BOOTERSTOWN AVENUE 30 JANUARY 2023

My mother will be 103 years old in May 2023 but for various reasons we have had cancel any celebrations planned for 2020, 2021 and 2022. To compensate we had planned a large event this year but once again it had to be cancelled so my sister and myself decided to organise a meal at Gleesons on Booterstown Avenue but life got a bit confused as the staff thought that it was a birthday party. However, we had a wonderful time and my mother really enjoyed herself.

“Located in the leafy suburb of Booterstown, Co Dublin, Gleesons of Booterstown is an award-winning family run boutique hotel, restaurant and bar. Home to 16 luxurious en suites, which compliment the multi award-winning Bar, Pub, Restaurant, deli and off license.”

THE LATEST AND LARGEST STAYCITY APARTHOTEL IN DUBLIN

LITTLE MARY STREET

As the street is very narrow it is difficult to photograph this new building. The laneway at the side of the building is Anglesea Row and to the best of my knowledge a former mill was located was located here and it has been completely rebuilt to provide modern office space.

Two or three years ago the Irish Times reported that there about 100 new hotels or similar accommodation developments under construction or in the planning process and that there were already more than 250 hotels in Dublin.

Staycity was established in Dublin in 2004 and to the best of my knowledge the largest and most recent is located on the site of a Keelings owned fresh fruit and veg distribution depot on Little Mary Street. Back when planning permission was applied for However, the potential for human remains on the site had placed a question mark over the development. A City Council archaeologist report found that given that the site is located near to a medieval abbey and that human remains were found nearby, “I consider that it to have high potential for in situ structural remains of medieval date and for burials”.

An apartment hotel or aparthotel (also residential hotel, or extended-stay hotel) is a serviced apartment complex that uses a hotel-style booking system. It is similar to renting an apartment, but with no fixed contracts and occupants can “check out” whenever they wish, subject to the applicable minimum length of stay imposed by the company.

An apartment hotel complex usually offers a complete fully fitted apartment. These complexes are usually custom built, and similar to a hotel complex containing a varied amount of apartments. The length of stay in these apartment hotels is varied with anywhere from a few days to months or even years. The people who stay in apartment hotels use them as long-term accommodation; therefore, the hotels are often fitted with most things the average home would require.
