Ariel House Hotel

Ariel House is a charming 19^th century redbrick Victorian residence in the fashionable, tree-lined suburb of Ballsbridge, south of Dublin city centre. Period furniture and original paintings grace the rooms of this ornate, three-storey hotel and a Waterford-crystal chandelier hangs over the comfortable leather and mahogany furniture in the fireplace-warmed drawing room. The relaxed ambience at Ariel House offers the guest a opportunity to gratify the senses with gracious living. Given the timeless luxury and immaculate quality of Ariel House, it is not surprising that it received the highly acclaimed "Small Hotel of the Year" in 1996 from the Royal Automobile Association, the authoritative voice on guest accommodation in the UK and Ireland, and five diamonds from the AA.

Ariel House's thirty seven period rooms are individually decorated, designed to ensure your comfort. Each room has a telephone, tea and coffee facilities and television. A beautiful breakfast room is housed in the hotel's conservatory, where morning coffee and afternoon tea with freshly baked scones are served daily. Hotel amenities include a secretarial service, concierge, and on-site guest parking free of charge. Non-smoking rooms are available.

Ariel House is located on the south-side of Dublin city centre on Lansdowne Road, adjacent to Lansdowne Rugby International Stadium (and home to Ireland's Soccer internationals), the Royal Dublin Society (RDS) and the Institute of Public Administration (IPA). Just minutes away are the DART (local train with regular connections to south Dublin's seaside towns and city centre) and Dublin's main bus routes.
