21 staff at Dublin city-centre hotel to be made redundant, court hears
Summary
In a High Court hearing on 28 April 2016, Mr Justice Paul Gilligan heard that a dispute between Lynams Hotel's operator, Theresa Andreucetti, and a receiver appointed by NAMA over the hotel's landlords had been settled. Andreucetti, who has run the hotel since 2008 under a lease, had obtained a temporary injunction to retain possession after the receiver's agents entered the premises, claiming she owed €528,000 in rent arrears. She denied the arrears and counter‑claimed that the landlords should pay for roof repairs and damages caused by water‑damaged bedrooms. The parties agreed that the hotel would be handed over to the receiver on 1 August, with Andreucetti continuing to operate it for three months. She will give vacant possession at midnight on that date, pay the receiver rent, rates and arrears, and the 21 staff will be made redundant. The receiver intends to sell the property quickly, and the case will be revisited in July.
