A protest took place in Dublin this weekend following public outrage over plans to develop hotels at two of the capital's iconic landmarks – Merchant's Arch in Temple Bar and the Cobblestone pub in Smithfield. 4,500 new hotel rooms are expected to come on stream in Dublin over the coming years. But do we need them all and at what cost to creativity? Host: Fionnán Sheahan Guests: Eoghan Ó Ceannabháin, Musician and Activist, Green Party Councillor Claire Byrne and Irish Independent Travel Editor Pol Ó Conghaile.
