In Dublin’s Victorian Quarter, on one of the tree-lined avenues with red brick facades, stands Butlers Townhouse Hotel. Enter through the stately door and into an oasis of country tranquillity in the heart of cosmopolitan Dublin. Since opening in March 1997, a stay at Butlers has provided guests with an experience rather than just a visit. Guests are transported into a bygone era to their own private club residence.

Interwoven with the elegant Victorian essence of the house, you will find the convenience of a modern hotel. The 20 superb bedrooms with air conditioning and modem points are discreetly dressed in the style of a more leisurely age. The personalised service is performed by carefully selected, skilled staff anticipating your every need.

The proprietors recognise that city hungry guests prefer to go out for dinner, especially in an area so well endowed with fine restaurants, or take lunch wherever they find themselves - shopping, sightseeing or on business. Be assured, however, that the gourmet Irish breakfast, and the light room service menu are superlative. The drawing room houses the bar, a congenial setting for sociable guests and friends.
