Oakmount appoints Pure Fitout for The Mayson
Oakmount has appointed independent fit-out specialist, Pure Fitout, for a new 97-bedroom hotel in Dublin’s Business District. After the successful delivery of sister hotel, The Devlin in late 2018, the firm has been enlisted to complete the high-spec interior of The Mayson hotel, including a rooftop terrace restaurant, a conference room and a boutique gym.
For its largest project to date, Pure Fitout will be working closely with designer O’Donnell O’Neill to realise the client’s vision of the seven-storey hotel, set to be one of the most modern and architecturally striking hotels in the Irish capital.
Briefed to bring new life to one of the city’s historic buildings, the company will be restoring the old pub, set to be named The Bottle Boy, as well as converting the second storey into eight elegant suites with bathroom facilities; while the two floors of the original main building will feature a bright open-plan lobby, restaurant and bar area, which will lead out to a series of terraces. The property has also been excavated to facilitate two basement levels, which accommodate a large, modern conference centre and a boutique gym.
“This is by far our largest project to date, which is extremely exciting for the team, and our second exclusive hotel project in just two years. We’ll have a workforce of over 300 local Irish tradesmen working on the project, committed to delivering a high-quality finish in the tight timeframe set,” says Ronan Higham, founder and Managing Director of Pure Fitout. “Our leading in-house capabilities for manufacturing bespoke features and fittings enables us to guarantee delivery of projects within short timeframes and to the high level of craftsmanship we’ve become well known for.
“A unique element of the project is the preservation of certain aspects of the property, including the old Valence & McGrath pub, which will require the restoration of the shopfront, and the ground and first floor of the main property, which was formerly a Timber warehouse dating back to 1870.”
