After eight months of nipping and tucking the 5 Star Shelbourne Hotel will finally reveal its multi-million euro facelift next month.
100,000 bricks have been cleaned, 200 chimney pots and 300 windows have been restored under the photoshopped awning.
'It's a long way to Tipperary' was recorded in one of the suites, Grace Kelly dined in the Horeshoe Bar and actor Peter O'Toole had a champagne bath in the iconic hotel.
