The Shelbourne, a Dublin landmark since 1824, has joined Marriott’s Autograph Collection, offering guests a blend of historic charm and contemporary luxury just steps from Trinity College and the National Gallery.
Recently renovated, the hotel’s interiors honor its long history and the many notable figures who have stayed there, while introducing modern comforts and amenities. Dining options on-site now include The Horseshoe Bar, long favored by politicians and journalists; The Lord Mayor’s Lounge, often described as one of Ireland’s most iconic drawing rooms; The Saddle Room Restaurant, which serves a classic Irish menu with traditional service; and the new 1824 Bar, focused on Irish whiskey.
To celebrate its addition to the Autograph Collection, The Shelbourne has launched a signature cocktail along with a range of spirit-forward experiences. Guests can enjoy an after-dinner whiskey trolley at The Saddle Room Restaurant and benefit from whiskey sommeliers available at The Horseshoe Bar, enhancing tastings and pairing recommendations.
“The Shelbourne has played a pivotal role in Irish society for nearly two centuries. Autograph Collection Hotels’ independent spirit is the perfect fit for the hotel’s next chapter, honoring the unique personality of this timeless Dublin landmark and its countless iconic stories,” said JP Kavanagh, general manager of The Shelbourne.
Room rates begin at $500 per night, reflecting the hotel’s premium location, historic significance and upgraded offerings for discerning travelers.
