Mountjoy Square
Upper Gardiner Street, Dublin, IrelandTel: +353 1 605 7700
Although surrounded by magnificent Georgian townhouses, Mountjoy Square does not live up to its potential. In the 18th century, the square was the most elegant address in Dublin, but the migration of the gentry south of the river turned this district into a slum in a matter of decades. One hundred years ago, this part of town was one of the poorest areas in Europe, but recent refurbishments have given the area a new sheen. The square is traditionally landscaped with the ubiquitous trees, grass and roses but an adjacent tennis court seems somehow out of place in such elegant surroundings. The district deserves a visit, however: its Georgian terraces remain undiminished in elegance.
