Burlington on sale for quarter of boom’s €288m price tag
The hotel was bought from the Doyle family, along with an adjoining site for a further €100m, by developer Bernard McNamara at the height of the boom.
While Mr McNamara’s debts now amount to about €2bn, and include a number of hotels and a share of the costly Glass Bottle site, the 501-bed Burlington Hotel has continued under receivership/management to trade successfully.
