Croke Park

The Arlington Hotel has a very strong connection with sports, especially when it comes to the most popular sports in Ireland: Hurling and Gaelic Football. 

And there’s no better place to enjoy it than the home of the GAA, the iconic Croke Park!

The Arlington Hotel O’Connel Bridge is the perfect option for anyone attending a match or concert at the Croke Park as we are located within less than 15 minutes walk from there. 

For well over a century, the Jones Road ground has been headquarters of the GAA. Every September, the Association’s two annual marquee events – the GAA All-Ireland Football and Hurling Championship Finals – attract a capacity 82,300 fans, to witness the pinnacle of Gaelic games action – in this world-renowned cathedral of sport. 

As the home of Ireland’s largest sporting and cultural organisation, Croke Park has played host to iconic moments in Irish sport & history and to major cultural and international events.

The Croke Park Stadium Tour is the perfect way to truly immerse yourself in Irish culture. Everything and everyone is brimming with pride, including the Tour Guides who’ll have you hanging on every word.
