The site of the Vicar Street Hotel in the Liberties has gone on the market.
The Dublin 8 plot is located beside the well known Vicar Street music venue and has a guide price of in excess of €12 million.
Despite local opposition, planning permission was granted for an eight-storey, 185 bed hotel on the site in 2019. The plans include a rooftop bar and restaurant with outdoor terrace.
CBRE says the site presents prospective purchasers with an opportunity to work with the music venue. It says the hotel will host a VIP Club for artists playing at the venue and use of the facility for pre and post gig parties.
Alexandra Sheeran, Senior Analyst, CBRE, commented:
“The Vicar Street Hotel site is an exclusive opportunity for parties to develop a boutique / lifestyle hotel in one of Dublin’s most vibrant and developing areas. There is strong demand for Dublin city centre hotel development opportunities that have been offered for sale recently and we continue to see strong pent-up demand from international parties looking to invest in Dublin”.
