The prospect of acquiring a successfully managed and profitable hotel was a key component in the sale and truly reflective of the strong recovery taking place in the Irish hotel market. The demand for hotel services in Ireland is undoubtedly being driven by the continued revival in the tourism sector. In the first half of 2014 there were an additional 324,400 (10%) overseas visitors to Ireland which underpins the ongoing recovery in the hotel industry”
