If money is no object or for that particularly special occasion you may consider the Clarence Hotel. Owned by Bono & the Boys in U2, it is the premier luxury hotel in Temple Bar and very popular with visiting celebrities. The atmosphere and service in their Octogan Bar is top class and the restaurant is excellent. I think that the design is too modern and minimalist, but most folks seem to love it. I would expect a personal introduction to the owners but judging from the fact that it is fully booked most of the time, there are obviously a lot of people on higher budgets than me!
If you are looking for somewhere stylish that is a little bit different, the Morgan Hotel may be for you. It is very modern boutique style hotel with beautiful rooms and suites. In addition to all usual things you expect in a hotel, the rooms all have CD Players & Modem Points. It is a little expensive, but worth the money when you take into account the location & room quality. Try to get a room at the back as the front can be noisy until the early hours, particularly at weekends.
Also on the river's quays and at the other end of the luxury scale is the Morrison Hotel . Designed by Douglas Wallace and award-winning couturier John Rocha, the Morrison's unique blend of oriental calm and luxury will turn your holiday into a Zen experience.
The Brooks Hotel is a designer boutique hotel which pays great attention to detail and personal service. Located in the heart of Dublin City, the Brooks Hotel is just a short walk to all of Dublin's sights and attractions including Trinity College, Grafton Street, Government buildings and Dublin Castle.
