Dalata Hotel Group has opened a brand new 140-bedroom four star Maldron Hotel Merrion Road in Dublin city centre.
The new hotel is part of a mixed-use development constructed by McAleer & Rushem, which also involved the construction of 64 apartments, five townhouses and a basement car park where the hotel has access to 68 car parking spaces. Dalata, which is the biggest hotel operator in the country, said the opening of the new hotel will add another 77 new hospitality jobs in the city.
Commenting on the opening, Dalata CEO Dermot Crowley said: “We will have added 1,902 rooms to our portfolio in the year to the end of 2022 across prime locations in Dublin, Glasgow, Manchester, Bristol and Dusseldorf. The opening of Maldron Hotel Merrion Road demonstrates our continued commitment to Dublin as a key market for Dalata, and we are delighted to be adding a further 77 new hospitality jobs in the city."
