Dublin's Most Historic Five-Star Palace
27 St. Stephen's Green • Established 1824
Established in 1824 and presiding majestically over St. Stephen's Green, The Shelbourne is Dublin's most celebrated and iconic five-star hotel. Known affectionately as Ireland's national hotel, this grand Victorian and Georgian dame has been the backdrop to over two centuries of Irish history, culture, and high society.
It was here in Room 112 that the Constitution of the Irish Free State was drafted in 1922 under the leadership of Michael Collins. Today, that storied legacy lives on across 265 lavishly restored rooms and 19 heritage suites adorned with custom Irish damask fabrics, antique chandeliers, and marble fireplaces.
Dining at The Shelbourne is an integral part of Dublin life. Savor prime dry-aged Irish beef and oysters at The Saddle Room, experience Dublin's premier Afternoon Tea in The Lord Mayor's Lounge, mingle over cocktails at No. 27 The Shelbourne Bar, or sip rare pot-still whiskeys in the historic circular Horseshoe Bar. Guests also enjoy sublime relaxation at The Spa at The Shelbourne, complete with an 18-meter indoor thermal swimming pool.
