THE family-owned hospitality group McKeever Hotels has announced plans to invest £1.9 million in two of its five properties.
Work is already underway at the four star Dunadry Hotel in Antrim and Dillons Hotel in Letterkenny, Co Donegal.
Dillons Hotel is receiving most of the investment, with £1.3 million being used to convert a third of the bedrooms into luxury suites. The work is expected to be completed by the end of May 2023.
The remaining £500,000 will be invested into Dunadry Hotel and Gardens, to completely refurbish the lobby reception and entrance, as well as developing an exciting new cellar experience for wine and whiskey tastings, expected to be completed this Spring.
Eddie McKeever, director of operations at McKeever Hotels, and the newly-appointed president of the Northern Ireland Hotels Federation, said: “We’re very excited to announce this latest round of investment within McKeever Hotels.
“Both Dunadry Hotel and Gardens and Dillon’s Hotel are landmark properties in our portfolio, and this investment is creating fantastic added value for our guests, whether that is through the options of more luxurious suites at Dillons or a brand new cellar experience at Dunadry.
“We’re very excited for the completed works this spring and showcasing our refreshed look and enhanced offering.”
The other properties in the McKeever Hotels portfolio include: Corr’s Corner Hotel on the outskirts of Belfast; Dunsilly Hotel in Antrim; and the Adair Arms Hotel in Ballymena town centre.
