Michelin Guide "Elegant hotel... spacious bedrooms."
Frommer's "Housed in four restored Georgian houses, the Merrion is a deeply feminine, traditionally elegant hotel." Full review
Concierge "In a city of spotty service, the staff here does a good impression of having had decades of practice, and the look of the place is weathering beautifully."
Fodor's "Stately and spiffy, and splendidly situated... this luxurious hotel actually comprises four exactingly restored Georgian town houses." Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"This resplendent five-star hotel, in a terrace of beautifully restored Georgian townhouses, opened in 1988 but looks like it's been around a lot longer." Full review

"The Merrion is Dublin's most exclusive luxury hotel, and has a convenient location across from the Government buildings in four 18th-century townhouses." Full review
Time Out "Housed inside four restored, listed Georgian houses, the Merrion doesn't shy away from a little frill here, a delicate striped couch there." Full review
Star Service "Thanks to management's adept style and the meticulous staff, this hotel comes off as a cozier version of the Four Seasons." Full review
The Telegraph9.0

Travel + Leisure "Occupying a cluster of four stately Georgian houses, The Merrion embodies the classical glamour of the 18th century, with a subtly modern twist." Full review
