Carlton Hotel Blanchardstown

What Carlton Hotel Blanchardstown does

Carlton Hotel Blanchardstown is an award-winning 4-star hotel located on Church Road in Tyrrelstown, Dublin 15, operated by Paximol Ltd as part of the Carlton Hotel Group. Founded in 2011, the property offers 155 rooms across multiple categories (Superior, Executive, Junior Suites, Superior Suites, Family, and Interconnecting), supported by 11 purpose-built meeting rooms headlined by the 450 SQM Greenwich Suite, which seats up to 310 theatre-style and is among Dublin's larger conference venues, and the Genesis Executive Boardroom with broadband video conferencing and Dolby surround sound. On-site dining is provided through the Sundial Restaurant (led by Head Chef Noel Healy), the Hourglass Bar, and afternoon tea service, with breakfast and dinner programmed on defined daily windows.

The hotel's product surface has expanded into wellness and lifestyle with the recently launched Ériu Thermal Retreat, an outdoor Irish-heritage-inspired sanctuary featuring a sauna, hot bath, and cold plunge for contrast therapy, monetized through the Ériu Relax & Restore package, alongside a newly renovated Fitness Suite equipped with BLK Box Fitness strength and cardio kit. It serves four principal customer segments — leisure and family travelers (primary), corporate and business clients (including those in nearby Blanchardstown, Ballycoolin, and Damastown Corporate Parks), wedding and event celebrations, and solo/sports-tourism guests attending Croke Park, Aviva Stadium, and Fairyhouse — generating revenue across accommodation, F&B, banqueting and conferences, weddings and events, wellness, and a portfolio of promotional packages (Early Booker up to 20%, Stay Longer & Save 25%, Semi-Flexible up to 15%, Sunday Reset, Little Adventurers).

The go-to-market motion is predominantly direct-to-consumer via the hotel's own website (with promo codes and best-rate guarantees), phone reservations, and email enquiry, supplemented by a Mailchimp newsletter funnel (offering 10% off first booking), active organic social on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and LinkedIn, blog content covering local attractions, and selective OTA listings including OpenTable for restaurant reservations. Cross-promotion is conducted within the Carlton Hotel Group (e.g., Carlton Hotel Dublin Airport). The business is privately held by Paximol Ltd with no public listing, venture, or private equity backing disclosed in the source data.
