Dockers in Dublin

12/04/2025: Lovely surroundings for afternoon tea! Staff pleasant. Beautiful art on view. Presentation really nice but lacked flavour.

06/04/2025: My friends and I went to the Art Tea at the Merrion Hotel on a Friday afternoon and were so delighted with the experience! The atmosphere is both warm and elegant, with a pianist playing quietly in the background. The afternoon tea offered many wonderful teas to sample along with 2 trays, 3 tiers high, of sandwiches and scones. But the Merrion Hotel's Art Tea is unique and quite special as they fuse these offerings with the hotel's impressive art collection, featuring delectable petit fours designed to model particular pieces of art found elsewhere in the hotel common areas. Our servers were quite attentive and knowledgeable. Daniel, in particular, shared his knowledge of the artwork as well as the history of the hotel. The level of service was above and beyond and reflects the hotel's attention to hospitality. A must-do for any one seeking a special afternoon with friends, family or clients!
