The Castletroy Park Hotel in Limerick is to re-open under new management just a couple of weeks after it closed its doors.
The hotel, which is famously used by the Ireland rugby team, has been taken over by the Irish-owned Carlton Hotel Group.
The Carlton Group, which currently operates seven luxury four-star hotels around Ireland, has entered into a long-term lease agreement with the Fordmount Property Group, and will operate the hotel under the name 'Carlton Castletroy Park Hotel'.
A total of 120 full and part-time staff will be employed at the hotel.
Michael Kearney, chairman of the Carlton Hotel Group, says the hotel chain is pleased to be in a position to re-open the hotel under the Carlton brand.
'We are very much looking forward to adding the Castletroy Park Hotel to our portfolio of hotels. With its elegant rooms, convenient location and proximity to the University of Limerick, it is truly one of the finest four-star properties in the country,' he said.
