We just returned from a long (nearly three week) vacation in Paris, Western Ireland and Dublin. We stayed in one of the suites and found our accompdations to be very comfortable. I loved the sheets and bedding. I hadn't slept that well in several weeks. Our room was beautiful and overlooked the park. The hotel went above and beyond our... more

Awesome!

We stayed at the Shelbourne the first night of our honeymoon. There were three things which made the Shelbourne so great. First, it was free, as I used up some Marriott points I had collected. Second, we arrived at the hotel from our red-eye flight at 6:20 AM. By some stroke of luck, they had a room available and let... more

Just spent three wonderful nights at this stately and historic property in the heart of one of Europe's oldest capitals. Character abounds with no compromise to luxury thanks to the recent meticulous renovations. If it's Scandinavian Modern design with glass and steel you're after than look elsewhere, but most visitors to this area should appreciate what the Shelbourne has to... more

For such an expensive and hyped up hotel I should have had lots to say about it, but I don't! It was not a memorable experience. There was nothing too wrong with it, but it was just dissappointing considering how well respected it is. The hotel layout is not very nice considering it only recently got refurbished. The lobby is... more

We enjoyed our stay at the Shelbourne very much with a couple of serious issues. First, if you are driving into Dublin, beware the one-way streets. Getting to the valet parking spot in front of hotel is a nightmare for unsuspecting out-of-towners. There is an unusual one-way street configuration that requires an elaborate meander around the hotel. After several tries... more

We stayed two nights at the Shelbourne and were thrilled with everything. The location was perfect. It was close to everything, but quiet and peaceful (across from St. Stephen's Green). The staff were very attentive, friendly and accommodating. The rooms were clean, spacious and well equipped. The breakfast was one of the best we have ever had. The buffet really... more

It would appear that this hotel has suffered in todays climate of the 'credit crunch'. The doorman, in his top hat (perched ungainly to one side of his head) was literally moping the front entrance - this activity (& other activities) led to guests being required to carry in their own bags. The concierge, purported to be on 24hr service,... more

We stayed here for a girly weekend. We stayed in one of their standard rooms which was small but decorated beautifully. The bed was one of the most comfortable I have ever slept in - it was devine. The best thing about this hotel is the location. It just can't be beat. The down side was that there is no... more

We stayed in June 08 - the overall stay was good. The room was of a standard, almost expected from a hotel of this standard. The staff on reception were excellent. The breakfast was incredible! However, the residents bar was most disappointing. This was the second time we had stayed at this expensive hotel, and had expected some kind of... more

We stayed at The Shelbourne in November 2008. The hotel is very beautiful, the entrance was luxurious but at the same time felt very happening, thanks to The Saddle Room at the front part of the hotel, which seems to be the hotspot for drinks and rendez-vous in Dublin. The room was also lovely, it was not excessively spacious but... more
