Throughout the start of 2024, Crowne Plaza Dublin - Blanchardstown underwent and extensive refurbishment of our bedrooms. With expert help from Clarke & Whiteman, Architecture & Interior Designers, we transformed our rooms into a more modern & contemporary hotel.
Evoking authenticity and exceptional guest experiences are the focus of the project which involved the redesign of our 188 bedrooms. As the hotel is situated on the fringe of Dublin, in Blanchardstown, beside both the historic Phoenix Park and Tolka Valley Park. This location has inspired the design for the bedroom refurbishment knitting connections with the character to the hues of the urban green spaces and the adjacent Tolka river.
These spaces have inspired the natural palette of materials and tones which feature in the new rooms – leafy greens and soft corals are combined with dark stained woods and putty leather headboards against warm grey textures.
Applying the geometry of the building to room, we have used the gentle curve drawing the eye through the room to the light and view. This delineates the room functions - the herringbone patterned tile floor in wood tones where the main circulation is from the sleeping area around the bed where wool carpet is laid.
Asymmetry is introduced to the lights, headboard, nightstands, wardrobe and desk accenting the different feel to each area of the room and highlighting different zones and activities creating more atmosphere.
In place of artwork and wall dressing, we commissioned a wall mural to wrap around the bedroom that presents the prominent elements of the Phoenix Park in gentle yet graphic misty tones – the deer, monument, rolling landscape and mature trees. This subtle yet stunning mural projects and oasis of tranquility.
The Suites of the Crowne Plaza Blanchardstown feature extra layers of luxury, design and space. They are all finished to create a warm, relaxing and atmospheric room that meets the needs of the savvy traveller. Hand painted headboards in the master suite depict kingfishers on the Tolka set amongst reeds and grasses.
As you indulge in the recently refurbished rooms. Laying atop of a luxury king size bed, giving you the utmost comfort. You start to get ready for your evening event. Be it a Gala Dinner or Awards Night, networking in the Sanctuary bar after a larger conference in the Heather Suite or simply meeting up with friends at Blanchardstown Shopping Centre.

Lighting has been sourced from Irish Company Mullan Lighting based in Monaghan whilst the pure wool throws are from McNutts of Donegal. Each room welcomes the natural daylight, through floor to ceiling window panes, with draw back curtains.
