New ‘Rock and Room’ hotel to be built in the Docklands
June 25, 2018
Irish entrepreneur Harry Crosbie, the man behind several iconic buildings in the Docklands, is set to build a new rock ‘n’ roll hotel.
Crosbie is spearheading a major development at his Vicar Street site with a new hotel that involves a ‘Rock and Room’ concept.
It will give clients a package that includes tickets to shows at Vicar Street with a hotel room and meal.
“With ‘Rock and Room’, you can book a room in a 4-star hotel, which will have direct access to your seat at the venue. There will be a membership club on the top floor with a 7,000 sq. ft. bar looking out over the city with the same views as the Guinness Storehouse,” Harry told the Sunday World.
The Vicar Street venue is also to get a makeover, with the main stage being moved to introduce an extra 500 seats.
Crosbie was part of the three man team who delivered the National Convention Centre and Spencer Dock Development.
