Royal Marine Hotel

About

The Royal Marine Hotel, a storied 4‑star luxury hotel on Dublin’s southern shore, has been welcoming guests since 1865. Built on the historic Hayes Hotel site, its 19th‑century façade blends Victorian elegance with contemporary amenities such as an 18‑metre heated pool, state‑of‑the‑art fitness centre and the award‑winning sansanaSPA. The hotel’s waterfront location offers sweeping views over Dublin Bay, while its family‑friendly facilities – an on‑site playroom, dedicated family rooms, and a children’s pool schedule – make it an ideal base for tours of Dún Laoghaire, the National Maritime Museum and surrounding coastal walks. Guests can indulge in three dining experiences, from the formal Dún Restaurant to the lively Hardy’s Bar & Bistro, and enjoy afternoon teas in the Atrium Lounge. The Royal Marine’s commitment to sustainability is reflected in its Eco‑Label certified operations, carbon‑reduction targets and locally sourced culinary initiatives, earning it the Green Hospitality Award. Whether you’re a history enthusiast, a couple seeking a romantic getaway, or a family on the lookout for comfort and convenience, the Royal Marine offers a sophisticated blend of heritage, luxury and modern sustainability.
