From the T+L 500

Fashionable hotel occupying 4 Georgian townhouses opposite the National Gallery.

Stats:
143 rooms; 2 restaurants; 2 bars.
Competitive Edge:
Lovely Neoclassical interiors, and chef Patrick Guilbaud’s Michelin 2-starred restaurant—one of Ireland’s best.
Rooms to Book:
Those in the modern Garden Wing have the same dimensions as those in the Georgian house, but cost $100 less.
Don't Miss:
A black velvet (champagne with a Guinness head) beside the drawing room’s crackling fire.
