"close to sights/shopping"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 5, 2012
We loved it - great location, staff and breakfast. Lovely, large second floor room.
"Comfort and a warm fireplace"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 5, 2012
We had been having a lot of rain and really just wanted to go home! But upon checking into The Hotel, we were so comforted by the staff, especially Tasha and her tour of the lovely amenities. She served us drinks and made us comfortable in front of the warm fireplace and we said "Ahhh". The room was large with a lovely view, the bed very comfortable and the dinner superb. The staff did everything they could to make our stay wonderful, thanks, we'll be back!
"Nice Place"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 5, 2012
The Hotel was clean and comfortable. Wi-Fi was free in the lobby. It was a short walk from where the airport bus dropped us off and shopping/restaurants. Most of the tourist spots are a bit farther, but still very walkable.
"Good Value"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 5, 2012
The Ardmore is a clean, modern hotel that has power showers and staff that are friendly. The food served is well prepared and affordable. For the money it can't be beat, but if you want nice pillows, soft towels& cozy bedding then you should spend the extra money to get them. Those of us who prefer value over the little "extras" would love this hotel. The 15 minute bus ride into downtown wasn't bad unless you JUST missed the bus and have to wait another twenty minutes to get on. It is a great location for a first night into Dublin or your last because it is only 15 minutes to the airport!
"Close enough to everything, far enough for quiet"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on May 3, 2012
Very pleasant. We stayed directly in temple bar 3 nights before and wanted one night of quiet before we left. Receptionist was extremely helpful and even mailed a postcard for me so I wouldn't have to walk. Would stay again.

"Perfect, stately hotel in a great location"
The Merrion was all that it was supposed to be. a gorgeous, understated entrance into a beautiful series of great rooms that were tasteful and welcoming. the only probably is the great rooms filled up quickly! the location is perfect with walking distance to St. Stephens, Grafton St. and the DART. tons of good pubs and restaurants also within walking […] distance. the service was very good and special kudos to the concierge Daniel who goes out of his way to make your time in Dublin special and is a great asset to the hotel. I would not want to stay anywhere else in Dublin Read more
"AMAZING!"
The Merrion was fabulous. I can't say enough about the service and quality of everything there. Highly recommend.

"Phenomenal hotel: Class without pretense/formality"
I doubt I have ever stayed at a hotel as luxurious and comfortable as the Merrion, particularly in contrast to the Shelbourne at which we had just spent two nights. We booked the Merrion on a splurge when our flight out of Dublin was cancelled and wished we had stayed there the entire time in Dublin. We got a great rate on a room and when we arrived […] were upgraded at least two levels free. The Cellar Pub was the best food and atmosphere we experienced in Dublin. Everyone was tripping over themselves to help and guide. My only complaint would be that there was a lot of noise on the street below us that woke us up several times, but again, we were upgraded several classes and it was a weekend. Classy without being uncomfortable and stuffy. Read more
"Great end to 2011!!"
This hotel always provides comfort and elegance without being over the top!
"Short stay at the Merrion"
From start to finish, the staff at the Merrion treated us like royalty. The hotel itself is goregous and comfortable and located in a beautiful part of the city. My one complaint was that the room was a little cold (heat took a little while to kick in) and that the first night we didnt have a blanket on top of the bed (we also fell asleep without asking […] - with their attentiveness, i am SURE they would have brought us one immediately). The money is worth it for this luxury hotel! Read more
"The Merrion, Dublin--posh but not snobby"
I've stayed here before with my late husband; this was the first time on my own. The staff is friendly and very accomodating, the hotel itself is beautiful and the location is convenient to most things in Dublin, a great walking city. The two bars are places a single woman can sit and be comfortable when ordering a drink. I mentioned on check-in that […] the trip was a present I gave myself since my 60th birthday was the next day. When I returned to my room that day, I found a plate with three elaborately decorated cupcakes and "happy birthday" spelled out in chocolate sauce, plus a card from the general manager. I also saw several families on this trip, so I would highly recommend this hotel to everyone. Read more
"The Merrion is the Best Hotel in Dublin"
Fantastic stay from curbside greeting to checkout and departure. Every encounter with hotel staff, every minor detail of our stay, every inch of the gorgeous property was perfect. We were upgraded to a luxury suite with a rate that was four times what we booked, and were treated like royalty every moment of our stay. We will be back and wouldn't even […] consider staying in another hotel in Dublin. This is the best hotel experience we've ever had, anywhere in the world. Read more
excellent hotel, excellent service, warm welcome .Good location. Elegant and low key. Will gladly go back.

"Merrion Dublin - Upscale hotel and ideal location"
Highly recommended. Great location near the most popular Dublin sights, friendly and attentive staff and the amenities one expects from a 5 star property. The restaurant was very good if rather expensive, which is typical of Ireland in general. If breakfast isn't included, there are cheaper alternatives within a block or so.
This guest did not leave a comment.
Would recommend this hotel to everyone. Right in the middle of Dublin and so convenient for all main attractions. Hotel staff were very friendly,efficient and attended to every request immediately.Our bedroom was large,comfortable,elegantly furnished and had everything you could ever need. I can't think of a bad thing to say about our stay or the hotel. […] Definately deserves its 5 stars. Will stay here again. Read more
"Great Hotel"
Good location close to St Stephens Green and all the major sites. Great support staff. 5 stars all around with the exception of the lobby and lounge areas in need of sprucing up. Comfortable large rooms with large bathrooms. Turn down service. Exquisite.
"Merrion Dublin"
The Merrion was as advertised. Fantastic large rooms, beautiful courtyard and friendly staff. It is in a great location to do site seeing in Dublin.
"Stay at Merrion"
We stayed for a week in Feb, 2011. The service was consistently the best we have ever enjoyed. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We arrived with our own coffee but no coffee maker. The hotel supplied an electric hot water kettle and a French press which we think they bought just for our use. The public areas are understated but immaculate. There […] is a lot of art on the walls throughout the hotel. The truffles at night were of very high quality, etc, etc. But, really, it was the staff (doorman, concierge, counter workers, housekeepiing) who made our stay so wonderful. Read more
"Irish Charmer"

"A Jewel in the Heart of Historic Dublin"
This hotel and its staff are wonderful! The location is ideal, the interiors elegant and aesthetic. A beautiful courtyard garden offers peaceful retreat from the city. The staff is friendly, attentive and actually impeccable. The location is within walking distance to most historic and shopping/restaurant sites and yet has a peaceful classic ambience. […] We could not have enjoyed our stay more and recommend it highly to anyone. We will only stay here on our return to Dublin. We also apppreciated the hotels.com pricing that made our garden wing room affordable and ideal for us. Read more

"Marvelous Merrion Hotel in Dublin"
All your needs will be met with a cheerful smile in this elegant Georgian house hotel. You will be pampered and catered to and will never want to leave.
"Lovely hotel, wonderful staff"
A perfect place to stay in Dublin if one wants to feel elegant and cared for without excessive pampering and pretension. Gorgeous public rooms, nicely appointed bedrooms and baths. Accommodating, utterly competent service at all levels.
"Elegant hotel with some small service issues"
We stayed one night at the end of a one week trip to Ireland. We were welcomed warmly and found the physical condition of the hotel to be top notch. We got a room upgrade. Our room was beautiful The food is excellent in the restaurant and bar though their in the basement at the far end of the hotel leaves a bit to be desired. Our only major issue […] is that we had to ask three times to get some non-allergenic pillows. Generally we had a delightful, though all too short stay. Read more
"Super Hotel in Super Location"
This hotel is expensive but worth every penny. Beautifully done, superbly run, with excellent restaurants and staff. A lovely garden, an underground car park, interior swimming pool and old world elegance. If we had one complaint it would be that they so don't pressure you to leave your table at the restaurants that it is actualkly a little difficult […] to get a check. This will always be our hotel for future Dublin trips!! Read more
"Old-world comfort, outstanding service"
Everyone at the Merrion goes out of their way to be helpful and friendly, moreso than anywhere else we've ever stayed. (Including a few other hotels in this price range) The only shortcoming was the view from our room, which was of the street--we had thought we were booked into a room with a view of the gardens (which are very nice). But this was not […] such a big issue for us. Whether you stay here or not, check out the Cellar Bar, with its several nooks and small rooms, great places for just a few people to gather. Read more

"Hometown stay"
My well travelled American wife and I stayed at The Merrion on a visit to Dublin which is my home town. She said it was one of the best hotels she has stayed at and combined the comfort you would expect from a 5 star hotel with a country house hotel ambiance and the friendlessness of a bed and breakfast. A visit by some of my family for afternoon tea […] was a delight although one afternoon tea serving of food is probably more than enough for two people. The Merrion surprised again by providing a take away bag for the left overs, which is very unusual for Dublin. We'll be back. Read more

"Merrion Hotel Sumptious at times"
Just back from a long weekend the Hotel and accomodation is warn welconming and very luxurious. It is also very popular with local business so if you want a seat during the day in the lounges with the fires you need to reserve a seat which is inconvenent if you come back in and want a quick cup of tea. . We were very disappointed with the quality of […] food in both the cellar bar and our afternoon tea which at £38 Euro a head we had high expectations - the scones were hard and chewy and the sandwiches were doorstops sorry guys but an afternoon tea should be delicate Read more

"Hotel Merrion Dublin. Ferieluksus"
Fantastisk hotel med super service og kort vei til alt. Shopping, puber osv er kun noen få minutters gange unna.
"高級ホテルですがアットホームなサービスです。"
ダブリンを代表する老舗高級ホテルだそうですが、従業員の接客態度はとてもソフトで笑顔を絶やさず、居心地がよいホテルでした。ティールームはハイティ―をしに外から来る客で予約がかなり入っていますので、宿泊する場合でも利用する時には予約した方が良いと思います。ワイアレスWifi環境も良好でした。ルームサービスの朝食も良かったですが、40ユーロというのは少し高いかなと感じました。
"Marrion hotel i Dublin verdt et besøk."
Beliggenheten til Marrion var sentral til sentum. Drosjer rett på utsiden av hotellet og lett tilgang til noen av byens høydepunkt. Parker og museer. Kan virkelig anbefale hotellet til andre . Hyggelig og oppmerksomme ansatte . Fine gamle omgivelser.
"Hotel Merrion à Dublin"
Idéalement situé au centre de la capitale, proche du square du meme nom et des rues piétonnes et commerciales. Le bus touristique passe devant . Hotel très confortable et calme. Restaurants à recommander. Piscine intérieure
"HOTEL MERRION : beaux quartiers de Dublin"

"Merrion Hotel i Dublin"
Charmigt hotell med supertrevlig personal. Men verkligen jättedyrt, frukosten var ej inkluderad i vårt hotellpaket och den kostade 27-35 euro/person och frukost.
