The Inn on The Liffey occupies a prominent and highly visible position overlooking the River Liffey on Ormond Quay Upper, approximately 150m east of Capel Street and Grattan Bridge. The property is also within close walking distance of Temple Bar, Dublin’s principal cultural and tourism quarter, which is located immediately to the south-east. The surrounding area is mixed-use, comprising retail, office and a strong concentration of legal occupiers associated with the nearby Four Courts.

Nearby occupiers are predominantly commercial, including a number of established hospitality and licensed premises such as The Morrison Hotel, The Legal Eagle and The Boar’s Head. The proximity to Temple Bar further enhances the location, supporting strong footfall and demand from both tourists and the local evening economy. Major retail destinations are also close by, including Jervis Shopping Centre (approx. 600m east) and Henry Street (approx. 900m north-east).The property is well served by public transport, with the Four Courts and Jervis Luas stops within walking distance, numerous Dublin Bus routes nearby, and Heuston Station located approximately 1.7km to the west.
