GERARD LOUGHRAN
Director
Gerard has been working in the hotel for as long as he can remember, from pulling pints to making beds, he's done it all! He became a fully-fledged member of the team in 2006 and now manages the day to day operations of the hotel.
When Gerard's not working he can be found on the tee box or dribbling on the football pitch! A lover of sport when it comes to cheering from the side lines, nothing is off limits.

When she does take a day or two off (rarely!), Bae loves to visit her family and new grandchild in Australia and is still relishing in her win as the Irish Hotels Federation Dublin Branch Employee of the Year 2018.
