"Built across four restored Georgian townhouses, this property displays one of Ireland’s largest private art collections—said to rival the nearby National Gallery—across its 142 rooms and public spaces. Guests can browse a catalog in-room or take a self-guided audio tour to see works by Jack Yeats, William Scott and Louis le Brocquy; every two years a contemporary artist is showcased on the Merrion Plinth, and afternoon tea features desserts inspired by the collection." - Jennifer Flowers, Kathryn Romeyn
