The Best Hotels in Dublin

Dublin has a plethora of hotels and guesthouses available, and it can be tricky to figure out which one is right for you. If you’re looking for something special for that honeymoon or anniversary, or simply want to treat yourself, here are the best hotels in Dublin:

Crowne Plaza Dublin Airport Hotel

Located just minutes from the airport, Crowne Plaza Dublin Airport is surrounded by 85 acres of woodlands. While there are plenty of Dublin Airport hotels to choose from, this one is by far the winner, due to its value for money, and the customer service shown by the staff.

If you’re looking for airport parking, take a look into Airparks, so you won’t need to worry about finding transportation to and from the airport. Airparks Airport Parking – Proud to park your car.

The Merrion Hotel

The Merrion is a classy elderly lady, offering elegance without stuffiness, and a Georgian grace with Irelands largest collection of private art. Don’t forget to stop by the Tethra Spa for a truly relaxing experience-the hardest part will be limiting yourself to one or two treatments.

This hotel gives new meaning to the word “opulent”, and the spacious rooms will have you feeling at home faster than the concierge can unpack your bags.

Four Seasons

Four Seasons has long been known for their impressive bathrooms (with L’Occitane toiletries), their Irish whiskies, and the friendly and unobtrusive staff.

While the hotel was built 15 years ago, it’s been refurbished often enough to remain both relevant and timeless, and the location ensures that it’s central without being surrounded by pubs.

Both morning coffee and afternoon tea are available in the drawing room, and you’ll be sure to meet people in the Ice Bar, with some of the most impressive cocktails in Dublin on the menu.

The Shelbourne Hotel

This is the signature five-star hotel in Dublin, and you certainly won’t miss the red-brick building, which has been standing since 1824.

The location couldn’t be better, and it’s an easy five minute walk to the city centre. The hotel was closed for eighteen months a few years ago, and given a makeover that has since brought in plenty of crowds.

Make sure you get a south-facing room, so you’ll have views of the mountains, compared with the north-facing rooms which don’t have a view at all.

The Perfect 12-Day Northern USA Road Trip Itinerary for Montana, Wyoming, and the Dakotas

I've said it before but I'll say it again: there's no better way to see the United States than by taking to the road. Road tripping is the ultimate way to explore America, and there's no shortage of options whether you want to travel for 10 days or 10 months. Certain US road trip routes are more popular than others, though; we've all heard of Route 66 and California's Highway 1. You've maybe looked into driving through the American Southwest, or perhaps through New England in the fall. But what about the states that tend to be overlooked? While Utah and California and even Florida have great road trip potential, the truth is that there's something to see in EVERY state in this union. Grand Tetons Which is why my sister and I decided to tackle a slightly less-popular road trip route last summer: we decided we wanted to focus on the northern states that never seem to get enough love. States like Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota, and So...

Things to do in Luxembourg City: A Delightful Weekend Guide

This roundup of things to do in Luxembourg City was created in collaboration with Visit Luxmbourg, who graciously hosted me on this trip. Imagine if you will, a miniscule wonderland packed with castles, greenery and slate grey rooftops over hues of pastel yellow and pink. A place where everybody speaks four languages, where trams are rainbow, and where electric buses are capable of  driving themselves. It appears this wonderland does exist, my friends… and it’s called Luxembourg. *brief pause for gasps and shock* Landlocked between France, Germany and Belgium, Luxembourg is a micro-country known mostly as a metropolitan hub for civil servants, bankers and pleeeenty of cross-border commuters. As such, it’s no surprise that Luxembourg hasn’t quite acquired the tourist magnetism of its nearby neighbours. But you know me, never one to judge until I’ve seen it for myself! And truthfully, when I was invited to explore Luxembourg City for 24 hours with Vis...
