Recently my family and i had lunch in the Cellar Restaurant in the Merrion Hotel. The minute we got to the Hotel we were treated extremely well, we were served by Andrew, he was very welcoming and made us feel at home which is something i always feel i don't get in other Hotels. I was very impressed with his... More

The perfect way to end our wonderful stay in Ireland! The Merrion has got to be one of the best hotels in the world. We can only reaffirm what everyone else has written and can't wait to return.

Afternoon tea at the Merrion Hotel is a great way to experience the history, art, service and ambience of the hotel. Service is attentive and gracious. It's not cheap (36 euros per person) but it's a well-rounded experience and will be the height of any afternoon tea experience I know I'll ever have. I highly recommend it for a peek... More

Just returned from a long weekend at The Merrion. First I have to say that the rooms were clean, the food was good and most of the staff were pleasant. Unfortunately I now have to say that the views from the rooms were terrible: we had a room in the Garden Suite which overlooked a brick wall and my Daughter... More

I can only agree with previous reviews. This was our second weekend break here and we'll be back for more! The valet parking, the welcome, the staff - all superb. The attention to detail is fantastic. I went to the spa on the first evening (book well in advance) and had a wonderful relaxing experience. Breakfast next morning was superb... More

I stayed at the hotel for a birthday treat with my partner. From start to finish every detail was just perfect. The building is a composed of a number of Georgian townhouse with the most stunning interior which makes for a very opulent feeling to the hotel, however this is no celtic tiger cub with naff brass and marble adoration...

Stayed on an overnight in Dublin. Fantastic staff, spacious room, great dinner and breakfast. Wish we could visit more often. The rooom had everything you could possibly want. The inner courtyard with its water feature is so calming, you wouldn't think you were in the middle of a city and the paintings hanging all aroud the public areas are not... More

From business to weddings, the Merrion is incredible. The hotel is beautiful and the artwork something else. The food is no slouch either! However, it is the STAFF that makes this hotel what it is. The service is highly professional yet genuinely friendly and welcoming with an easygoing twist. You feel so welcome here. Other top hotels take note!! No... More
