The Marker Hotel, Dublin
Expert reviews
“The Marker is Dublin’s hottest new hotel, drawing trendsetters to its rooftop bar and tourists to its comfy, colorful, modern rooms. It’s part of the Daniel Libeskind-designed Grand Canal Square in Dublin’s new tech hub.”
Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Dublin.
“The Marker is without equal in this city of architecturally restrained lodgings. Rooms here are expansive (and expensive), with an angular, geometric feel, and its rooftop bar offers some of the best views in the city.”
“Glamorous, fashionable, and smarter than smart, Dublin’s Marker Hotel enjoys a waterside location, ritzy interiors, an impressive spa and a rooftop bar with vistas across the Dublin docklands. Bedrooms are spacious and inviting, and service is polished.”

All you need to know
The Maker Hotel is located in the emerging Docklands district of Dublin. It is a budding location that allows guests to quickly and easily explore and view key attractions like the Convention Centre, National Gallery of Ireland and Bord Gais Energy Theatre. There is never a dull moment in this city and this hotel’s ideal location puts guests front and center of it all.
The rooms are inspired by a cool-toned color palette combined with cobalt and citrus splashes. They are warm and inviting, especially when guests spot the large and comfortable bed. The rooms are coolly air-conditioned and the bathrooms entice guests to try out the separate marble-clad showers.
The other hotel amenities are just as great as the guest rooms. They include a full-service spa, restaurant, indoor pool area and ticket assistance to all the sight and need-to-see attractions. The ground floor features a cocktail bar and brasserie for a thoroughly entertaining time. Not to be outdone, the rooftop lounge and terrace feature 360-degree views of the city, which guests can enjoy with a drink. There is free Wi-Fi throughout the hotel.

Super comfortable and great staff but maybe could be more craic in the evening.
Room, spa and breakfast very good
When we returned from dinner in the city at about 12 midnight the cleaners were vacuuming the lobby and the place felt closed

Would easily stay there again. Great staff, food. Location, amenities and dog friendly.
Everyone was super helpful. Dog friendly. Reasonably priced parking. Good location close to fun areas but avoiding the riff raff.

Outstanding hotel! Wish we would have stayed longer.
Everything! The room, the restaurants, the rooftop bar, and the excellent staff. We did not want to leave!
It's not located in the heart of the city, but the square in front of the hotel compensates for the location, with people walking, talking, and having a great time.

My fantastic and brilliant review of the anantara hotel ;)
It was very comfortable and warm. The showers were also fantastic. On arrival there were complimentary cookies and cake.
I loved the sky bar, particularly the personalised lift up, although the food was overpriced, it was mediocre.

Nothing to complain about, really nothing

Exceptional
Everything and all the in-betweens. We were celebrating our Wedding night and honestly it was perfect. From checking in all the way to checking out. We felt taken care of and all the details made our stay truly special. The treatment was exceptional and it was just lovely to experience. The room was beautiful and had amazing views, the food at the rooftop was lovely and the spa facilities was the cherry on top! I have nothing but good words. Thank you very much to the Marker Hotel and staff. Your kindness and service was incredible. My husband and I look forward to staying with you again.
Absolutely nothing.

I cannot stress how wonderful the staff is here!!
The property was very comfortable and the decor was really well done.
There was minor wear of the carpet in the form of stains in the lounge area.

Clean and quiet rooms in business area
We stayed here twice. The first room was large and clean. Our view of the plaza was great. Staff was wonderful. They kept our excess bag for us while we went on a tour for a week. The doorman, Kevin, was most helpful for information about what to see and where to eat. He is good a getting a taxi for you and getting your bags sorted. Laundry service was fast and clean.
We stayed there twice. Our first room only had a fixed rain shower head and no wand. Rain shower heads are ridiculous. Our son's room had both. The second time we had both. The second time we were checked in immediately but our son had to wait 30 minutes for his room. Our first room had one tiny bottle of shower gel, the second had big bottles on the wall. Both times we checked in we were told that we got an "upgrade". The breakfast bar is 38 Euros, enough said. The bar/restaurant was good except for the chairs and tables. They have the worst chairs and tables for eating at I have ever seen. The location is more of a business district and not close to museums, parks and attractions. It may take a long time for a taxi or Uber during rush hour, so plan ahead if you have made reservations in another part of town.

Great hotel
Really pleasant and polite staff, Lukas was great! Very clean and elegant looking, a hotel that made you feel good!
Parking cost £40 euros because our van was too big, let us park our front as a one off, but didn’t mention how much it would cost!

Excellent & enjoyable stay
Beautiful property- comfortable rooms - large pool & jacuzzi for a city centre hotel - main restaurant had some of the best food we’ve had anywhere. Service impeccable, helpful & friendly staff.
Bathroom only had a shower & was a little on the small side & as slow walkers it took us a little longer to walk into the city centre but not a showstopper

Last stop on our way back to the US. Wonderful stay we loved it.
Staff wonderful. Professional, Friendly n very helpful.
Doorman Dave on Sunday morning ordered a taxi driver James that cost 40 euros to airport thought was a little unusual especially that he didn’t run a meter in the taxi.

Really luxurious and comfortable hotel.
The beds are super comfy and the bath is huge - great for a long soak after lots of walking! Could do with some bubble bath or salts int he bath area too!
The only thing that they dont have is a stair case (other than the fire exit) for when the 2 lifts get super busy at breakfast.
