Christmas in Dublin City Centre
Dublin takes on a different atmosphere during December. Streets are decorated, shops prepare their Christmas displays and cafés, pubs and restaurants fill with people meeting family and friends before the holidays.
Grafton Street is one of the main places to experience Christmas in Dublin. During December, you will find Christmas lights above the street, busy shops and street performers adding to the atmosphere. It is also one of the best areas for anyone planning to finish their Christmas shopping while staying in the city.
From PREMIER SUITES Dublin Leeson Street, you can walk towards St Stephen’s Green and continue straight onto Grafton Street. This means you can enjoy the city without needing to plan your day around parking or longer trips into the centre.
Christmas Shopping in Dublin
A Christmas trip to Dublin will usually include some shopping.
Grafton Street has a mix of international brands, Irish retailers and department stores. Nearby streets including Dawson Street, Wicklow Street, South William Street and Drury Street give you even more choice.
The Creative Quarter around Drury Street is worth exploring if you are looking for independent shops, Irish products, gifts or somewhere to stop for coffee or lunch.
You can also continue towards Temple Bar, Dame Street and Henry Street if you want to see more of the city.
One of the main advantages of choosing Dublin City Centre Christmas Accommodation is being able to drop your shopping back at your apartment before heading out again. Instead of carrying bags around Dublin for the rest of the day, you can return to PREMIER SUITES Dublin Leeson Street, take a break and head back into the city later.
Visit St Stephen’s Green
St Stephen’s Green is just a short walk from Leeson Street and gives you a quieter place to visit between shopping, dining and sightseeing.
The park covers around 9 hectares in the centre of Dublin and has paths, gardens, trees and open spaces. A walk through St Stephen’s Green on a winter morning is an easy addition to your Christmas break.
From here, you are also close to several parts of Dublin worth visiting, including Merrion Square, the National Gallery of Ireland, the National Museum of Ireland and the streets around Georgian Dublin.
Enjoy Dublin’s Christmas Lights
One of the simplest ways to enjoy Dublin at Christmas is to explore the city after dark.
Areas around Grafton Street, O’Connell Street, the River Liffey and other central locations traditionally feature seasonal lighting and decorations throughout the Christmas period.
You do not need a packed itinerary. Start around St Stephen’s Green, walk through Grafton Street and continue towards College Green and the River Liffey.
Stop for dinner, visit a pub or pick up something warm along the way.
Festive events and light installations can change each year, so it is worth checking the Dublin Christmas programme before your visit.
Christmas Food and Drinks in Dublin
December is also a good time to explore Dublin’s food scene.
Leeson Street gives you access to restaurants, cafés and pubs across Dublin 2. Nearby Baggot Street, Camden Street, Dawson Street and South William Street all have plenty of choices for breakfast, lunch, dinner or drinks.
For a traditional Dublin evening, find a pub, order something to eat and settle in for a few hours. If you would rather have a quieter night, staying in a serviced apartment gives you another option.
You can prepare your own food, pick up something from a nearby restaurant and eat in your apartment or make breakfast before heading into the city.
That extra flexibility can make a big difference during December when restaurants and cafés are busy with Christmas parties and group bookings.
Make a Night of a Christmas Show
Dublin has a strong theatre and live entertainment scene throughout the year, and Christmas brings another packed programme.
The Gaiety Theatre is particularly convenient when staying at PREMIER SUITES Dublin Leeson Street, with the theatre located close to Grafton Street.
You can also check Christmas schedules at venues such as the National Concert Hall, Bord Gáis Energy Theatre, 3Arena and several smaller theatres around Dublin.
Staying in the city means you can combine a show with dinner or drinks without having a long trip back to your accommodation afterwards.
Why Choose a Serviced Apartment for Christmas
Hotels are not your only option when looking for Dublin City Centre Christmas Accommodation.
A serviced apartment gives you more independence during your stay.
At PREMIER SUITES Dublin Leeson Street, you have your own space to relax after a full day in the city. Having separate areas for sleeping, relaxing and preparing food makes a serviced apartment useful for couples, solo visitors and anyone staying in Dublin for several nights.
It is particularly helpful at Christmas when you may have shopping bags, gifts, luggage and winter clothing taking up extra space.
You can also decide when and where you want to eat rather than relying on hotel dining times.
If you are spending a few days in Dublin visiting family or friends, your apartment can give you somewhere to return to between plans without feeling like you need to spend the entire day out.
