The hotel houses Restaurant Patrick Guilbaud, a two-Michelin-star establishment serving French cuisine. The Garden Room offers modern Irish dishes using local ingredients, including a dedicated vegan menu. The Cellar Bar, set in 18th-century wine vaults, serves pub-style food and Irish whiskey. No. 23 Cocktail Bar offers signature drinks and wines from the chairman's Bordeaux vineyard.
Spa and Art Collection
The Spa and Health Club includes an 18-meter heated saltwater pool, steam room, sauna, and treatment rooms using products from leading wellness brands.
