Dublin’s newest hotel is set to take the Docklands to new heights with 183 modern guest rooms with sweeping skyline views, vibrant social spaces designed for work and play and offering a welcome cocktail on arrival.

Moxy Dublin Docklands opens its doors, following a multi-million euro investment by MKN Property Group. Moxy Hotels, the experiential hotel brand, are part of Marriott Bonvoy’s portfolio of 31 brands. Rising 15 storeys above the River Tolka, the brand-new property, managed by EQ Hotels, brings a fresh energy to the city’s hotel scene, offering stylish  accommodation for business and leisure travellers alike.

With 183 guestrooms featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, every guest can enjoy sweeping views across the capital city and Dublin Bay waterfront, from Croke Park to the Aviva Stadium and the Convention Centre. As a dog-friendly hotel, four-legged companions are welcome too.

The new hotel pairs comfort and industrial design with a sense of fun — think plush bedding and high-speed Wi-Fi. Every stay begins with a check-in at the bar and a complimentary cocktail or mocktail on arrival, setting the tone for a social, high-energy space designed for both work and play.

Inside, the first-floor lobby overlooking the river is a buzzing social hub with co-working spaces, leafy corners and eclectic furnishings softening the industrial finish. There’s a library to browse and a “Plug-In” zone for spontaneous huddles.  A well-equipped 24/7 gym and dedicated ironing room keep routines on track, ensuring every detail is covered.

Whether in town for a conference, a concert, or a weekend of sightseeing and shopping, the hotel offers an ideal base in the heart of the vibrant Docklands. Its location beside East Point Business Park places corporate guests within walking distance of the IFSC, while there are easy bus, Dart and Luas connections to the city centre, Croke Park, EPIC Museum, the Aviva Stadium, the Convention Centre and the 3Arena. The nearby Greenway also offers a scenic 2.2km  walkway and cycle route linking to Dublin Port and onwards to the Clontarf Promenade with the 3Arena a 15 minute walk.

Food and drink is casual and flexible. The hotel serves a healthy breakfast each morning, while light bites are available throughout the day and into the evening.  The bar at Moxy is the beating heart of the hotel, serving everything from a  morning cappuccino to transforming into a social hub of the Docklands at night – serving cocktails, cold beers and good vibes.

For corporate clients, the hotel offers flexible rates, a meeting room for up to eight people, and access to the Marriott Bonvoy loyalty programme, with exclusive rates, complimentary upgrades and points that can be exchanged with airline partners.

“We are thrilled to welcome guests to Moxy Dublin Docklands. From the sweeping skyline views to our atmospheric lobby and bar, we’ve created a space that reflects the energy of Dublin’s Docklands while giving travellers everything they need — whether they’re here for business, a concert, or simply to explore the city,” said Sinead Derham, general manager of Moxy Dublin Docklands.

Commenting on the opening Brian McKeon of MKN Property Group , said “Our goal is to offer a unique blend of stylish comfort, playful experiences and business facilities that resonate with short-term leisure and business travellers. The Docklands’ dynamic spirit aligns perfectly with our vision, and we are delighted to welcome travellers from around the world.”

The opening comes hot on the heels of the opening of Moxy Belfast City, which opened earlier this year, and Moxy Cork in 2024.
