Top hotels in Merrion
Ruby Molly Hotel Dublin
Great hotel and general vibe but the fire alarm went off at 2:30am for 20+ minutes. Staff did not communicate with the guests standing outside. The fire department was not called. I just wish communication was better with the customers.

Clean room, great cafe/workspace downstairs and great staff. We also loved the location. I can’t think of anything bad to say. We had a great visit!
