The Merrion is Dublin's finest hotel, located in the heart of the very walkable downtown area of Dublin and close to Trinity College (the Book of Kells), the National Gallery of Ireland, as well as tempting shopping opportunities. The Main House is comprised of a row of gracious Georgian townhouses that have been converted into guestrooms and suites, and there is a modern Garden Wing built around a spacious garden courtyard behind the Main House. I really recommend rooms in the Main House for their traditional interiors and sense of history.
Although I had seen the Merrion's art collection in its public spaces during prior visits, I had no idea of the significance of the collection. The hotel has done something quite special, creating an audio guide to help guests more fully appreciate the works of art that grace the walls. Watch the video (above) to get a sense both of the hotel and its collection of art.
For even great value, book through your Virtuoso travel consultant to enjoy complimentary Full Breakfast for two daily and upgrade if available upon arrival. Guests booking a room in the Main House will additionally enjoy a complimentary lunch or dinner for two while Garden Wing guests receive cocktails and appetizers for two in the Cellar Bar.
