The Merrion will take very good care of you. But if you want a Michelin starred dinner in Dublin don't go to Patrick Guilbaud. Go to Chapter One.

The Shelbourne Hotel, where Julia Roberts’ and Liam Neeson’s characters danced in the movie “Michael Collins,” is another one of Dublin’s best hotels. In 1922 the Constitution of the Irish Free State was drafted in room 112 of the Shelbourne Hotel.

Thanks for these wonderful recommendations. I will research both the Merrion and Shelbourne. And of course Chapter One for dining.
