My infrequent trips to Dublin are made even more enjoyable by staying at The Merrion. A classy classic hotel in the heart of the city, opposite Leinster House, close to St Stephen's Green, Grafton Street etc. Deceptively large, wooden floors, comfortable lounge areas with comfy chairs and sofas where one can enjoy some quiet time, afternoon tea or something a little stronger from the (24 hour) bar. The open fire gives that added bit of warm and comfort - especially when enjoying a cocktail - test the barman's knowledge - its extensive! Good size bedrooms with all the expected features, clean and comfortable. Breakfast in the basement restaurant has the full range available with polite attentive staff...although I was surprised, after being asked if I would like brown toast, to be served white! Small matter. Concierge and doormen are very helpful and will always find a taxi for you. Final vote of thanks to the IT gentleman who came to my room and connected me to the wifi when my laptop was doing its best to tell me it didn't exist - well done that man!! To quote Mr. Schwarzenegger - I'll be back.More
