Hotel offer in Killarney

A family-run Killarney hotel, run for 20 years by its owners Denis and Joan Counihan who have a generations-long link to Kerry hospitality, is up for sale for €1.85 million.

Listed this month for the owners, who are now retiring, is the 24-bedroomed Brook Lodge Hotel, on the Monsignor O’Flaherty Road, right next to Killarney’s High Street, making it a very central and accessible accommodation spot in one of the country’s busiest tourism locations.

Built in the late 1990s, and highly rated over the past five years on Tripadvisor’s Travellers Awards, the four-star hotel is on 1.1 acres, trades very well — “and is a walk-in job for any new owners,” according to joint selling agent Tom Spillane, acting with Sherry FitzGerald Coughlan.
