Michelin Guide "Elegant guest areas... Spacious bedrooms; plenty of extras."
Concierge "Sure, the odd clue that you're in Ireland is discernible—the Celtic seaweed treatments in the excellent spa, for instance—but really, this could be anywhere. If that bothers you, stay away."
Jetsetter "An upscale city bolthole with impeccable service and a hefty dose of Irish charm." Full review
Travel + Leisure "It may be something of an eyesore from the outside... but the characteristically luxurious Four Seasons property has some of the largest and best-appointed guest rooms in town." Full review
Star Service "The sunny conservatory lounge is flawlessly appended to the guests' bar and library to create an elegant, intimate setting befitting the well-heeled clientele. " Full review
