Big loss in my opinion! Too many good nightlife have closed in Dublin in the last years!

So they just agreed to go away basically. That’s a shame. Dublin’s really rather bland when it comes to nightclubs. There’ll be a very boring city full of quiet hotels. Ultimately it makes it less interesting as a place to live or visit.

Why did they agree to just shut it down after fighting to keep it open?

If the entire city just becomes hotels, what do we expect people to do when they stay in them?

Reminds me of the attempts to knock The Cobblestone a few years ago and replace it with yet another hotel.
The irony of this practice is if it continues, there won’t be much left for tourists & locals entertainment wise. With each new development, they take away a selling point that the city has to offer.
It seems the hotel industry won’t rest until every pub/restaurant/nightclub has a highrise hotel built in it’s place.

After all that fuss and public support the money won in the end.

I say this as a man in his late 30s who doesn’t go clubbing:
Seems like they were happy to take a cheque as it was worth more than the nightclub trade. Nightclubs are closing all over the place – is the demand there or is a lot of it people making noise that they want the clubs for when they want to visit them, a handful of times per year.

Sounds like they’ll be closing the restaurant at the end of the year? Or moving?
We did it Patrick, we got another venue for shit wedding singers to play Wagon Wheel and The Way I Am!

Reminds me of the Derry hotel that opened at a popular concert square/venue, then started vetoing against concerts being played in the area.

Hilarious after all the outrage, now you’ll have the same people who was taking up for them calling them sell outs 😂

Good learning experience for ye all here: never trust a ’small business‘, don’t go out protesting for them 👍

And another one’s bites the dust. It is a sad indication of licensing laws in Ireland that so that so many night clubs have shut down over the years. This is a country of old people and I don’t even like nightclubs.

Can DCC just make a hotel zone and place all new builds of hotels into that area?

They knew when they bought the property and were building the rooms that there was a longstanding late night venue below. Why didn’t they invest in professional sound proofing for those rooms?
Such a shame this is the outcome.

Once again this shows a pressing need for a directly-elected Mayor of Dublin, who represents the needs of Dubliners and not faceless corporations

Interests of a soulless English hotel chain? You mean interests of their guests?

Booo our nightlife scene is an absolute laughing stock compared to the rest of the world. No wonder there are so many pop up parties and raves happening.

This country is becoming a mere economic zone rather then culture filled country and the government want it this way

Ireland in 2040: „While staying at our premium deluxe boutique mega-hotel, you can visit the historic hotel districts of the city centre, and see where the hoteliers staged their famous Summer Rising of 2026 against the Yamamori Empire. Experience the great fairy fort of the Dublin airport Metro station, and if sport is your thing, take a trip to Croke Park and support the Staycity-sponsored Dublin football, an experience only available in person and on GAA+. Take a non-air conditioned coach tour of our excellent country manor hotels and gaze at the helicopters of the benevolent JP McManus Foundation, which supports the seasonal migration of the invasive Lesser Spotted American Stockbroker to our unspoiled fairways. Visit the areas affected by the great hotel famine, a genocide of hotel owners who had grown reliant on migration scheme subsidies. See the breathtaking scenery of the Wild Atlantic Way, where for just €35 you can see the great Moher car park, and €450 will ensure your very own fee for not cleaning the u-bend of your Airbnb apartment. You won’t miss the sea in our landlocked island when you swim in our fantastic hotel pools and spas.

People aren’t going to nightclubs and clubs aren’t making any money off drink cause anyone there is doing drugs. Simple as.

First time in there last night. Landed in randomly after getting back in from Calvin Harris. We had some craic in there dancing until 3. A real shame its being shut down. I can understand why there’s so much anger over it.
