The Marker Hotel, Dublin

Grand Canal Square, Docklands, Dublin 2, D02 CK38, Ireland (show on map)

Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“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 Guardian review:

“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.”

Telegraph review:

“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.”

What guests liked

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.

Exceptional stay especially with children

Exceptional hotel with best in class service, food, and the best for children. They treated our children with such care and comfort providing them special treats that made them feel warm and welcome. Sleeping quality is excellent with customized pillows and other high quality finishes. This is an exceptional hotel and stay.

Nothing to improve

Our favourite hotel in Dublin.

Our favourite hotel in Dublin. Excellent service, comfy rooms and tasty cocktails. Wonderful leisure centre and spa.

We stay here at least once a year for about 10 years, we thought a nice “welcome back”would be good as the receptionist’s should view our history. We are always asked have you stayed here before? Not a negative but just a small touch that could be good for the hotel.

Good location especially if you going to the Dublin arena

Great location- not busy but close to the centre and the arena, good spa facilities, a comfortable bed, attentive staff

The room was a bit rundown for the price charged; a cracked sink, the window was sealed and there was a smell in the room like someone had been smoking

Very good

The food was gorgeous, the choice of drinks amazing and the level of service was fantastic. Really loved the room, beautiful design with everything we needed. Coffee machine, herbal teas, bottled water with a fully stocked mini fridge (which you have to pay for everything you eat/drink)

Parking is not free cost us €32 for the night also the car park is not well maintain. We were forced to that a long route to our car as there was a drug addict asleep in the doorway to the car park. We requested earlier check in and ended up waiting an extra a hour and 20 minutes. Very slow check in.

Absolutely fabulous

I loved everything about the hotel, could not fault one thing

On google maps the hotel is not listed correctly, it kept bringing us somewhere else. We wasted so much time trying to find it due to google maps not being up to date. The car park is very limited. I travel a lot for work but think the car park situation would put me off staying there for work

Excellent, needs more personalisation to justify price, staff need to be not be as dismissive

room was so modern, amazing style bathroom was amazing, lotions and conditioners important, especially at the price you pay choice of dining at the rooftop bar was excellent

worst thing for us was our room was meant for someone else. we had personalised note and a letter, a bowl of fruit and a lady called to the door with a chocolate. I feel if they knew it was just us staying we wouldn't have got the same treatment, and it is the personalised extra touches you don't have to pay for that make a place special, and encourage you to go back. the woman at the front of house would not let us up the the rooftop, even though we were guests, saying that it was full. we insisted and when we got up the whole place was nearly empty.

Overall I enjoyed my stay at the Marker Dublin and will return, but may breakfast somewhere else.

The room was very well laid out and very comfortable and very much to five star status. I have to say I thought that the breakfast, whereas it was good was very overpriced an €32 per person, particularly as the buffet section was missing a number of items, in particular bread. I did not frequent the bar during my stay.

I covered the cost of the breakfast in the aforementioned which was very over priced for the product delivered. I had just one un-pleasant interaction with one of the door men whom I thought was very arrogant, however the receptionist interceeded and immediately resolved my issue. I will say that overall the staff were very pleasant and efficient.

We had dinner reservation yesterday and when my husband went too check, he was told the reservation was cancelled as there was an event and nobody bothered to send an email or contact us and we had gone on a day trip to Giant causeway and were told we could have dinner at another restaurant at the facility and ended up having dinner at the roof top restaurant , where the food was ok but did not meet the expectation , I am sorry to say this but something which you need to know

My husband and I enjoyed our stay in Dublin and loved this hotel location. Kevin was exceptional for providing info on attractions and best ways to get around the city. He is a gem.

Our room was an adjoining room and we could hear the people next door chatting late into the night.

We really enjoyed our stay overall - a lovely hotel with great food and attentive friendly and helpf

Breakfast was outstanding! So much choice and delicious! Spa was lovely. Staff were very welcoming and couldn’t do enough to help. Especially porters on arrival and departure re looking after luggage. Also our room was upgraded! Loved the towels and shower .The bed and pillows were very comfortable . Loved the complimentary Irish shortbread and pillow chocolates and bottled water - thank you !

Our tv didn’t work at all and we reported this to reception. Someone did arrive to attempt to fix it but with no success- so had no tv for first evening. Someone came the following day and it was repaired. We were disappointed that the bar area’s kitchen closed at 8pm on Saturday evening as we were hoping to eat there.

I booked because of the parking mainly but they don't really have parking unless you want valet parking. If you don't want valet parking, you have to walk out of the building and around the corner to the parking.

Great stay in this amazing hotel

Amazing hotel in a modern picturesque part of Dublin. Spacious, well-equipped rooms finished in contemporary style. Super friendly and helpful staff. Delicious food and excellent service. It was our third stay and we got an upgrade to the corner suite with the view of the dock area. We absolutely loved it!! The spa and wellness centre is one of our favourites - tranquil atmosphere, large jacuzzi, infinity pool and comfy loungers really helped to relax and disconnect from the hustle and bustle of the city. Looking forward to coming back!

Loved my stay

The location was ideal as it is very close to town and restaurants and shops. The staff were absolutely brilliant, full of smiles,welcoming and happy to help no matter the time. They solved minor issue we had even in the middle of the night, even the doormen were welcoming. The hotel was also clean and facilities are well maintained. I’m happy I went with the reviews and booked the stay.

Great city, great people. Would I go back? Probably not.

5 star hotel situated away from the madness of Temple Bar down by the canal. Great staff, great facilities, just a bit pricey. Breakfast is €38 each. All in all, a good trip.

Pricey, even for a top rated hotel.

Absolutely exceptional in every respect. The first time I've ever been to a hotel (and I've travelled worldwide and extensively) where excellence was the norm. Kevin the doorman was a legend, sooo helpful and went above and beyond.

Our stay was too short. We'd really like to live here :)

Amazing check in staff - Ariane and Astrid. Breakfast to room was late and had to be brought in 3 consignments - first was the breakfast, 10 minutes later the tea and coffee and 2 minutes later the toast.
