The Library Bar

The Library Bar at The Central Hotel combines the charm and elegance of a bygone age with the most modern facilities and services. Tucked away on the first floor, the Library Bar is a haven of peaceful luxury. The welcoming atmosphere and the fine furnishings make it a popular venue for daytime business meetings, morning coffee, light lunches, afternoon tea, pre-dinner drinks, and even a nightcap before retiring. No wonder people who love the library Bar are trying to keep it a secret for the fear it will become overrun! Enjoy a glass or two of Dublin’s famous brew Guinness or a Jameson on the rocks, or for the Ladies a nice shot of Baileys. After shopping at nearby Brown Thomas on Grafton it is the ideal venue to unwind. Going to the Theatres nearby, drop in for a relaxing aperitif. 2015 Voted 18 in the “Top 150 Bars Outside the US Poll” (The Daily Meal) Read More 2012 Overall “Best Hotel Bar” Winner from the National Hospitality Awards. Profile Description A glorious bar tucked away on the first floor of Dublin’s Central Hotel, the Library Bar has a delightfully old fashioned feel to it. Inside one finds a crackling fire and high backed chairs, soft lighting and a sophisticated atmosphere. It is peaceful and elegant, grown up in the very best sense. Table service and inviting sofas add to the appeal. There’s a good array of drinks and the occasional ripple of piano music. The ideal place to sit and think and talk and reminisce over a pint of the black stuff or a good glug of whiskey.
