Doyle consortium looks to have ended Jurys saga

JDH, the consortium led by the daughters of the late PV Doyle, has secured over 50% of the equity of Jurys Doyle Hotel chain to gain control of the business.

The consortium bid €1.25 billion for Jurys to retain the group intact.

After months of speculation the family, which initially held a significant minority stake in the business, were the only ones to put a firm offer to shareholders.
