Carson McDowell advises on the sale of the Armagh City Hotel

Carson McDowell was delighted to advise the owners of Armagh City Hotel Limited on the sale of Armagh City Hotel to McKeever Hotel Group.

Boasting the largest hotel conference and banqueting facility in Northern Ireland outside of Belfast, the Armagh City Hotel is an important venue in Ireland’s oldest city. The Carson McDowell team was led by Gerard Armstrong (Corporate) and Dawson McConkey (Real Estate) and also comprised colleagues including Rachel Penny (Employment), Sinead McGrath (Banking), Lynsey Henderson (Corporate) and Lucy Megarry (Corporate).

The hotel’s former owners, Kieran McAnallan, Felix Mooney, Brian McCormack, and Ernie Fisher, said:

“We are delighted that the McKeever team is now at the helm of the Armagh City Hotel. We are confident that their combined experience, knowledge and family-focused approach will be fundamental in driving this great facility, and its loyal workforce, forward. We are incredibly proud of what we have achieved over the past 23 years and deeply grateful to everyone who has been part of this journey. As we step aside, we do so with immense appreciation and excitement for the hotel’s future under the McKeever family’s stewardship.”

Felix Mooney added:

“The Directors of Armagh City Hotel have worked with Carson McDowell over many years. Gerard Armstrong and his dedicated team together with Dawson McConkey and Rachel Penny all contributed to make an emotional transaction as stress free as it could be after 23 years of ownership. The team were always helpful and considerate and went the extra mile to assist us through the legal and commercial process. Without their unique brand of help the transaction would have been much more difficult and prolonged.”
