An important message for our Guests

COVID-19

Dear Guest,

At The Morgan Hotel, we have implemented the Government recommendations in how to deal with Covid-19. We have also gone a few steps further, to make you feel comfortable, relaxed and safe.

Fáilte Ireland Covid-19 Safety Charter
We have been awarded the Fáilte Ireland Covid-19 Safety Charter. The Safety Charter demonstrates that we are operating in line with current Government public health advice and with safety and cleaning protocols in place. All of our team have completed hygiene and safety control training and we are subject to being spot checked and inspected at any time.

We also want to reassure you that we are closely following the guidance and procedures of the World Health Organisation (WHO), Irish Hotels Federation (IHF) and the Irish Health Service Executive (HSE) regarding Coronavirus, to support the health, safety and wellbeing of our Customers, Staff and Community.

We take standards for hygiene and cleanliness very seriously and are proactively implementing additional hygiene procedures and precautions to ensure that the highest possible standards are upheld throughout every area and service which the Hotel provides, for our guests as well as our own team. This includes hand sanitisers in all areas, deep cleaning of all space during and after departure, and the reduction of seating in social areas, for all refreshment and meal periods.

We are supporting our Hotel Team, and their own health, safety and knowledge, as these are essential to an effective cleaning program.
