PICS: First pictures of a new hotel to open on an iconic site in Dublin

It looks pretty damn nice.

A €25 million redevelopment of the iconic Ormond Hotel is expected to be finished in the early months of 2020. The hotel is located on Ormond Quay in Dublin. The site where the hotel is now being developed has stood derelict since its closure in 2006. The images of the new hotel look lovely. Have a look for yourself. Here's the courtyard. Here's the lobby. And here's the restaurant. The hotel itself was featured in James Joyce's Ulysses and has remained somewhat of an iconic location ever since. Between 200 and 250 people will be employed in construction, and 90 staff on site when it's operational.
