Many of our guests return to stay time and again, but not often with such a gap as Peter & Dot Hall! They stayed at Mount Herbert Hotel recently for a second time, after their first visit in 1969, and very kindly gave us a copy of their original bill (above). It came to a grand total of £4, 13 shillings and 6 pence!
Their first visit to Dublin was part of a coastal tour of Ireland, and Peter, who is an artist, has made regular trips with Dot over the years to bring his work to the Western Light Gallery on Achill. Peter and Dot's second stay with us came about due to a change in how they usually travel to Achill, requiring an overnight stay in Dublin. Dot, remembering their first stay at Mount Herbert Hotel, suggested they come back. Chatting together about their memories of their first stay with us, one thing that clearly stood out for them both was seeing rabbits on our lawn on the morning of their second day here!
We are delighted that Peter and Dot remembered us and came to stay a second time, and hope to welcome them back again soon!
