The new building (with a total floor area of 4,498,9 sq.m) will contain 80 bedrooms in total, parking for 8 cars plus services for the hotel at basement level, a reception area, hotel restaurant, common area and a commercial unit of 152.52 sq.m, bicycle parking and waste collection point all at ground floor level, 22 bedrooms, at first, second and third floor level, 7 bedrooms and a roof top cafe and landscaped roof terrace accessible to hotel guests at fourth floor level and 7 further bedrooms at fifth floor level. There will be a semi private amenity walk alongside the river Camac and ESB substation at ground floor level. The proposed development will contain SuDS measures including green roof, permeable paving and attenuation tank, food compensation storage and flood defences at basement level and all other ancillary works and plant to service the hotel

Zoning

Zone Z11 - DEV PLAN 2022-2028

G3 — High amenity

Protected high-amenity landscape. Development is resisted to preserve the character of the area.

G5 — Open space and amenity

Land zoned to stay open — parks, playing fields, amenity corridors. Built development is very hard to justify, which also means the view is protected.

M1 — Metro / rail economic corridor

A high-density mixed-use employment corridor tied to a rail or metro line. Expect the tallest buildings in the area here.
