Rooms at the hotel, where celebs ranging from Bruce Springsteen to the Obamas have stayed, start from €595 in May, with breakfast from €29.50pp extra.

“You’ll find luxurious accommodations, including spacious bathrooms and attention to detail,” Tripadvisor says, along with a spa, 18m pool, two-Michelin star restaurant, and recently refurbished Cellar Bar. The Merrion also ranks 19th on its list of Europe’s best hotels.

“The hotel’s elegant vibe, incredible art collection, and professional staff set it apart,” the online travel giant says.
