Own a piece of history

One of Cork city’s oldest hotels, the Victoria Hotel on St Patrick Street, is for sale by tender in April.

Dating back to 1810, it has played a pivotal role in the social, sporting, and political life of the city over three centuries. Now, with its ground floor more or less given over to retail, it’s a hospitality investment, with function room, bar, and 33 bedrooms.

Originally called the Royal Victorian Hotel, and owned for the past two decades by the King family, it has 32, 000 sq ft gross and dual access to its upper levels both from St Patrick Street, and Cook Street.
