This hotel is in a brilliant location in a nice part of Dublin. The room was lovely - very funky but also functional. We loved the window seats - this was a nice touch. The room was starting to look ever so slightly tired around the edges - a few bumps here and there but nothing major and I'm sure they will keep on top of this. The bed was heavenly - very comfortable - and the room very well equipped (although slippers would have been the icing on the cake!)
The things we didn't like so much were:
1. The safe locks using your room key - I have not encountered this before but felt it was not that secure - surely that means it can be accessed by anyone who has a room key card?!
2. There is noticeable noise penetration from the corridor - I don't know whether the doors could be better insulated to reduce this. The cleaning staff were not particularly noisy but we did find this noise disturbed us in the morning. We used the aircon and found the hum from that (which was not at all disturbing) quite effectively muffled the noise from the corridor. Otherwise the room was very quiet.
We ate in all three of the restaurants - Thorntons, Citron and the bar. Thorntons was simply amazing and well worth a splurge if you can make it there during your stay. Breakfast in Citron was very impressive - everything worked like clockwork, the food was excellent and even when it got very busy the staff seemed completely unfazed. The service was very good - you didn't need to ask for things that were missing, they just appeared before you noticed their absence. The bar was also a great place to hang out at any time of day - and did very nice food as well.
Overall, a great stay and we would definitely go back!

Stayed here with my husband for 2 nights. Great impressive lobby with open fire. Rooms modern, spacious and clean. Fab 4 poster bed with chocolates delivered every night, amazing outside balcony with table and chairs looking onto St Stephen's Green, lovely bar and staff and marble bathroom.
Fab apart from noisy cleaners in the morning which was the only thing that let it down!

We had a wonderful time on our honeymoon in Ireland. I would strongly encourage everyone to consider staying at the Fitzwilliam. The hotel is ideal for a central location. The staff was very helpful. Day and night we were able to ask questions about trips out into the countryside. The hotel was easy to navigate from when we would take day trips out into the city for shopping or to see tourist destinations. The food in the restaurants at the hotel was reasonably priced. Thank you especially to the concierge staff, Tony, Tony, Bud and Bob. And Joanna in Reservations!
