Brooks Hotel Review

A two-minute walk from Grafton Street, the Brooks is the perfect place to sit and recover if the Irish rain plays havoc with your plans: public spaces and the bar are warm and full of leather chairs, high-veneer oak paneling, and decorative bookcases. Even though it has nearly 100 rooms, this hotel likes to describe itself as a boutique property, and it does manage to convey the classy, personal touch of a much smaller establishment. The guest rooms are bright if a little functional, with cream and beige tones. The beds are so big you could get lost in them, and each comes with a five-choice "pillow menu." Situated so near to the Gaiety Theatre, the hotel's Jasmin Bar is the ideal spot for a pre- or post-theater drink.
