The restored stone walls of the original 18th century building are impressive at this privately owned 4* hotel, which is best entered through an arch from the car park at the back, beside the River Liffey.
The reception area is comfortably set up with comfy armchairs and a fireplace and both the Piano Bar and the Riverbank Restaurant - attractive rooms with high arched ceilings and big wooden beams - have views out over the Liffey.
Accommodation is warmly furnished in a simple contemporary style and will appeal to business guests, with air conditioning, desk with data/fax lines and Wi-Fi internet; suites have balconies overlooking the gardens and river.
Arthur Guinness established his first brewery here in 1759, four years before the world famous St. James’ Gate Guinness Brewery, and it seems appropriate that the ‘black stuff’ should now be served here in the cosy and friendly ‘Arthur’s Bar’.
