InterContinental Dublin formerly the Four Seasons Hotel Dublin, is a luxury hotel located in Ballsbridge, on the south side of Dublin. It was part of the Toronto-based Four Seasons chain of luxury hotels and resorts. The InterContinental Dublin was rebranded on 1 January 2015.[2] Built in 2001, the hotel has at various times been included in Travel and Leisure's Top 500 hotels since its opening.[3][4]

In 2011 the hotel was sold out of receivership by Anglo Irish Bank to the Livingstone Brother's London & Regional Properties for an estimated €15m.[5]

In 2019 the hotel was acquired by a John C. Malone-backed vehicle for an estimated €50m.[6]

The hotel also houses serviced apartments at the penthouse level.[7][8]
