The Glashaus did actually close at the same time and along with the Tallaght Cross Hotel which is to reopen next year, was used for short-term accommodation for a while. But it was bought by the Comer development group and reopened as a hotel in 2014. There are now plans in to add another 24 bedrooms to the hotel.
For a relatively small hotel there is a decent sized bar, that seems to mostly work off food trade. I had lunch here, which was more than acceptable - more traditional than what I had in the nearby N2581 The Brass Fox a few weeks prior, but nothing wrong with that. My pint glass survived the closure and reopening, as it happens; and a complete rebranding of Smithwicks by Diageo in the interim.
