Reservar se You want to stay in Dublin's most iconic, historic 'Grand Dame' hotel where the Irish Constitution was drafted, complete with top-hatted doormen and a see-and-be-seen social scene.
Unbeatable location overlooking St. Stephen's Green
Historic grandeur mixed with modern luxury and impeccable service
Exceptional dining and legendary afternoon tea at The Lord Mayor's Lounge
Resumo Rápido: It's a legendary piece of Irish history, but the entry-level rooms are tiny and the lively ground-floor bars mean it's not always a quiet retreat.
Revisado por @atraveladvisor: My stay at The Shelbourne was unforgettable. Waking up in the Princess Grace Suite felt like stepping back in time, and sipping cocktails in the guest-only 1824 Bar was the perfect way to end the night. If you love historic luxury, this Dublin spot is an absolute must.
