The Clarence

The Clarence benefits from a beautiful location, right in the heart of Temple Bar and on the banks on the River Liffey. This gorgeously decorated boutique hotel also has a unique claim to fame: while the hotel dates back to 1852, it has been owned by U2 frontman Bono and lead guitarist The Edge since the 90s. Each room and suite has been carefully and individually designed, and each features bespoke art and cozy furnishings - the king-size double beds are amazing. For true rock n’ roll indulgence, book the Penthouse Suite, which comes complete with a panoramic rooftop terrace overlooking the river and a piano. The hotel bar is stunning, with a pastel-hued art-deco style straight out of your Instagram feed, and serves coffee, pastries, and drinks all day long.
