Injunction granted in hotel rent dispute

An injunction preventing the new landlord of a Dublin city centre hotel from taking possession of the premises in a dispute over rent has been granted by the High Court.

JJ Red Holdings Ltd obtained the interim order against Henciti Ltd, landlord of the Dame St premises which has operated as the 30-bedroom Dublin Citi Hotel since 2007.

Henciti is seeking just over €1m which it says is owed in rent arrears.
