A design hotel on the north quays overlooking the Liffey, with Temple Bar just across the Millennium Bridge. Handy for Henry Street shopping too.
It is now part of Hilton's Curio Collection. Look for nods to its creative history in the design. The Morrison Grill cooks on a charcoal Josper grill, and Quay 14 is a whiskey and cocktail bar by the river.
