Really cannot fault our stay at The Shelbourne. Check-in was quick & flawless. Our room was a nice size with a comfortable King sized bed. Bathroom was modern and very clean. It's situated directly across from the charming St. Stephen's Green park and just a block or two away from Grafton Street. It's also steps away from the National Museum... More

This was a beautiful hotel. We spent hours in the lobby... waiting for our room because we had just flown over from the US and were more than exhausted. We tried to walk around in the park across the street, but alas were to tired and nearly fell asleep on our feet. Lesson learned, make sure that have a room... More

I was very pleased with the hotel. The staff was very attentive and the location across from St Stephens park and near Trinity can't be beat. The rooms have one flaw and that is the failure to provide a hairdryer outlet in the bathroom. Fix that and it will truly be a five star!

I love this hotel. It's has the perfect combination of old world charm and new world amenities both paired with an ideal location. You are walking distance from most of Dublin's attractions and those that are just out of reach walking wise are a 10 minute taxi ride away. The staff here has never failed to impress from the top-hatted... More

We stayed for 3 nights at the end of April 2012......what a magnificent hotel: beautiful chandeliers and just pure elegance. Our room was lovely and the bed simply divine!!! Just one gripe though: we got back to the room on the Friday at about 2-2:30pm to discover that our room had not been cleaned as yet. But this was sorted... More
