Irish influencer Chloe Koyce has finally spoken out after the man accused of following her to her hotel room earlier this year appeared in court this week.
The incident, which took place in Dublin in March 2025, left the Limerick native shaken but determined to raise awareness about women’s safety and stalking harassment.
Details of Chloe Koyce’s hotel room ordeal
In March, Chloe Koyce shared a chilling account on social media of how she was followed to her hotel room by a stranger after a night out in Dublin. After leaving a nearby bar around 2am, she noticed a man linger suspiciously close as she walked to her hotel.
As she entered the hotel, the stranger slipped in behind her, even entering the lift with her, where he removed his belt. He then followed her closely all the way to her hotel room door, where her mother was waiting.
Throughout the ordeal, Chloe recorded footage of the man holding his belt, expressing deep fear for her safety. When she reached the room, she asked the man if he was okay, and he eventually left via a stairwell. Chloe reported the incident to Gardaí immediately, only to be told by hotel staff that they had assumed the man was her boyfriend.
