Number 31
COST: $
<p><strong>The Hotel:</strong> Old-world elegance meets hipster mod at this intimate, walled compound, where the 21 rooms are spread between a classical Georgian townhouse and two architect-overhauled carriage houses. Rooms in the former have high ceilings with ornate crown molding, espresso-colored walls, wingback chairs, and (in some cases) original fireplaces; those in the latter have a groovier aesthetic, with recessed lighting, modernist furnishings, and a communal sunken lounge where leather banquettes surround a fireplace. In the morning, you can fuel up with house-made breads and marmalades or a “Full Irish” (bacon, sausage, eggs, tomato, and potato cake) in the sunny breakfast nook.</p> <p><strong>The Locale:</strong> Although Number 31 sits on a quiet street, it's right in Dublin's city center. St. Stephen's Green is just two blocks away; the National Gallery Museum is just a little farther; and a 20-minute stroll brings you to St. Patrick's Cathedral and Dublin Castle.</p>
