    Where did you hear this? I'm a "member" of their gym and I haven't heard anything from them in at least 9 months! Website still says they're closed until further notice.

    So was the manager of the Kingsley sitting beside Neil Prenderville on the plane and denied seeing anything - although how you can miss a guy trying to get a girl on the other side of him to t055 him off I don't know. And why didn't he say something like any decent human being would???

    I think it's meant to be reopening in December or January

    According to the Irish Examiner last week it's still up for sale. €6m if you want to buy a slightly damp hotel - one previous owner.

    That's a very big price-tag for a place that is completely wrecked and unlikely to ever get flood insurance again.

    Pity, I liked the kingsley.

    Well the apartments there are functioning quite fine and generating an income it seems so there must be scope for some function. It's still a rather appealing location - despite the calamity that it was struck with particularly as they Crow's Nest site has finally gone up for sale too. As for insurance, they may get cover from a specialist firm but the premiums would be rather large.

    The hotel should never been built in the first place.

    Nice to hear it's opening again, hopefully won't be affected by flooding again in the next few years....
