In general the varities of mastiff breeds are the largest ones including breeds like the Tosa and the Mastiff and the St Bernard for weight
And the Irish Wolfhound and the Great Dane for height
People tend to refer to the extra large dogs as 'giant breeds'

Irish wolfhounds are the tallest. They are in the Hound group...

St. Bernards are the heaviest along with the mastiff. Both are working dogs.

Biggest dogs in the world are the Pyrenean Mastiff and the Spanish Mastiff (very rare Mastiff breeds) both of which can grow up to 90 cms in height compared to the Irish wolfhound which grows to 79 cms in height.
