History
The Devlin opened on 1 November 2018 at 117-119 Ranelagh Road, Dublin 6. The Irish Times called it Ranelagh's first hotel and Press Up's first new-build in Dublin, a four-storey block approved by An Bord Pleanala in June 2016 after seven objections. There are 40 rooms. Opening coverage named Lawrence & Long as architects and O'Donnell O'Neill as interior designers, and described ModPods, SuperPods, BunkPods, and one TriPod. Layla's is the rooftop restaurant. The cinema opened as The Stella Ranelagh, a 42-seat room. The hotel's own site now calls it The Devlin Cinema and still counts 40 rooms.
The setting
117-119 Ranelagh Road, Dublin 6, at the southern end of Ranelagh village. The Luas stop is about five minutes away, and the city centre is a longer walk or a short tram ride. This is not Grafton Street and not the Docklands.
