D-Day for 200 staff at Shelbourne Hotel
Fears that the hotel founded in 1824 will be shut to customers for a full 12 months have circulated for some time. While staff fear the worst, it has also been suggested that an entire closure will be avoided. Either way, staff will know their fate tomorrow when they are briefed about the plans for the hotel which was bought before Christmas by the team that have taken over the supermarket chain, Superquinn.
Rumours that a meeting was due to be held last week proved unfounded, but staff have been requested by the new management to attend a meeting tomorrow morning.
