Mercy International Association Limited

Mercy International Centre, also known as Catherine’s House, is a historic meeting and conference venue in central Dublin. Set in the original House of Mercy founded by Catherine McAuley, the centre combines a distinctive heritage setting with practical facilities for organisers planning professional, educational, community and faith-based gatherings.

The venue offers several bookable spaces for conferences, seminars, training programmes, workshops, meetings and special gatherings. Larger rooms provide flexible layouts for group sessions, while the Doyle Room is suited to meetings requiring presentation and hybrid meeting technology. The Library offers a more intimate boardroom-style setting for smaller discussions, planning sessions and leadership meetings. The Dining Room can support catering linked to room hire and provides a comfortable setting for refreshments, meals and informal conversation.

Organisers can request customised room layouts, presentation technology, digital projection and high-speed business Wi-Fi. The centre is wheelchair accessible and has a lift, making it suitable for a broad range of delegates. Outdoor areas, including a garden and patio, may also be available as part of an event arrangement. Catering can be organised on request, with non-profit discounts available for eligible groups.

The venue is particularly well suited to organisations looking for a peaceful and characterful location for conferences, workshops, retreats, community events and reflective programmes. Its Dublin 2 location is convenient for public transport and city-centre access. Enquiries are handled directly by the centre, allowing organisers to discuss dates, preferred rooms, group size, catering and technical requirements before confirming a booking.
