Recently declared the second-most coffee-obsessed capital city on earth, Dublin is overflowing with an exciting range of new hotels, experiences and tours as it welcomes back international travellers.
There are 181 coffee shops for every 100,000 people in Dublin, which is the second highest concentration on the list of top ten capital cities surveyed recently by Brew Smartly. Only Pago Pago, the capital of American Samoa, has a higher concentration of coffee shops per person.
In a city renowned as the home of Guinness, Dublin’s thriving coffee culture has an identity all of its own, and combined with the riches of traditional Irish culture, as well as literature, history, iconic attractions, food, shopping, stories, events and mountain-to-sea outdoor adventure, the Irish capital has everything you need for an amazing holiday.
Increasing value and choice, there are 24 fantastic new hotels in the pipeline for Dublin in the next couple of years, with Hampton by Hilton Dublin Four Courts, the Beckett Locke aparthotel next to the 3Arena and the Wren Urban Nest in St Andrew’s Lane among those opening this summer.
Other recent additions where you can enjoy a traditional Céad Míle Fáilte – a hundred thousand welcomes – include the Hyatt Centric Liberties, the Hard Rock Hotel, the Moxy Dublin and The Grafton Hotel, only steps from the renowned Grafton Street shopping and St Stephen’s Green.
Also look out for the Holiday Inn at Dublin Airport, The Mayson in the city’s Docklands, the Wilder Townhouse, a residents only luxury boutique hotel in the city centre, and The Georgian Rooms located in Howth, one of the many coastal villages that lie close to the Irish capital.
