Description
One of the city's true grande dame hotels,
the Shelbourne has been a Dublin landmark since 1824. It has long
desperately needed a makeover, and in 2006, it got one. To
Dubliners, the Shelbourne symbolizes history and politics, and
nothing -- not even getting swallowed up by the Meridien Group --
can change that. The hotel has played a significant role in Irish
history -- the Irish constitution was drafted here in 1922, in room
no. 112 -- and it still attracts Irish politicians, especially to
its bars and restaurants. Before the renovation, the bars, lobby,
and tearooms were warmed by fireplaces and lighted by Waterford
chandeliers. As this book went to press, the renovation was not yet
complete, so we were unable to see what the transformation looked
like. However, the owners have promised to retain its charm and
they vowed that tea in the Shelbourne lobby would remain a local
tradition.
