Cork hotel to open doors to guests again after 40 years
The hotel is poised to open its doors to overnight guests next month.

With no prior experience in hospitality, they took a hands-on approach – grouting, wall-building, and plastering – doing epic amounts of the work themselves.


“It’s now operating as a motel again for the first time in over 40 years! We did the designs very early on in the project so, to finally see them in the flesh after two years of work is really special,” said Aislinn.

They’re learning all the time and say that in itself has been a crucial part of the whole journey.

“Launching the rooms is the really exciting part for us because this is the part we’ve been looking forward to since we first started the project. We have pet-friendly rooms and Swim Club Deli is pet-friendly so that’s been a big draw for people who want to bring their pets on holiday with them.
