Alert to the Cahir Community Regarding Kilcoran Lodge Hotel

As part of our commitment to keeping the community informed, Sinne Ná Daoine would like to bring an important matter to the attention of residents and visitors to Cahir and surrounding areas.

The Kilcoran Lodge Hotel, located just outside of Cahir, Co. Tipperary, has been under new ownership with D.E.L. Hotels Limited, directed by Donal Keating and John Lovett. Recently, rumors have circulated within the community regarding potential changes to the hotel’s use. These rumors suggest that Kilcoran Lodge may be transitioning to serve as an IPAS center, housing male migrants under the Irish Protection Accommodation Service (IPAS) program.

If accurate, this change could affect those who have existing plans or bookings with Kilcoran Lodge for upcoming events, such as weddings, family gatherings, or holiday parties. Understandably, this shift raises questions, and members of our community may be concerned about potential safety, security, and logistical implications.

Our Recommendations.

We encourage anyone with concerns to contact Kilcoran Lodge Hotel directly to seek clarification on the status and use of the premises. Confirming these details with the hotel’s management may help those with personal or family events planned there to make informed decisions.

Sinne Ná Daoine remains committed to transparency and community safety. While it is not our role to endorse or verify rumors, we believe in fostering open communication within our community. Please stay engaged with official channels and reach out for firsthand information.

Your vigilance and care help keep our community informed and safe.
