The Kerry Branch of the Irish Hotels Federation (IHF) has warmly welcomed the announcement today that the Killarney Great Southern Hotel has been purchased by a partnership of Killarney business people. IHF Kerry Branch Chair Emer Moynihan stated it is fitting that the hotel, which has a 150 year tradition, should remain in local hands to ensure its legacy of heritage, quality and style will be continued into a new era of ownership.
Emer Moynihan states, “On behalf of the IHF I am delighted at the news that the Killarney Great Southern Hotel is to continuing doing business under local ownership. The Killarney Great Southern has long been a landmark hotel in the region, popular with overseas and domestic visitors alike, and a hub for many conferences and events. I have every confidence that the individuals involved will bring their expertise to bear to ensure that this long standing hotel property continues to flourish.”
“In particular I’m delighted to see that Padraig and Janet Treacy are involved in the venture. As members of the IHF the Treacy’s have always demonstrated great professionalism in their existing hotels, and have shown enormous commitment to Killarney and to high standards. They are highly respected hoteliers and I look forward to seeing the Great Southern Hotel, under their tenure, go from strength to strength over the coming months and years”, Ms Moynihan concludes.
