Fodor's Review:
Sam Stephenson, Dublin's most famous and highly controversial modernist architect, strikingly renovated two Georgian mews in the early 1960s as a private home. They are now connected via a small garden to the grand house they once served. Together they form a marvelous guesthouse a short walk from St. Stephen's Green, which give you a choice of bedroom styles: Georgian elegance or cool modern. Owners Deirdre and Noel Comer serve made-to-order breakfasts at refectory tables in the balcony dining room. The white-tile sunken living room, with its black leather sectional sofa and modern artwork that includes a David Hockney print, may make you think you're in California. If that essay in Wallpaper-modern doesn't send you, you'll be happy enough ensconced in one of the period-style guest rooms, one of which -- No. 21 -- has a ceiling so lofty and corniced even a royal would feel at home.
