"Rising as a sleek geometric landmark in Grand Canal Square amid Dublin’s “Silicon Docks,” this hotel mirrors the energy of the tech-driven Docklands around it. There’s a hip, contemporary feel throughout, from the light-filled lobby to the bedrooms accented with bold pops of color. Downstairs, a moodily lit infinity pool—the best in the city—pairs with a eucalyptus-scented steam room to create a cocooning spa atmosphere. Up top, the seasonal rooftop bar offers killer views across the city and out to the Dublin Mountains, with guaranteed access for guests and bartenders who are almost certain to become fast friends over a drink." - Ciara McQuillan, Matt Charlton
"Sleek and contemporary in the revived Docklands, this 187‑key landmark overlooks Grand Canal Square and puts the National Museum, the 3Arena, and an array of emerging restaurants within easy reach. Rooms are modern and calming, furnished by Irish designers, and corner suites frame some of the city’s best views across the canal to the Dublin mountains. Executive Chef Gareth Mullins leads Forbes Street, while a rooftop bar pours drinks with sweeping vistas. The spa is a showstopper—think a 23‑meter infinity pool, sauna, and eucalyptus steam room—and the concierge can arrange experiential outings from coastal freshwater plunges to a guided tour of Kildangan Stud." - Liam Hess, Nicole Kliest
"A hip Dublin base well-suited to late-summer museum-hopping and dining around town." - Jessica Puckett, Charlie Hobbs
"Dublin’s Docklands are known as the “Silicon Docks,” with the European headquarters of Facebook, Google, and Airbnb all taking up residence here. The Marker Hotel, a sleek geometric building in the middle of Grand Canal Square, is the district’s unofficial landmark. There’s a hip vibe throughout, from the light-filled lobby to the bedrooms bursting with pops of color. The moodily lit infinity pool is the best in the city, with a eucalyptus-scented steam room. Open seasonally, the rooftop bar has killer views of the city and as far out as the Dublin mountains. Guests have guaranteed access—and you're guaranteed to make friends with the bartenders." - CNT Editors, Nicholas DeRenzo

The Marker Hotel, a sleek geometric building in the middle of Grand Canal Square, is the district’s unofficial landmark. There’s a hip vibe throughout, from the light-filled lobby to the bedrooms bursting with pops of color. You’ll always find some young Dubliners having a drink in the atrium, and on sunny days the rooftop bar is sure to be hopping. Nice. What’s the crowd like?Tech heads (and yes, therefore, the Wi-Fi is super-quick and reliable). Otherwise: young and cool travelers who want first dibs on the rooftop bar. The good stuff: Tell us about your room.With pops of neon green and vivid purple, the rooms are stylish but not overdone—there’s no dizzying palette here. Floor-to-ceiling windows, marble bathrooms stocked with Malin+Goetz toiletries, and bathtubs (as well as showers) round out the offerings. How about other amenities on-site. Anything stand out?The rooftop isn’t only for drinking—it hosts free yoga classes for guests. What about other services and features?The moodily lit infinity pool is the best in the city, with a eucalyptus-scented steam room. Open seasonally, the rooftop bar has killer views of the city and as far out as the Dublin mountains. Guests have guaranteed access—and you're guaranteed to make friends with the bartenders. Bottom line: worth it, and why?If you want to see a different side of the city, or live your very best rooftop life, The Marker is the place to be." - Nicola Brady
