24 Best Hotels in Dublin

"Formerly the Four Seasons, the InterContinental Dublin is tucked away in the leafy and well-to-do district of Ballsbridge. The luxurious notes hit you the moment you step through the door, when you’re met with crystal chandeliers and swaths of marble. The Lobby Lounge, with navy armchairs and gold couches, is a popular spot to sit with a glass of wine or cup of tea and people-watch; it also affords a great view of the inner courtyard garden through its Victorian-style conservatory windows. Even the entry-level rooms are ample and luxurious, with silky-soft beds and bathtubs so deep that even the tallest among us can take a soak. While you’ll certainly be taken care of, you won't be bothered—no one's going to ask you if you’re okay every five minutes. Which is refreshing." - Nicola Brady
