    Eh hardly anyone would have seen it, it's a hotels page. Who goes on every minute looking at comments on walls?

    What do you mean "released"? Released by who? Someone publicly posted on a public FB page, and people took screen shots, then it went viral. No one actually "released" any names.

    Peter Ganley who is a radio dj and has a lot of following posted it on his fb last night.


    That's not "releasing" it. It was in the public eye for absolutely everyone to see if they wanted to. It would have been a different story if the girl sent the mail privately to the hotel and a screenshot of that went viral. But in this case the girl decided to post in the public domain.

    All it takes is for one person to tell another, and they tell their friends, and they tell their friends. That's what viral marketing is all about.

    Cynical? Maybe.

    They offered to...but she kept posting publicly and threatening to go to the media with the story. If they had just deleted the comments people would have assumed guilt....

    It doesn't matter. The thing is public if the hotel has one follower.

    Hotel should have deleted her message and sent her a private message on Facebook.

    Instead, they have got a load of free publicity at the expense of a young girls reputation.

    Not cool.

    Did you not read their Facebook message to her? They asked her for her email/number to discuss it privately but she didn`t respond

    Yet its ok for her to slate the hotel on a public website and threaten further exposure even though she is completely mis-informed and the real culprits were the hooligans on the stag.

    Fair play to the hotel for standing up for its reputation and the reputation of its staff. They also gave her 7 hours to respond personally before addressing the issue publicly.

    Why ask her for an email when you can message her privately on the poxy site?

    They gave her a whole seven hours to reply.

    What reputation?
    She was doing the internet equivalent of standing on the steps of the hotel braying like a fishwife.

    You could also ask why she didn't message them privately?

    Ahh the ones leaving comments on the hotels page are bigger pricks

    "Fair play lads for responding to that incoherent idiot in an entirely appropriate way. If they're going to publicly spread misinformation, they should be ready to have the truth told publicly too."

    Ehhhhh she was only saying what she thought happened, her fiancee obviously told lies.

    Maybe she should have contacted them through proper channels and confirmed the details before trying to publicly slate them. I'm sure the hotel has a phone.

    Sure we could all come on here and rip in to businesses with "facts" we heard 2nd hand. Truth? Pah, who needs that.

    The name of the hotel should never have been released or the woman for that matter.

    She started the whole thing in a public forum. The details were'nt "released" . Shes not some type of supergrass.

    Em she thought she was right in what she knew, she didn't know her fiancee was a lying prick.

    If the story was true you wouldn't be saying the same thing.

    Maybe they don't after one of the guys cleared the reception desk to assault a staff member.

    Why did the hotel go back to the earliest post by her (the one with the story) rather than the latest one then?

    It wouldn't have been as much of a "pwn" had it been in reply to a comment like "ye are a bunch of scammers" or whatever.

    Doesn't say much for the standards at Athlone IT where she studied with writing like that. God help the kid she's a full time mummy to.

    You know some people don't type much so when they do they use txt spk. I know some people who use type like that but they talk normally. Everyone has faults.

    The young girls reputation, or lack of one, is entirely her on doing.

    Why should she be able to publish lies in public but the hotel has to suck it up and keep everything on the quiet? Once she made it public that story was out there. If they then do everything in private, thats the only story that anyone hears. How is that fair?

    Someone just posted this on treacys hotels facebook. She said she was there at the weekend and seen some interesting things!

    Yes Selena, I was staying there that weekend and being respectful to Celina I refuse to publicly say what I seen but what's been made public is only the tip of the iceberg.
