Dalata on the clock over role in Ballsbridge hotels

It is decision time for Dalata as to whether or not the country’s largest hotel group wants to play a part in any deal for two landmark Ballsbridge hotels, its chief executive has said.

Earlier this month, it was announced that the former Berkeley Court and Jurys hotels would be brought to market with an expected price tag of €120m to €150m.

The combined 6.8 acre site is set to be redeveloped at some stage over the coming years once it has been snapped up and Dalata — which operates both hotels — is mulling over what involvement, if any, it will have.
