Fodor's Expert Review The Marker

Grand Canal Sq., Dublin, Co. Dublin, Dublin 2, Ireland

The checkerboard facade and sloping, honeycomb ceilings of the Marker make a bold architectural statement, while the view of the docklands from the stunning rooftop bar has quickly become a top Dublin delight. The bedroom aesthetic is Scandinavian modern with random splashes of bold colors like purple and citrus green. The heavy-handed design can be a little overwhelming in the public areas, but there is a wow factor about the almost space station–like bar.
