Hotel Dispute Settled
A dispute over plans to develop a €25 million hotel in Dublin’s James Street has been resolved. The site lies on a stepped lane called Cromwell’s Quarters joining James Street to Bow Lane West.
Tathony Holdings, the owners of Tathony House, which is on the lane, first brought High Court proceedings in 2018 claiming a planned new hotel would interfere with its light. Those proceedings, which were against the previous owners, were settled.
The site was then sold to a company called Amhola James Street Ltd, which plans to develop an international hotel at a cost of €25 million. Amhola submitted a new planning application which was refused by Dublin City Council.
