This hotel is just the right size and in the right place. Not too big, but big enough to have a great bar and restaurant, and located near Baggot Street that takes you a lot Dublin treasures, the National Museum, Trinity University, the Archeology Museum, etc. Baggot Street also has some good restaurants. The Dylan staff is uniformly competent, friendly and charming. On our taxi ride from the airport, our driver, a woman in her 60's pointed out a building a block away and said that it was The Royal City of Dublin Hospital, a "baby hospital," where she had been born and where she had delivered her children. The Dylan Hotel served as the dormitory of its nurses for a time. Both the Hotel and the Hospital remain the piece de resistance of Dublin architect Albert Edward Murray. Their distinctive redbrick accented by yellow terra cotta show off in the accompanying photos.
