Appeals against Paddy McKillen Jr’s boutique hotel plans in Dublin

Paddy McKillen Jr’s plans for a boutique hotel, complete with a roof-top restaurant, in the Dublin suburb of Ranelagh have been thrown into question.

Seven separate appeals have been lodged with An Bord Pleanála against Dublin City Council’s decision to give the five-floor, 41-bedroom hotel scheme the go-ahead.

The plan — proposed for 117-119 Ranelagh — is to also contain a 50-seat arthouse cinema in its basement.
