The Marker Hotel
A modern retreat in Dublin
VERIFIED LUXURY
We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.
We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.
Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.
While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

Four-Star

In a city rife with landmarks and a history that stretches back centuries, it's refreshing to discover the modern side of
Dublin. One place you’ll find it is at The Marker Hotel, opened in 2013 on the edge of the Grand Canal in a neighborhood lovingly called the Silicon Docks.
The whole area boasts a contemporary-chic vibe complete with one-of-a-kind art installations, the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre and technology businesses peeking around every corner.
Despite the setting, The Marker’s actual building speaks more to Ireland’s natural surroudings. For example, the checkerboard facade is an ode to the hexagonal stones of the Giant's Causeway.
The name pays homage to the country, and comes from the historical marker in the Grand Canal that dictated the end of the trade route. In this way, the Marker showcases both a love for the island while tipping a hat to its future.
