These development works are slated to complete in 2020. However, these works will not lead to change in property rent.

Dalata’s deputy chief executive for business development & finance Dermot Crowley said the company began work on this transaction before the Covid-19 pandemic.

Crowley was quoted as saying: “Completing a transaction such as this despite the onset of the crisis demonstrates the commitment of both Deka and Dalata to this partnership and their long-term commitments. The agreed terms for this transaction reflect both the quality of the asset and the strength of Dalata’s balance sheet.”

Proceeds from the deal will help the hotel firm to bolster its cash resources during the present Covid-19 crisis.
