Autograph Collection Hotels has a portfolio of more than 170 independent hotels in 30 countries. Each of these hotels follows the vision of their founders, and as a result, each has its own characteristics. The aim in the Autograph Collection Hotels concept is not to create hotels that have the same features but to develop a portfolio of unique hotels, each of which has different characteristics, reflecting the culture of the regions in which they are located.

The Shelbourne has played a reputable role for the Irish society for nearly two centuries and has hosted famous guests throughout the years, including Princess Grace of Monaco, John F. Kennedy, Michael Collins, and Eamon De Valera.

The Shelbourne renovated by Guy Oliver has four main gastronomic places that guest can taste the Irish and international cuisine. The Horseshoe Bar, The Saddle Room Restaurant, The Lord Mayor's Lounge, and 1824 Bar are the places that offer unforgettable experiences.

In addition to 265 elaborately decorated guestrooms and 19 exclusive suites, The Shelbourne has ten historic meeting rooms for meetings and events with the option of private dining.

The Shelbourne is overlooking St. Stephen's Green, Dublin's grandest square, and a few steps near to Dublin's monumental landmarks Trinity College, parliament building Dáil Éireann, and the National Gallery.

The Shelbourne continues to welcome its guests with its historical identity and the advantages and privileges of the Autograph Collection Hotels.
