A target date of September 24 — exactly one month ahead of the Guinness Cork Jazz Festival — has been set for the opening of Cork city’s newest hotel, the €40m Moxy and Residence Inn development on Camden Quay.

Both the 153-bedroom Moxy and the 53-bedroom Residence Inn are owned by the internationally recognised Marriott brand and Cork is the first dual-branded site in Ireland.
