N1989 Radisson Blu Dublin Airport

Another hotel bar to tick off the list, this time in the recently internally modernised Radisson at the airport. Built in 1998 as a Great Southern Hotel (the brand then being owned by Aer Rianta who operated the airport, it competes with the much older Maldron slightly closer to the terminal, as one of the two on-site hotels at the airport. 

This will likely change, however, as there are plans to build a new hotel beside Terminal 2 as well as another on the surface carpark of this Radisson. Also, unless Dalata have bought the Maldron without it being reported somewhere easy to find; their 10 year lease on the property (owned by the DAA since its bankruptcy when operating as a Clarion) expires in 2023 and it may be time to consider a replacement structure for the now 50 year old former Forte Posthouse premises.

The Radisson offers a very basic bar with a limited range of taps - many of which were off or having extremely slow keg replacements - and a subset of the still not huge menu from the hotel restaurant. Its still going to be fine for the normal customer of a hotel airport, though.
