- The Electricity Deposit Payment of €300.00 is an estimate of how much electricity may cost per student for the academic year at current ESB rates. However, management will refund any unused deposit amount after check-out. Consequently, if a student uses more than €300.00 worth of electricity during the academic year, management reserves the right to make up the shortfall from a Student’s Security Deposit. The utilities payment of €150.00 for Refuse Collection and TV Licence is a fixed charge for the Academic Year.

No guarantee can be given on room type, location, apartment or fellow residents. If The Spires is fully booked we will endeavour to place you in one of our other complexes.
- The basement car park at The Spires is secure and private; however parking is entirely at the owner’s risk. Car parking is included in the accommodation price but spaces are limited and offered on a first come first served basis. If you require a car space, please add this request in the box provided on the Booking Form.
