The Dail, the houses of parliament in Ireland, are just around the corner and it was in fact in the Shelbourne hotel that the Irish Constitution was drafted in room 112 in 1922.


The historical feel of the Shelbourne was enhanced in the Celtic Tiger years in Ireland when the hotel was closed for an extensive refurbishment program which has resulted in a nice combination of the old and the new in terms of a modern hotel combined with the grandeur of the old days.
