The HSE occupy a large number of buildings throughout the country. In this particular case, the canteen room is shared by almost 50 staff at a time and becomes an extremely busy and noisy environment to take a break. Its an interesting and very common problem within spaces like this.
Creevy National School in South Donegal had a renovation to the entire school in 2011. The finishes to the GP Hall, classrooms and common areas were excellent. The only problem you will have from this point is the large reflective surfaces. Like most National School halls, they are multi-purpose spaces, not just for Sports.
This National School in South Donegal had a renovation to the building back in 2011, not that long ago! However, while a number of the existing classrooms received refurbishment, the attention to the room acoustics were not part of the design.
