We had a suite on the 6th floor and I have to agree with the previous post we couldn't get the a/c cool enough and it was very loud which made it difficult to sleep in the end we had to open a window ( So even more noise !) our bathroom was big but the shower was very poor... more

Six of us stayed at the The Shelbourne for 3 nights over the early May bank holiday weekend. We managed to get a very good rate for the hotel however the rooms were very small and could only just turn 360 degrees in the bathroom. The bed was fantastically comfortable which just about compensated for the poor shower and noisy... more

The Shelbourne is a fine hotel and it should be for the average price per night. My wife and I were fortunate to go on a company sponsored event. The decor, design, historical preservation, etc. are impressive. The rooms were large, the bedding was very comfortable and the room service (cleaning etc) was efficient and non intrusive. The bars -... more

I was not too sure what to expect following a few bad reviews here. I am pleased to be able to report an "excellent" rating. The staff could not do enough for us, the check-in was a real delight. I was even offered a delicious glass of home made lemonade. The cherry on the cake was when we were upgraded... more

We stayed at The Shelbourne in November 2007 and loved it. The hotel's historic feel and opulent lobby interiors made us feel very special. The staff were very courteous and helpful. We had some trouble finding our way around the hotel because some of the hotel's construction is more recent, but this was really minor. The room we had was... more

Dublin is NOT cheap for hotels... yet the Shelburne experience was worth the $500 per night for the end of our Ireland Trip. Right on St. Stephens Square, it was close to all of the main sights and locations. The rooms were opulent, and the bed the most comfortable I have ever stayed in. Breakfasts at $50 per person are... more

Just came back from four days at the Shelbourne. I found the hotel to be lovely and the staff extremely friendly and helpful. My room was very large, overlooking the green. The location was fabulous. My only criticism would be that I have to agree with everyone who said that the two bars were overcrowded. My husband and I had... more

Really unimpressed. For a 5 star hotel I thought it was about a 3, in terms of staff and the rooms. First we arrived at about 3pm and told the room wasn’t ready. They suggested we go away for lunch and they would call us shortly, an hour later with no call we popped back in – no room, another... more

Visited Dublin in early April, after having spent several days traveling around the western and southern parts of the country, enjoying the sites and the incredible sunny weather every day (would you believe?) The nice weather continued in Dublin for the next four days we were there. As for the Shelbourne, it's quite luxurious now after the total renovation it... more
