Revenues double to €5.4m at Kerry hotel — but all too late for Cullen

Revenues at the five-star Muckross Park Hotel have topped €5.4 million in its first year in receivership.

The income at the Co Kerry hotel is more than double the €2.77m in revenues it recorded in 2011 — the last period in which the Bill Cullen company that operated the hotel filed accounts.

However, the turnaround in the hotel’s fortunes has come too late for Mr Cullen and his partner, Jackie Lavin, who lost control of the hotel in a court battle with ACC last year.
