were welcomed by the bellboy who took our cases, showed us around the foyer, showed us where the restaurants were, describing each in detail. He then took us to check in and gave us home made lemonade... More

Very nice historic building (I believe the nation's constitutions were drafted here) that is well situated just across from St Stephen's park. Great big showerhead (pressure merely sufficient). Locally renowned Irish breakfast (not cheap: EUR 30). Wonderful pillows; room temperature controls worked well. Plenty of staff in the lobby. My room, sadly, was above a green trash compacting device that... More

We recently stayed at the Shelbourne Hotel for 4 nights in May. I've stayed in hotels all over the world and this hotel is very nice. While this was my first trip to Dublin, I found it to be a wonderful city and the Shelbourne seems to be in a great location. The hotel has been restored recently and was... More

Great Hotel, BUT BE PREPARED TO SPEND 20 EUROS a day for wifi. Here we have a quality hotel (Mel Gibson was there when we stayed at the hotel), but they charge for wifi. That's just BS. Even the Sleep Inn gives it to you free. If you want to use a free wifi you have to go to the... More

This hotel has large rooms, great location, very helpful concierge and doormen. Many celebrities have stayed here. Very, very nice. Totally worth it!

Really cannot fault our stay at The Shelbourne. Check-in was quick & flawless. Our room was a nice size with a comfortable King sized bed. Bathroom was modern and very clean. It's situated directly across from the charming St. Stephen's Green park and just a block or two away from Grafton Street. It's also steps away from the National Museum... More
