Boutique Hotels Dublin

Elegant Dublin has a much more subtle boutique scene than you'll find in other major capitals, largely thanks to the low-rise architecture. The city blends historic buildings with beautifully converted warehouses, steelworks, and factories offering smart contemporary accommodation with a laid-back feel. It's a rather soft-spoken, refined category of hotel, and our hotel experts have hand-picked what they consider to be the best boutique hotels in Dublin. From chic self-catering-type properties to stylish design hotels - there's plenty here to warrant a weekend break in Dublin.
