Additional Conrad Dublin Statements
Conrad Dublin continued, "Born in the USA, Moore grew up in the industry having spent most of his childhood in hotels across the states and Middle East prior to returning to his Foxford, Co. Mayo roots. Andrew is a second-generation hotelier, so hospitality runs through his veins.
"Andrew is delighted to be back at Conrad Dublin and has always had a grá for both the property and its location. With significant investment plans, Andrew is eager to make his mark at the hotel, enhancing the luxury experience for guests, supporting the talented hotel team and ensuring the hotel offers a uniquely luxurious Dublin city destination."
Conrad Dublin added, "With any new job, Andrew's work life is hectic, but he manages to balance it albeit with a toddler to entertain. A cycling enthusiast, Andrew managed to cycle the length of Korea before departing (a mere 630km in three days!), and when things settle down workwise, he’d like to find some spare time to indulge his passion for travel."
Moore Statement
Moore stated, "Our new owners have committed to a multimillion reinvestment programme and Conrad Dublin is set to undergo a major transformation and expansion, and I cannot wait to oversee this project. It’s great to be back in Dublin and I'm very excited for our future plans and developments."
