The Shelbourne Hotel

A national treasure built in 1824, The Shelbourne Hotel has been magnificently restored while keeping its historic charm. The Shelbourne is a luxury 5 star hotel in Dublin city centre overlooking St. Stephen’s Green, Europe’s grandest garden square.

In 1996, nearly $2.5 million went into refurbishing the Shelbourne’s guest rooms and meeting space. It still holds the original charm that made it the toast of the literati. Joyce couldn’t resist mentioning it in his classic, ‘Ulysses’, Thackeray immortalised it, while Princess Grace, Irving and countless others blessed it with their presence.

Ideally situated close to Dublin’s cultural and historic buildings, The Shelbourne offers a great location, from where you can visit the majestic St. Patrick’s Cathedral and Trinity College. Explore shops on Grafton Street or visit the Guinness Storehouse. Enjoy a cocktail or Ireland’s own Guinness at their renowned Horseshoe Bar. Celebrate at the Oyster Bar or a prime-cut steak at The Saddle Room Restaurant. When planning a business affair, you’ll find perfection at The Shelbourne Hotel – with 13 banqueting and meeting suites and on-site catering.

The classic style of decor and high standards of comfort are often more reminiscent of a stately home than a hotel. But, with the attentive service, you will be able to enjoy the luxury of these elegant surroundings to the full.
