Anantara The Marker Dublin Hotel: Bold Design on Grand Canal Square

Anantara The Marker Dublin Hotel is the most architecturally striking hotel in the Irish capital, its bold, faceted checkerboard façade a landmark on Grand Canal Square in the regenerated Docklands, beside Daniel Libeskind's Bord Gáis Energy Theatre. A Leading Hotels of the World Sustainability Leader, it pairs cutting-edge design with Anantara's warm hospitality and a spa.

The dining reaches from the water to the sky. Forbes Street by chef Gareth Mullins serves the finest Irish seafood and steaks; The Marker Bar & Lounge draws a laid-back, eclectic crowd; and the seasonal Rooftop Bar & Terrace takes in the city, the Dublin Mountains and the sea at sunset.

For a design-led Dublin stay, The Marker is a standout.
