Hoxton To Open in Dublin
The Hoxton will open its doors in Dublin’s Creative Quarter in November, marking the brand’s first property in Ireland.
Bringing its design-led, community-focussed ethos to Exchequer Street, the restored Victorian building (once the Central Hotel) will be home to 129 rooms, an inviting lobby complete with bar and Viking-era ruins, an all-day Peruvian-inspired restaurant Cantina Valentina, sandwich spot by day and natural wine bar by night Dollars, local landmark The Library Bar, and Groundwork - The Hoxton’s first ever nightlife venue.
With Ennismore’s in-house design team at AIME Studios leading on design throughout the hotel, the Lobby Bar and lounge on entry is, in true Hox-fashion, homey yet refined. With nods to the traditional Irish pub, the space plays with more stripped-back, industrial elements for a contemporary feel and pays tribute to the Viking history of the site discovered during development.
The 129 bedrooms come in classic Hox categories, including Snug, Cosy, Roomy and Biggy, with colour palettes taking inspiration from an autumnal Irish landscape.
Cantina Valentina, the hotel’s ground-floor restaurant and bar, serves up vibrant Peruvian flavours. With the concept already well-established at The Hoxton, Brussels, Cantina Valentina blends the warmth of a traditional family-run picantería with a modern spirit from the food and drinks to the design and atmosphere.
Dollars is a laidback sandwich shop inspired by New York deli culture, while Groundwork is a basement nightlife venue. The Library Bar will be back to represent a friendly meeting point for Dubliners.
