A historic, art-filled gem in Dublin
VERIFIED LUXURY
Here are five things to know about us:
1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

What do you get when you take four historic Georgian houses and mesh them together? In the case of The Merrion in
Dublin, you get a stunning 18th-century property that hits all the right buttons when it comes to classic style, fine service and an easy elegance, right in city center.
Because the property used to be a series of homes, the interior speaks to this by maintaining a comfortable, welcoming feeling. Of course, numerous plush couches, roaring fireplaces and not-too-big common spaces help with this vibe as well.
The walls are hung with art, the tables laden with fresh-cut flowers, and you can get superb food and drink in all sorts of unexpected places throughout the property. Given the luxury hotel manages to strike such a balance of comforting, high-end service and dedication to Ireland, it's easy to fall in love with Dublin within the Merrion's walls.
