An Bord Pleanala has given the green light to contentious plans for a 247 bedroom nine-storey CitizenM hotel at Bride Street, Dublin 8.

The appeals board has granted planning permission to Dublin St Patrick's Properties BV despite ten separate appeals lodged by third parties against the Dublin City Council decision to grant permission for the four star 'luxury hybrid' hotel.Some of those to appeal to An Bord Pleanala include Cllr Mannix Flynn , Amanda Scales and John Kelleher along with two separate entities representing the residents of Adelaide Court apartments.

The hotel will be CitizenM’s first foray into the Irish market and the Dutch owned luxury hotel chain already operates hotels in the likes of London, New York City, San Francisco and Los Angeles. The assessment by EY states that the scheme will provide 176 jobs when operational and support 367 jobs during the construction phase.

However, the assessment by EY states that none of the hotel’s 20 largest existing hotels are located in Dublin 8 and are concentrated in the Dublin 1, 2 and 4 postcodes. The board inspector in the case, A Considine who recommended that planning permission be granted noting that "the level of bed-spaces in Dublin City has been an issue for many years and that demand is consistently higher than beds available."
