The DNA: Located in the heart of Dublin Docklands, next to the 3Arena on the River Liffey, The Mayson is a boutique-style property. One of Dublin’s most modern and architecturally striking hotels it is set in two historic buildings on North Wall Quay (one a public house from 1860 and and one warehouse from 1870). In a dilapidated condition and not been used in over two decades, their existing, inherent characters. original features and fixtures such as the fireplaces have been retained and a new modern annex was added. The Mayson’s boho chic rooms come with rainfall power showers, premium Irish toiletries, Netflix enabled Samsung Smarts TVs, Marshall amps for tunes, Smeg fridges, Dyson hair dryers and munchie trays. The hotel offers several destination bars and restaurants (one rooftop with views of the harbour), a barber, a fitness centre, and an ample outdoor courtyard with plunge pool. A ‘living’ wall of plants grows up through an internal courtyard, adding to the unconventional off-beat ethos.
