The epitome of understated elegance, the Merrion combines a bustling city centre location with all the relaxation of a striking country get-away. Many of the five-star rooms overlook period landscape gardens, bringing luxury and nature together. Guests can enjoy an artisan afternoon tea service, or treat themselves to the incredible food in the two-star Michelin restaurant, Patrick Guilbaud. The No. 23 cocktail bar is always a draw, as is the Tethra Spa, which boasts an 18-metre pool, steam room, gym and treatment rooms. Though Dublin’s Grafton Street is just around the corner, you may never want to leave your suite.
