The Davenport Hotel

What The Davenport Hotel does

The Davenport Hotel is a 4-star luxury boutique hotel located at 8-10 Merrion Street Lower, Dublin 2, operating from a building dating to the early 17th century in Dublin's Georgian core. The property offers 115 rooms and suites and is part of the O'Callaghan Collection, a five-hotel portfolio. Revenue is generated across multiple streams: guest accommodation, food and beverage outlets (1863 Lounge and Lady Jane), spa services (Bask Thermal Spa), parking, and gift voucher sales.

The hotel also operates as a meetings, incentives, conferences, and exhibitions (MICE) venue, with three meeting spaces accommodating up to 260 delegates. In-room technology includes 1Gb WiFi, 49-inch Smart TVs with Chromecast, and King Koil bedding. The property holds Green Key environmental certification. Distribution is multi-channel, combining direct booking (via the O'Callaghan Collection site and a P3 Hotels-powered booking engine), third-party OTAs (notably Booking.com), and dedicated corporate and MICE sales. Customer mix is diversified across leisure transient, corporate transient, and group/events segments, with no disclosed anchor accounts. Pricing is structured around room rates plus bundled packages (Bed & Bask, Sunday Switch Off, Romance, Stay Longer) and supported by an O'Callaghan Collection Rewards loyalty program.
