Hoxton VS Yamamori: is Dublin too loud?
Published 2 months ago
Description
The Hoxton Hotel, a new hotel on Dublin’s Exchequer Street is seeking an injunction over music noise levels from an adjoining restaurant and late night music venue, Yamamori Izakaya. The hotel is alleging that noise has resulted in the closure of 31 of its 129 bedrooms and wants further acoustic protection installed by Yamamori. But, where does the onus lie when it comes to noise in city centre developments? And is noise just something that has to be accepted in a city centre?
Ray O’Donoghue is Dublin City’s Night Time Economy Advisor and Andrea Horan is the Owner of Tropical Popical nail salon. They join Ciara to discuss.
