The Bar/Lounge at Intercontinental Dublin By IHG

"The two restaurants and various lounges face inward over a courtyard garden, as do about a quarter of the bedrooms, so speak up if you want to see the outside world"

"Work up an appetite in the 46-foot indoor pool, the spa and the fitness center, before retiring to one of the restaurants, lounges and bars"

"The two on-site bars are a study in contrasts: while the bar has an old-school men’s club vibe—complete with leather chairs and an extensive whiskey “library”—the ICE bar is a slick, mirrored, white-on-white space meant for cocktail-sipping and sampling tapas"

"There are several dining options here, including a tapas bar, surf and turf restaurant, and a casual cafe"

"The central garden courtyard makes a lovely focal point each afternoon when tea is served in the lounge"

"The elegant Lobby Lounge offers an express lunch, perfect for those between meetings, and the Reading Room specializes in fresh, modern Irish cuisine in a comfortable, country house setting"

"The Reading Room and Lobby Lounge are perfect places to linger over tea or a drink"
