Overview
Situated in leafy Ballsbridge on the upscale fringes of Dublin, the Dylan Hotel is a funky city pad in a traditional red-brick Victorian shell. As Condé Nast Traveler notes, "this hotel looks as respectable as its surroundings in Dublin's affluent inner suburbs", but inside "things take a sudden turn for the flamboyant". The result is a stylish hotel that has a popular following with visiting celebrities and young couples.
The Tavern restaurant offers an intimate dining experience, with fresh menus created around seasonal and locally sourced products, and proposes an extensive wine list to accompany them. Popular with the city’s media crowd, the Dylan Bar is known for its signature cocktail creations, including the Old Fashion Smoky, with Bulleit Rye, Johnny Walker Black Label, vanilla honey and bitters. There’s also a compact fitness centre, which is open 7am-10pm.
The décor in the individually designed rooms is modern and high-end rooms even have TVs in the bathrooms. Free Wi-Fi access and iPods loaded with historical city walking tours are thoughtful standard extras, and hair straighteners and curling irons are available on request. The hotel also caters to visiting pets, providing pet beds, food, water and treats (extra charges apply).
The hotel’s neighbourhood is very residential, but it is still within walking distance of the city’s sights. A 15-minute stroll takes you to St Stephen's Green and the shops on pedestrianized Grafton Street. Take in some charming culture at the Little Museum of Dublin or head a little further into town to the buzzy Temple Bar.
