The Grand Hibernian has been described as a “relaxed country house on wheels.” Inspiration for the interiors of the Grand Hibernian was drawn from Ireland’s unique character and mythology as well as Dublin’s Georgian architecture. The color scheme was influenced by Ireland’s flora and fauna.
Two dining carriages will serve cuisine rivalling the best restaurants in Dublin. Dining aboard the Belmond Grand Hibernian is truly a taste sensation. From wonderful artisan cheeses and superb smoked fish to the freshest seasonal vegetables and Irish whiskies, the onboard menus feature exceptional and authentically Irish fare.
