Michelin Guide "A smart hotel set over 6 period buildings, with comfy lounges, impressive conference rooms and good facilities."

Concierge "Despite the grand surroundings, however, service is friendly and down-to-earth."
Jetsetter "Historic 19th-century bank-turned-hotel in the heart of Dublin with a restaurant and bar." Full review
