Forty jobs under threat at Co Kildare hotel

Forty jobs are under threat following a decision by a Co Kildare hotel to close its doors for the foreseeable future.

Setanta House Hotel in Celbridge is blaming the decision on the economic downturn and other financial pressures.

A decision has yet to be made on the jobs of the 40 staff employed at the facility.

Deposits for bookings will be refunded.
