The Ballsbridge Hotel on the former Jurys Hotel site in Dublin 4 will stay open until at least the end of October 2018 following an extension of its lease with hotel group Dalata. The hotel has the option, at the the discretion of the company due to build apartments on the site, to extend further until the end of March 2019. The extension of the lease, which was due to end in mid-2018, comes despite the development of luxury apartments on the site being on schedule. The news comes after Chartered Land, the company behind the Lansdowne Place development, said pre-sales had passed the €100 million mark. When completed by the end of 2019, the development will have 217 apartments, including 24 penthouses.
