Shelbourne Hotel to seek access to books

THE owners of the Shelbourne Hotel have been given permission by the High Court to seek an order compelling the company managing the landmark Dublin city centre hotel to allow them access to the hotel’s books and records.

Yesterday, at the High Court, Mr Justice Roderick Murphy gave the Shelbourne Hotel Holding Limited permission to seek an injunction ordering that Toirram Hotel Operation Co Ltd, which is part of the Marriott Group who own and operate hotels all over the world, give them access to the business’s books, records and staff.

Mr Justice Murphy made the matter returnable to a date early next week.
