Ireland hotels

It goes without saying that St. Patrick’s day is one of the biggest celebrations in Ireland. The national holiday starts on the 17th of March, but the festivities last almost a week. For fun-filled family activities like the annual Treasure Hunt, book a hotel near Dame Street like the luxurious Merchant House, where the search for clues begins. From the evening of the 31st of October to the 1st of November you can take part in Samhain, the Gaelic predecessor of Halloween. It celebrates the end of the harvest season and beginning of winter, with music, dance, and dressing up. The dead are also honoured with grand parades of a ghostly theme.

Dublin has a wide array of golf courses with sublime views. Staying at King Sitric on the Howth peninsula lets you enjoy seafood, and conveniently play at the Deer Park Golf Course while enjoying views of the coastline. The Address Citywest hotel is only 1 mile from Grange Castle Golf Club, where you play against a backdrop of the Dublin Mountains.

Grafton Street in Dublin is the country’s busiest shopping street, and where you can also listen to music of talented buskers all day long. The 5-star Westbury Hotel is just steps away, or book the Grafton Street Studios for a more affordable stay. If you’re after antique Georgian furniture or contemporary art, consider a stay at Hyatt Centric The Liberties Dublin, just a step away from Francis Street.
