Marriott to open ‘dual-brand development’ in city centre

Two new hotel properties are set to open next month on Leeside adding 200-plus bedrooms to Cork city’s offering.

Moxy Hotel and Residence Inn by Marriott, part of Marriott Bonvoy’s portfolio of over 30 hotel brands, have announced they will open their new properties at Camden Place this September.

Dubbed by the Marriott as a ‘dual-brand development’, the properties are designed to cater to the diverse needs of today’s travellers.

A Marriott spokesperson said: “Moxy Hotels, renowned for its playful hotel experience for fun hunters, will bring its signature stylish, high-energy atmosphere, featuring 153 chic guestrooms with smart technology, communal spaces with a vibrant social vibe, and 24/7 food and beverage options.”

Upon arrival, guests will be greeted with a complimentary cocktail at Bar Moxy which doubles as the check-in counter.

After exploring the destination, they can unwind with games, music, and craft cocktails in the lobby designed as a dynamic social hub.

Meanwhile Residence Inn will offer business travellers, families and anyone who seeks a home away from home in Cork city with 53 spacious suites, each with fully equipped kitchens and separate living, working and sleeping zones.

Guests can enjoy a complimentary breakfast and take advantage of the grocery delivery service and access to a state-of-the-art fitness centre to make the most of their time and enhance their travel experience.

The spokesperson added: “Both Moxy Hotel and Residence Inn are committed to sustainable practices, integrating eco-friendly initiatives such as energy-efficient lighting, water-saving fixtures, and locally sourced materials.

“The hotels also participate in Marriott’s Serve 360 programme, dedicated to making a positive and sustainable impact in the communities they serve.”

The spokesperson concluded: This ‘dual-brand’ development marks an exciting addition to Cork’s vibrant hospitality landscape, offering travellers an array of modern amenities, stylish accommodations, and unique experiences.
