"Dubai has AT.MOSPHERE on the 122nd floor of the Burj Khalifa, London has Ting on level 35 of The Shard, New York has One Dine on the 101st floor of Manhattan's One World Observatory and, while we're not exactly clipping the clouds just yet, Dublin now has its tallest restaurant - Díon on the 10th floor of the Sam Stephenson designed former Central Bank on Dame Street."
"It's the dream of Alan Clancy, whose House hotels in Dublin and Limerick have just gone into receivership - you have to hand it to the man, who has worked since he was 15, that he has brought colour and joy with his various establishments not just to Dublin but around the country. Costing up to an estimated €10m, Díon has been three years in the making,"
Díon occupies the 10th floor of the Sam Stephenson designed former Central Bank on Dame Street, perched roughly 150 feet above the city. The venue positions itself as Dublin's tallest restaurant, offering dramatic panoramic views across the city. The project has been in development for three years with an estimated cost of up to €10m. Alan Clancy conceived the project; his House hotels in Dublin and Limerick recently entered receivership. Investor Barry McGrath and general manager Jamie Belton are involved, while Alan Clancy now serves as a consultant.
