I’ve just woken up in one of the most central rooms in Dublin. I’ve opened the curtains to reveal a view taking in a rose garden, centuries-old maple trees and a Victorian museum building.
Popping across the hallway, I take a seat in a quaint little dining room, where I’m served a breakfast of bacon, scrambled eggs and soda bread by a chatty hostess who tips a secret lunch spot in the city (“Don’t put that in the paper!”). When I pick up a guest book, the last entry is by a visitor from California. She has signed her name, and left a neat little note: ���Peaceful amidst the raw energy of Dublin.”
