The Maldron Hotel Merrion Road is operated by Dalata Hotel Group Plc as part of a unique mixed-use development constructed by McAleer & Rushe, which included the construction of 64 apartments, five townhouses, and a basement car park, where the hotel has access to 68 car-parking spaces, offering a discounted parking rate to guests.

Maldron Hotel Merrion Road general manager Bruno Gorisch said that the hotel is a great place for business travellers or for a city break, when rest and relaxation is the only item on the agenda, adding, “It is rare to find a hotel which suits the needs of so many people. We have guests who come for the vibrant and extensive shopping, bar and restaurant scene in Dublin city centre, while others enjoy a tranquil break with walks along Sandymount Strand or enjoy a coffee in one of Monkstown’s or Blackrock’s many cafes.

“Whether it’s a dream escape, family break or business trip, a stay at Maldron Hotel Merrion Road provides the perfect combination of a modern, well-invested hotel and friendly, efficient service.”
