Main Photo: Adagio Cork
Date: March 2022
Name: Adagio Cork – to open Summer 2024
Location: South Terrace, Cork, Ireland
Number of Keys: 103
Seller: N/A
Buyer: JMK Group
JMK Group is set open a 103-key Adagio aparthotel in three converted Georgian properties on Cork’s South Terrace.
A planning statement says the proposal will provide for the “sensitive conservation and reuse of numbers 31-33 South Terrace” which are protected structures. It adds that the proposed development “represents a significant opportunity to rejuvenate an important site with heritage value within Cork city, while also proactively combatting vacancy and dereliction”.
Works for the proposed new development would include partial demolition to the rear of 31 South Terrace, internal and external modifications, the refurbishment and change of use of the existing buildings and the construction of the five-floor over-ground floor and lower-ground floor annex to the rear of the protected structures. The annex is to be connected to the existing buildings by means of a glazed link at ground floor to the rear of number 31.
The proposed development will include reception areas, dining and resident lounge spaces, a fitness room, a kitchen, storage, staff welfare areas and bicycle storage areas, as well as an external landscaped courtyard and green roof. Planners at Cork City Council are due to make a decision on the application by April 21.
John Kajani, chairman of the JMK Group said: “We are delighted to expand our presence in Cork with the first Adagio Aparthotel in Cork city. This will be the first aparthotel for the JMK Group and new partnership with ACCORHOTELS. We look forward to welcoming our first guests in 2024.”
The JMK Group currently has portfolio of five hotels in Ireland including Holiday Inn Dublin Airport, Holiday Inn Express Dublin City Centre, Waterford Marina Hotel, Hampton by Hilton Dublin City Centre, opening in April this year, and Moxy Hotel and Residence Inn by Marriott Cork City, which will open on Cork’s Camden Quay in autumn 2023.
