This morning's fire at the Burlington Hotel in Dublin started in the room of Ireland's showjumping chef dÂ’equipe.
Business is back to normal at the hotel - which has recently been re-named the DT Dublin Hotel.
Robert Spalaine says he realised there was something up when he heard a loud bang in his room at 5 o'clock this morning:
Meanwhile,
Three people have been hospitalised following a separate fire on Westland Row in Dublin this morning.
Fire-fighters are descibing the blaze, which broke out at the Presbytery at around 6am, as "small".
They discovered three people sleeping upstairs.
There are no reports of injuries, but they were brought to hospital as a precaution.
