Belfast construction and fit-out company, Gilbert-Ash has been appointed as the principal contractor on one of the most high-profile hotel developments in Ireland.
Whitbread PLC, the owner of the Premier Inn chain, has started the construction at Clerys Quarter which is an important part of the regeneration of one of Dublin’s most iconic department stores.
The 229-bedroom hotel will be in the heart of the city at Earl Place, just off O’Connell Street, and will form part of a mixed-use development of Clerys Quarter, a new city centre destination that will regenerate Dublin’s landmark street.
Gilbert-Ash’s scope of works at the former warehouse site include the construction of an eight-storey hotel plus basement and roof, with restaurant and reception on the ground floor.
