Moving a hotel in Dublin is a bit like solving a giant, three-dimensional puzzle while blindfolded, underwater, and with a ticking clock. The stakes?
Guests who expect nothing less than five-star service, an operational timeline tighter than a drum, and—oh yes—a building full of furniture, equipment, and decor worth more than most small nations.
The task is monumental, but for Expert Removals, it’s just another day on the job.
Why is Moving a Hotel So Emotional?
Imagine this: you’re a hotel manager. You’ve got an opening day circled on the calendar in red ink, and you’re staring down a deadline that looks like a charging bull.
You’ve been planning this move for months. You’ve coordinated with designers, contractors, and vendors. You’re losing sleep, and your to-do list is growing by the minute.
Now, you have to trust a moving company to come in and execute flawlessly. If that doesn’t come with emotional baggage, I don’t know what does!
When hotels decide to relocate or renovate, there’s more than just furniture and fixtures at stake—there’s the heart and soul of the business.
Every piece of furniture, every light fixture, every piece of artwork tells part of the story of that hotel. But here’s the rub: the guests? They don’t care.
They expect to walk in and see everything exactly where it should be, flawless and perfect. The stress of getting it right is enormous, but Expert Removals knows how to take that stress off your shoulders.
Can You Really Move a Hotel Without Disrupting Business?
Short answer? Yes. Long answer? Absolutely, with meticulous planning, a crack team of professionals, and a solid strategy for execution.
Here’s where most moving companies drop the ball—they assume moving a hotel in Dublin is like moving any other business. But trust me, hotels are a different breed altogether.
Hotels operate on tight timelines. Often, the move happens while the hotel is still functioning—guests checking in and out, staff bustling around. And let’s not forget about the aesthetics.
A misplaced scratch on a marble countertop or a wrinkle in a luxury curtain could cost more than just money—it could cost reputation. Expert Removals understands the emotional weight of these tiny details.
Our process is fine-tuned to ensure that every lamp, every bed, and every chandelier gets moved with surgical precision.
How Do We Ensure Your Hotel Move Goes Smoothly?
Step 1: Plan, Plan, and Plan Again
The cornerstone of any successful move, especially one as complex as a hotel move, is planning. We start by creating a comprehensive moving blueprint that maps out every single element—furniture, fixtures, art, kitchen equipment, and even those luxury bathrobes your guests adore.
Our experts work closely with hotel management, understanding every nook and cranny of your operation.
Step 2: Execute Like Clockwork
When moving day arrives, our team moves with military-like precision. And while we’ve never actually moved a hotel blindfolded (no matter how fun that sounds), we have handled moves so smoothly that management barely noticed it was happening.
Every piece of furniture is labeled, cataloged, and securely moved to its new location. Disruption to your hotel’s daily operations? Minimal.
Step 3: Reassemble with Care
At Expert Removals, we don’t just dump furniture in the lobby and call it a day. Our team meticulously places each item exactly where it belongs, paying attention to detail that would impress even the most discerning hotel manager.
We understand that your reputation is on the line, and we treat it with the respect it deserves.

Real-World Example: Marker Hotel, Dublin
The Marker Hotel, one of Dublin’s luxury boutique hotels, recently entrusted Expert Removals with their delicate and high-stakes move. With over 188 rooms over 6 floors getting renovated and a restaurant, this move was not for the faint-hearted.
How did we manage it? By assigning a dedicated team for each department. Our art handlers carefully packed and moved each piece of art like it was the Mona Lisa.
Meanwhile, our furniture specialists dismantled and assembled, beds, side lockers, hotel desks and chairs, wardrobes and curtain rails.
The result? The Marker Hotel was fully operational as works was on-going with zero guest complaints and absolutely no downtime.
What About the Financial Side? Is a Hotel Move Expensive?
Ah, the million-euro question. You’re probably wondering if hiring an expert moving company is going to cost you an arm and a leg. The truth? Moving a hotel can be expensive, but not moving it right is even more costly.
What’s the price of a single bad guest review, a delay in opening, or lost reservations because your lobby is still being reassembled?
Our pricing model is transparent. We provide detailed quotes, breaking down every cost so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
More importantly, you get peace of mind knowing that you’re working with professionals who will get it right the first time.
