Unapologetically old fashioned in terms of its décor, the Berkeley Court attracts a mature clientele who also appreciate that it’s a couple of miles away from the hustle and bustle of the city centre. The rooms too are a throwback to a bygone age, with robes and slippers neatly laid-out on the dresser. The adherence to tradition ends with their business centre, which has some of the most advanced video conferencing facilities in the country.

A much-loved Dublin landmark, Buswells has been privy to almost as much political intrigue as the Irish parliament building, Dail Eireann, across the road. A strict adherence to tradition means that the décor is much the same as it was in 1921 when Eamon de Valera and Michael Collins were among the fi rst to prop up its oak-panelled bar. Mindful of the discretion some of its regulars require, the hotel has recently added private dining options to its wide range of facilities.

Built specifi cally with the adjoining Irish Financial Services Centre in mind, The Clarion has become the hotel of choice for guests who require round the clock access to the latest business technology. Add in huge air-conditioned rooms, an 18-metre indoor swimming pool and a restaurant offering world cuisine, and it’s no wonder that this modern European-style establishment is normally booked out weeks in advance.

You can’t get any more central than The Westin, a Starwood Group hotel which sits between Trinity College and the Liffey. Only open two years, it’s had no diffi culty luring guests away from its more seasoned rivals. The rooms feature warm colours, mahogany furnishings, and golden mirrors that are in keeping with the general 19th century feel of the hotel. The Mint Bar and chandeliered Banking Hall also impress with their unique Dublin charm and high levels of service.
