National Council in January 2013 will take place at IT Tralee Students’ Union on 26 January 2013.

The President at IT Tralee SU has provided a very comprehensive set of information on the town and arrangements for the weekend.

Message from the President of IT Tralee SU begins:
I hope you’re all keeping well, our SU await your arrival to IT, Tralee this Friday. We will be hosting National Council in our North Campus Business Building in Dromtracker (directions are below).

I have attached a list of all hotels in town and the rates, though I would recommend a few places though depending on your own preferences:

[show_hide title=”Accommodation”]

  • The Manor West(it’s the first hotel on the left as you enter Tralee, and it has a nice gym with pool, sauna etc.)
  • The Carton (not too close to the campus but a nice hotel, with gym)
  • The Meadow Lands (Closet to the North Campus)
  • The Grand (It’s in town so only a few steps away from the mighty Kerry Guinness)
  • The Imperial (as above ^^)
  • Tralee Central (as above ^^)
