The Marker Hotel located in one of the most vibrant cultural hubs of Dublin city – Grand Canal Square – is an urban retreat for those who crave the unconventional. A member of the prestigious Leading Hotels of the World®, you can expect first class standards of service from the moment you step on site.

The Grand Canal Dock area is the thriving centre of Dublin’s tech scene but is also home to an increasing number of wonderful restaurants, bars and cafés. The Marker Hotel contributes to this dining scene significantly with their Brasserie, The Marker Bar and the renowned Rooftop Bar and Terrace. The food philosophy at The Marker is straightforward menus that celebrate the superb quality ingredients that have been meticulously sourced by Gareth Mullins, with a special emphasis on local producers as much as possible.

Designed by Portuguese “starchitect” Emmanuel Aires Mateus, the hotel is a design hotel in every sense of the word. The architecture was inspired the elemental nature of the Irish landscape, the design references the primordial rock landscape of Ireland, areas such as the Giant’s Causeway, the Burren and the Irish Coastline itself. This is best seen in the eroded spaces of the cavernous ground floor, which echo the passage of time, of water wearing down ancient rock formations to create a sequence of flowing public spaces from bar to reception to the Brasserie.

This unique contemporary design is carried through to the unique geometric layouts of their 187 bedrooms, to the stunning Rooftop Bar & Terrace, reaching across the cityscape to the stunning natural beauty of the mountains and the sea.
Their stunning Spa & Wellness boasts a 23 metre infinity pool – a genuine sanctuary for any guests and a rare find in such a central city location. The Marker’s conference and events facilities contain nine adaptable spaces with capacities ranging from 20-250 guests depending on use and configuration.
