Premier Inn has confirmed it will open its second hotel in Dublin City Centre on Monday 20th March.
Located at Gloucester Street South in Dublin 2, the new 113-bedroom Premier Inn is a few minutes’ walk from Dublin’s world-famous Trinity College, Temple Bar and North Docklands.
The new hotel brings Premier Inn’s latest format bedrooms to the south of Dublin for the first time and doubles its presence in Dublin City Centre, an important growth market for the brand.
Gloucester Street South is the second Premier Inn hotel to open in Dublin city centre.Matt Gent, Development Manager for Premier Inn in Ireland, said:
“The new Gloucester Street South hotel kicks off an exciting year ahead for Premier Inn in Ireland. It is the first of four new Premier Inn hotels we are on track to open in Dublin and Cork city centres this financial year as we work towards our target of 4,000 Premier Inn rooms across Ireland.
“The new ten-storey is located on the corner of Princes Street South and Gloucester Street South and gives us a presence in the south east of Dublin city centre for the first time. It strengthens our network in the city centre once again and I am sure it will be a very popular choice with our business and leisure customers.
“As ever, I owe a huge thanks to our development partners Red Rock Developments and both ours and their professional and contractor teams for delivering such a wonderful new hotel for us in a superb location.”
Premier Inn opened its first hotel in Dublin City Centre at South Great Georges Street in November 2021. It has also operates a 213-bedroom hotel at Swords, close to Dublin Airport
