The Park Hotel Dungarvan, part of the Flynn Hotel Collection, has announced the largest expansion since the hotel first opened in 1990. The €4m investment includes the development of 21 new family bedrooms, increasing the hotel’s bedroom capacity from 84 to 105, creating approximately 30 new roles across accommodation, food and beverage and hotel operations, and a €150,000 upgrade of the hotel’s outdoor Garden Bar alongside further investment in its leisure facilities.

The new family floor has significantly increased the hotel’s capacity for family stays. Ten of the new rooms can accommodate two adults, two children and a baby, while eleven can accommodate two adults, three children and a baby. The room mix also includes a two-bedroom family suite suitable for two adults, two children and a baby. The expansion comes as Dungarvan continues to grow in popularity as a destination for family holidays, short stays and seasonal breaks.

The investment also reflects the Flynn Hotel Collection’s longstanding focus on family hospitality. Sister properties Newpark Hotel in Kilkenny and The Old Ground Hotel in Ennis have earned national recognition for their family offerings on a number of occasions. In addition to the new family accommodation, the €4m investment includes improvements to the Riverside Health Club with the addition of a new sauna. General Manager Declan Moriarty said the expansion marked an exciting new chapter for the hotel.
