Hard Rock International has revealed plans to open the Hard Rock Hotel Dublin, the brand's first hotel in Ireland, in 2020.
The company is working in partnership with Irish hospitality group Tifco, one of Ireland's largest hotel companies.
The 120-room property will be located on Lord Edward Street on the edge of the city's bustling Temple Bar district and will comprise two structures: an existing 20th-century property, originally known as the Exchange Building and currently the site of the Parliament Hotel, and the adjacent Fashion House Building.
The Fashion House will be completely rebuilt and transformed into the new hotel entrance and lobby, and a new glassed-in bridge will connect guests to the refurbished Parliament building, whose red brick 1912 facade is being restored.
The hotel also will feature an all-day dining restaurant; a full-service wellness center with a Body Rock workout facility and a Rock Spa; free loaner Fender guitars, records and turntables; and music memorabilia displays throughout the property.
