Presentations, product launches, corporate dinners and drinks receptions for up to 100 guests can be organized at The Mont, a hotel on the corner of Merrion Square at 1-4 Merrion Street Lower, Dublin 2. Its restaurant, Speranza, takes 45 theater-style, 70 for a seated dinner or 100 for a reception, and the hotel bar, the Sin Bin, has semi-private areas for smaller groups.
Seminars and company events
The hotel's event offer is built around Speranza. For a presentation or a launch, the room seats up to 45 theater-style while keeping space for a reception around the seating. For a company dinner, it seats up to 70, and for a standing drinks evening with food it holds up to 100. That range covers a press launch, a team awards evening or a client dinner after a day of meetings in the city. The Sin Bin takes groups of every size and offers semi-private corners for smaller gatherings, such as a team drink or a leaving party. The Winter Garden next to it is a planted, sheltered space that stays usable in cold weather. The hotel lists corporate gatherings, product launches and smaller celebrations among the events it hosts, and the events team takes requests by phone or through the contact form.
