InterContinental Dublin

InterContinental Dublin stands in Ballsbridge, the leafy diplomatic and embassy quarter of Dublin 4, approximately 3 km south-east of the city centre. The area is home to the American Embassy, the Royal Dublin Society grounds, and Aviva Stadium, with the Sandymount and Lansdowne Road DART stations a 10–12 minute walk away. The hotel was originally built as a five-star property, retaining a grand residential character distinct from the compact city-centre hotels. The 197 rooms and suites are among the most spacious in Dublin, and Club Rooms and Club Suites access the Club Lounge with complimentary breakfast and evening canapés. Seasons Restaurant serves contemporary Irish cuisine with seasonal tasting menus and an à-la-carte option. The Inn on the Grounds is a relaxed pub-style bar popular with Aviva Stadium visitors and Ballsbridge locals. The spa offers a comprehensive treatment menu, and the indoor pool is complemented by a fully equipped fitness centre and two outdoor tennis courts — an unusual offering for a Dublin hotel. Business travellers benefit from an extensive conference and events programme: the hotel hosts some of the largest corporate and social events in Leinster. Concierge staff are experienced in organising Aviva Stadium transfers and Six Nations and rugby packages during major events. The property provides generous room sizing, valet parking, and a business centre, making it a preferred choice for extended corporate stays in the capital.
