The small towns around Ireland will be worst affected by this law. The women from those towns would love nothing more than to point their fingers at poor blokes, calling them scum. In reality demand will nose dive. What married man with children would risk that type of publicity? Irish men I know have a totally different view to your Swedish clients.
As for your comment about the hotel. It surprises me that someone in your position is so naive in their opinion. Of course the hotel would prefer not to involve the police, and just deal with you themselves. No hotel would want such publicity. As I said up coming journalists love these types of story. I would wage a bet that you're blacklisted from that hotel, which in itself should tell you something.
