Dublin is one of our favorite cities to visit. The food, nightlife and atmosphere are just some of the many reasons we love it so much. If you’ve ever strolled around Dublin’s city center, then you’ll know what we mean. Did someone say Temple Bar? When we’re planning a trip to Dublin, we like to choose our hotel’s location based on walking distance from the main attractions. And maybe a little luxury too. For that, there’s no better and more famous place to stay than Dublin’s original rock ‘n’ roll hotel: The Clarence Hotel, Ireland.
About The Hotel
The Clarence Hotel in Ireland is a 4-star hotel located in the Temple Bar area of Dublin. The building itself dates back to 1852, and its impressive architecture caught the eye of U2 in the 1990s. After a full refurbishment, The Clarence Hotel is now the most iconic boutique hotel in the city.
The Amenities
The Clarence Hotel is home to the famous Octagon Bar. It’s where Bono fell in love with the hotel, and it’s not hard to see why. It’s a beautiful octagon-shaped dome room, with intimate and plush surroundings. It offers a full dining menu, drinks and afternoon tea, so there’s something for everyone. The Study and Cleaver East restaurants are also located in the hotel. A gym is available for guests and you can access the rooftop from the “Beautiful Day” music video too.
The hotel offers all types of rooms, from a double room all the way up to a penthouse suite. All of their rooms include free Wi-Fi, coffee-making stations, and toiletries. They’re designed in a classic yet modern style, with furniture custom designed by Irish artisans. We know exactly which room we’d want to stay in.
What’s Special About The Clarence Hotel
Celebrity-owned properties are exciting when they’re owned by just one celebrity. The Clarence Hotel in Ireland is owned by both Bono and The Edge, making it twice as exciting. Two musicians, venture capitalists, philanthropists and generally all-around talented Irish businessmen. And to top it all off, the hotel has an unrivaled river view.
What To Do Around The Hotel
The Clarence Hotel is located in the quaint Irish Wellington Quay with views over the River Liffey. It’s surrounded by restaurants and bars, so you’ll have no problems finding live music nearby. It’s also only a few minutes walk from popular tourist attractions like Dublin Castle and St Patrick’s Cathedral. With Temple Bar on your doorstep, the party is both inside the hotel and all around it.
