Listing history

Revenue's renewed-liquor-licence register lists licence ref 1020862 as a Publican's Licence (Ordinary) Hotel - BF - 1902 Act (Public Bar) for NYX HOTEL DUBLIN PORTOBELLO at "SITUATE AT FORMER HARBOUR HOUSE AND DML HOUSE, PORTOBELLO HARBOUR" in Dublin City, with FATTAL LEONARDO OPERATION (IRELAND) LIMITED as the licensee.[1]

In 2019, The Irish Times reported that An Bord Pleanála granted permission for a new €40m hotel development in Portobello, including a 178-bedroom six-storey hotel by MKN Property Group and Tifco Ltd, after locals appealed Dublin City Council's grant of permission.[2]

In December 2023, the Irish Independent described NYX Hotel Dublin as a new 175-bed hotel in Portobello, owned and operated by Leonardo Hotels, overlooking the Grand Canal and plaza at Portobello Harbour, and said it was the result of a €31m investment.[3]

Stories and local colour

Gossip, odd details and pub atmosphere

story gossip

What people were talking about

Boards.ie gives Nyx Hotel Dublin Portobello 13 readable forum-memory signals around story-shaped forum talk, rumours, local claims, and fragments that could become fuller pub stories, older recollections, changed routines, remembered visits, and traces of how the pub lived in people's routes, recommendations, atmosphere, room feel, and how people described the place, fragments that look like starting points for fuller memories or local stories and regulars, staff-memory, room characters, crowds, and the social texture around the pub. This is not verified pub history; it is a mapped trail of what people said online and where PubHub can go next for local colour.

This is labelled forum memory: useful gossip, local claims and colour from source-linked public discussion, not PubHub treating the claims as settled fact.
