The hotel’s lounges, terraces, and saloons are works of art in themselves, classically refined sequences of marble, crystal, brass, and polished wood.
In a lively part of town
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Grafton Street boutiques and Trinity College sit a short stroll away, directly opposite the landscaped pathways of St Stephen's Green.
The rooms
Interiors feature brocade fabrics and marble bathrooms, with select Heritage Suites framing park views beside working fireplaces.
The water
Bring a swimsuit.
The spa, pool and gym
An indoor swimming pool and thermal suite join spa rituals and a relaxation room facing the green.
The Horseshoe Bar
Resident sommeliers lead weekly whiskey tastings beneath sporting murals around the curved wooden bar counter.
The Horseshoe Bar’s original 1957 Sam Stephenson design, complete with shining brass fixtures, is an intimate Old World nook, created solely for strong drinks and long conversations.
At the table
The Lord Mayor's Lounge serves traditional afternoon tea, and The Saddle Room carves Irish beef tableside.
How it began
Irish leaders gathered in Room 112 in 1922 to draft the nation's constitution, an original copy preserved within the suite today.
