The Ritz-Carlton, Powerscourt Lobby

TripKick.com has recently begun it’s expansion into International Destinations, and Dublin was one of our very first stops.  We were excited to include The Ritz-Carlton Powerscourt, Dublin- a wonderful resort style property just minutes outside of the city center.

The Ritz-Carlton Powerscourt, Dublin was built on The Powerscourt Estate in 2007, but enjoys much history and a setting that is nothing short of breathtaking.  An ideal respite for Dublin’s bustling cityscape, this Ritz-Carlton is truly unique, offering a tranquil environment with quintessential Irish charm.  The hotel itself was modeled after the historic Powerscourt Estate Residence, which leaves guests with a truly elegant residential feel.  On-property activities are endless, and include local nature hikes, tours of the neighboring Powerscourt Estate House and Gardens as well as a wide array of hotel services.  Fancy a weekend spa or fine dining experience at Gordon Ramsey’s, The Ritz-Carlton, Powerscourt has it.

The guest room experience at The Ritz-Carlton, Powerscourt is truly stellar and reflects both local character and charm along with the elegance of Ritz-Carlton.  Nearly half of its guest rooms are in fact suites, and even standard accommodations are some of the most spacious rooms you will find in Europe.  Select guest rooms and suites feature outdoor balconies or terraces, an ideal opportunity to take in the crisp air and look upon the rolling hills of Ireland.  Standard luxuries include meticulously appointed bathroom spaces, all with separate walk-in showers and deep soaking bathtubs.  Another standard feature are in-bathrooms televisions, something every hotel should have!  Guest rooms are elegantly appointed in a light and airy theme, comfortable and unimposing.
