Dylan Hotel

Ultra-modern and uber-cool, the Dylan is Dublin’s trendiest boutique hotel, and a recent revamp has put it right back at the top of its game.

Herringbone floors, white-wood panelling and polished walnut furniture give the place an old-school but upscale feel, while rooms ooze low-key style.

On a sunny day, lunch on Eddison restaurant’s verandah is a must-do, (although don’t miss the ‘moss wall’ living art inside), while locals mingle with guests over cocktails in the intimate Dylan bar.

The icing on the cake is the residents-only Ruby Room, offering seriously-intoxicating cocktails each evening.
