An Coimisiún Pleanála issued a decision to grant planning permission for a new 100-bedroom hotel on Pleasants Street, Dublin. The scheme will replace the existing building on the site and deliver a new city centre hospitality development in a prime city centre location near Iveagh Gardens, placing it close to many of Dublin’s main business and visitor areas.
3D Design Bureau supported Red Rock Developments by producing architectural CGIs, verified view montages and presentation photomontages, which offered an accurate view of how the scheme would integrate within its urban context.
Together, these materials supported a more robust submission and gave An Coimisiún Pleanála the confidence to grant approval following a third-party appeal.
The development comprises a six-storey hotel over basement, with a setback at the fifth floor level, and a proposed gross floor area of c. 3,916 sq m. The permission was granted with amendments, including updates to the ground floor height, roof plant arrangement and cycle parking layout.
At street level, the plans include a reception area with pedestrian access from Pleasants Street, alongside an ancillary café, bar and restaurant use and associated back of house functions. In line with the approval, these amenities facilities will have restricted opening hours, no outdoor seating and operation in accordance with the submitted management plan.

Following an appeal, An Coimisiún Pleanála has granted planning permission, with amendments, for a large-scale residential development at the existing Balally Shopping Centre, Blackthorn Drive, Sandyford, Dublin 16. The approved scheme will deliver 71 apartments, ranging from studio to three-bedroom homes.
Hotel projects need to be understood, discussed and promoted long before they are built. In that sense, they are not so different to other types of development. What tends to vary is what people need to see early on. For planning and stakeholder engagement, for example, the priority is accuracy and context, clear representation of massing, materials and how the proposal sits within its surrounding environment.
Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council is progressing plans to bring No. 9 George’s Place and the former Wash House on Kelly’s Avenue back into use through a sustainable programme of renovation and adaptive reuse.
The two vacant protected structures, located at the corner of George’s Place and Kelly’s Avenue in Dún Laoghaire, will be transformed into a Centre for Creative Lifelong Learning, alongside public realm improvements to the courtyard and surrounding streetscape.
