Important Information

The older part of the Ashling Hotel on Parkgate Street will be undergoing building works involving a major transformation and will result in 130 new deluxe rooms, a stylish new restaurant and bar, along with a fabulous new façade.

Works will commence on Monday 14 January 2008 and take approximately 12 months. During the construction phase, it will be “business as usual” albeit on a smaller scale (70 bedrooms) and with some necessary changes to allow the works to take place.

From Monday 14 January 2008, the hotel entrance will be accessed from Montpelier Hill at the rear of Parkgate Street (don’t worry, it will be well sign posted!) We will also be operating Cobblestones Bistro and our Guinness Lounge bar from here, so no need for anyone to go hungry or thirsty! Our multi-storey car park (free to residents) will be in operation as usual along with several meeting rooms.

During the period of construction, we will be doing everything to minimise any possible disturbance or disruption to your stay. If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact us.
