Bookings Up For Irish Family-Owned Hotels
New figures released today show that bookings in Irish family-owned hotels have increased in the first two months of this year.
Irish Country Hotels, a collection of 26 family-owned hotels in Ireland, show a 21% increase in bookings for January and February compared to the same period in 2011.
The figures have been released as Taoiseach, Enda Kenny, announced the inclusion of Irish Country Hotels as the latest member of Guaranteed Irish.
They are the first hotels to be given the Guaranteed Irish logo - a symbol for Irish manufactured goods and services.
The group says this indicates a trend towards 'real Irish' holidays for this year.
