DUBLIN, Ireland
DoubleTree by Hilton has announced the rebranding of one of Dublin's most iconic hotels, formerly The Burlington, to become DoubleTree by Hilton Dublin - Burlington Road. A phased program of investment is underway to renovate the hotel, expected to wrap by Spring 2014, instilling the property with all the hallmarks of the DoubleTree by Hilton brand.
The hotel offers about 22,000 square feet of banqueting, ballroom space and conference facilities for up to 1,400 delegates. The introduction of a dedicated floor comprising of 18 new conference suites and meeting rooms, each facilitating up to 100 delegates, underlines its credentials as a provider for meetings and events.
All 501 guestrooms are being upgraded with the addition of 42" flat screen TVs, with DoubleTree by Hilton amenities including an assortment of in-room coffee and tea, collection of CITRON Honey & Coriander Crabtree & Evelyn Bath Products and the Sweet Dreams by DoubleTree sleep experience.
The hotel's restaurant options have undergone a complete overhaul with the new Sussex restaurant forming an open, spacious dining area created for the service of the brand's Wake up DoubleTree Breakfast. Executive chef, Tony O'Donnell, is devising a new culinary vision that will be modern, with a strong emphasis on the use of local produce.
Future conversion plans for the Mespil Bar will see it transformed into an executive lounge and the famous Bellini's Bar will be renamed the B Bar, in homage to the hotel's history.
