Always stay here when in Dublin, Great rooms and a personal friendly service.

Merrion hotel is a nice older european-Style Hotel. The rooms were clean and quaint and we had plenty of room. It was a bit uncomfortable to make the walk through the tea room ( sometimes quite crowded) and outside through a cold walkway to our room in the other building. It is a very quiet place. overall it was a good experience but we might trysomething a bit more modern next trip.

The Merrion Hall hotel is a very nice hotel situated in Ballsbridge. Its very quiet with a very distinctive character. The drawing rooms in particular are very charming and its is a very pleasant surprise to be served tea/coffee and biscuits on arrival in these pleasant surroundings (even more so in Winter, when there are open fires).

When i booked the Merrion Hall i was led to believe we would get drinks on arrival and a modern room. When we arrived there was building work outside, no drinks on arrival and we were put into a tiny room with 2 single beds squeezed in. There was no bedside table or light and no space for getting in and out of the other single bed (you had to climb over one bed to get to the other). There were bars on the windows and a noise from the air conditioning. This is not a hotel i would be happy staying in again. I have given it 2 stars because the rooms were clean and the breakfast quite nice, if a little small. Spend your euros somewhere else!
