A member of Ireland’s Blue Book, this luxurious boutique hotel is a stunning property occupying a large corner site on Limerick’s most gracious Georgian square and overlooking the leafy People’s Park. It's also only a minute’s stroll away from the City Art Gallery and, more surprisingly perhaps, the museum dedicated to the author of Angela’s Ashes, Frank McCourt, which is just around the corner. It is an unusual and rewarding hotel to visit, with a strong emphasis on good food - especially in the commitment by owner Patricia Roberts and her team to showcasing local suppliers - and also wine, with a menu of bio dynamic, organic and natural wines specially curated by Patricia and her team. But if pampering is also on your mind, the place to be is the vaulted basement, where the holistic Spa @ No. 1 offerings include a thermal spa (try the coal bunker sauna), sound wave therapy, tailor made programmes and a Zen garden; totally natural Voya range products produced by the Celtic Seaweed Baths in Sligo are used - it all adds up to a unique “Irish Spa” experience.
