Grand Hotel

About

Steeped in 19th-century character and charm, The Grand Hotel, located in the prestigious coastal village of Malahide, is an award-winning four-star property and one of Dublin’s leading venues for conferences, meetings, and corporate events. Originally built in 1835, The Grand has a distinguished history, from welcoming early railway travellers to evolving through several significant redevelopments. Its most recent chapter commenced in March 2025 when the hotel joined FBD Hotels & Resorts, initiating a substantial programme of investment and refurbishment. Enhancements include a redesigned lobby, a comprehensively upgraded Tara Suite, and refreshed ground-floor public spaces. Today, The Grand successfully combines heritage elegance with contemporary comfort, offering modernised public areas, extensive conference and banqueting facilities, and a high standard of service. The hotel features 202 elegantly appointed bedrooms and suites, many of which enjoy panoramic views across Dublin Bay. Guests also benefit from access to the renowned Arena Health & Fitness Club and exceptional dining at the Coast Restaurant, where panoramic sea views create a memorable setting for every meal. The Grand offers excellent accessibility for both domestic and international delegates, located approximately 25 minutes by car from Dublin International Airport. The hotel is just a short walk from public transport links offering direct connections to Dublin city centre and provides complimentary on-site parking for added convenience. Meeting and event facilities include a comprehensive range of boardrooms, syndicate rooms, large conference suites, and exhibition spaces, suitable for everything from senior executive meetings to large-scale national and international conferences. The Tara Suite, the hotel’s flagship conference venue, can accommodate up to 400 delegates and is fully equipped with advanced audiovisual technology, including a dedicated sound room to support high-quality presentations. Whether you are planning a corporate meeting or a international conference, The Grand provides an exceptional setting, a modern hotel with a rich past, proudly located in the heart of Malahide.
