ACCOMMODATION REVIEW
Situated in the heart of the city, the contemporary Morrison Hotel combines sophistication with conviviality and is the perfect expression of modern Dublin. Incorporating an original 18th century Georgian Townhouse façade, the Morrison faces directly onto the River Liffey just below the famous Halfpenny Bridge. The building is in keeping with existing structures along the quays, while its base of Portuguese limestone and gray granite is punctuated with large windows, which fill the Morrison Bar and Halo Restaurant with natural light.
As you enter the Morrison, the interior unfolds into a series of interlocking volumes from the reception into the double height restaurant and lounges. Internally, the building is organized in a U shape, while the high ceiling lobby, characterised by natural light, stone floors, timber paneling and handcrafted carpets, creates a striking impression on the first time visitor. The Morrison comprises six levels, including four levels of accommodation, which offer some of the finest, most modern bedrooms in Dublin. All rooms are equipped with every imaginable facility, including CD player, private bar, air conditioning and ISDN facilities.
The spacious Morrison Bar, located on the ground floor of the hotel overlooking the River Liffey, blends excellent design with the utmost in comfort, and is popular with guests and locals alike. Offering fusion style cooking, the renowned Halo Restaurant, washed by ever-changing light and shade from its atrium setting, provides a new culinary experience, while the Lobo Bar, featuring a taste of the Orient in a dramatic environment, has a private club feel and offers a late night bar until 3:00am.
