The Leinster – Dublin’s Luxury Lifestyle Hotel

A seriously good cocktail bar, dreamy interiors, Irish charm by the bucket load, and a world-class, Michelin-starred chef are what you’ll find at Dublin’s latest hotel opening. The Handbook’s Fashion & Lifestyle Editor, Astrid Carter, checked into The Leinster for 48 hours. Here’s what she thought…

Do not miss out

We stayed here the night before our honeymoon and we were delighted with our decision to do so! Highlight of the night was our stunning dinner and drinks in Jean Georges - would definitely recommend booking this well in advance to secure a spot! Particular favourites were the tuna tartare and wild turbot. Can blow the budget if you want to or more reasonable options in keeping with usual Dublin prices. All in all, one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in Dublin in a long time!

Delicious and educational on the palette

Staff took care of me from start to finish. Recommended a tasting pairing menu between drinks and food. Music was incredible in the Collins bar downstairs. Outside terrace smoking area had heaters and a view of the dublin mountains as well as some of the baggot street area and beyond. The duck was indescribable paired with a beautiful merlot. Finished off the evening with an espresso martini and butterscotch dessert.

The hotel boasts stunning décor, ensuring every comfort in the room. The staff, particularly the receptionists, are incredibly helpful and friendly, providing exceptional and attentive service. I would gladly rebook in a heartbeat 💓

Spent three nights in the brand new Leinster Hotel in the heart of Dublin. My gosh this hotel is truly a five-star experience. The staff is outstanding, the décor is thoughtful and - get this - they have the fanciest toilets I've ever used in my life! Heated seats, conformed for comfort instead of just flat, a bidet for washing and dryer for - well - drying. I predict this will end up one of the top three or four hotels in Dublin.

Stayed here for two nights recently. The hotel is in a good location, walking distance to town. Quiet area at night. Staff are very friendly, especially the food/bev staff. Room was snug, but beautiful, had everything you needed, very comfortable beds. All toilets gorgeous as is the decor throughout the hotel. Had breakfast both mornings upstairs, very good service. Bar downstairs serves good cocktails. All in all, we enjoyed staying here, and would highly recommend it.

Excellent staff . Lovely spot. Will call back because off the staff

Beautifully designed and perfectly located hotel. Food & service in the rooftop restaurant are exceptional.

Ideally located for discovering Dublin or for enjoying a luxury city break in the Irish capital, The Leinster is situated on the southside of Dublin city centre, in the heart of the Georgian neighbourhood. The hotel is a short stroll from the historic Merrion Square Park, which is surrounded by imposing terraced houses dating back to the 18th century. Merrion Square is one of the best-preserved Georgian Squares in Dublin and has been restored to its historic layout, allowing visitors to take a walk back in time. Discover a bustling city centre filled with charm, character, and tradition through some of Dublin’s most iconic visitor attractions. With a plethora of annual cultural events taking place in Dublin throughout the year, such as The St. Patrick’s Festival, Bloomsday in honour of James Joyce, The International Literature Festival, Taste of Dublin and Dublin Fringe Festival, visitors can experience Dublin's culture and traditions.
