The Bar/Lounge at The Clarence

"Stylish and well-run, with art deco reception, comfy lounge and famous domed bar"

"The basement Liquor Rooms nightclub, which has a nice retro speakeasy vibe, is one of the best places in Temple Bar for late night cocktails"

"In the meantime, a few draws remain: the Tea Room restaurant, the cozy Octagon Bar, and the Study, a residents-only librarylike lounge, are cool spaces; children are especially cared for; and there's a miniature spa and fitness room, too"

"City-centre, riverside location, backing onto Temple Bar"

"Bono and the Edge's handsome boutique hotel was once the hottest bed in town, but now it's just another elegant Dublin four-star designed to reflect the aesthetic of a 1930s gentlemen's club, complete with Shaker oak beds draped in Irish linen, an excellent bar and a fine restaurant"

"The Liquor Rooms is a "prohibition" style cocktail bar with a bistro menu"

"Cleaver East, overseen by executive chef Oliver Dunne, offers a six-course tasting menu, and the snug basement bar is super-atmospheric and occasionally graced by the odd celeb"

"The lower level houses The Liquor Rooms, a prohibition era-inspired bar and lounge lorded over by an international roster of DJs and lively swing bands"

"Although the feel is of a private manor, the hotel is well equipped for business visitors, with The Study (a 24-hour lounge), free Wi-Fi and a selection of meeting spaces, including The Clarence Suite, with views over the River Liffey"
