“The team here have worked very hard in completing the steps so far and are already working on the next phase. It is an honour for us to be part of this fantastic initiative and would encourage more businesses to get involved,” said Jennifer.
The hotel has already completed steps on its journey to becoming an autism-friendly hotel. Over 40 staff members including front line staff, managers & supervisors have completed a 40-minute online training course. A Social Story has been developed to help guests prepare for a visit to the hotel and they created a sensory-specific activity for guests which is the availability of a relaxation sensory box.
They also dedicate a specific Autism friendly dining time every Tuesday in the Park Restaurant, between 3 and 5pm. Bookings for this are necessary, please call us + 353 66 7199100.
