Cork hotelier Michael Magner says he has witnessed strong demand for hotels in the city for the 2027 Ryder Cup in Adare Manor. The outgoing president of the Irish Hotels Federation (IHF) said that many Cork hotels, including his own Vienna Woods Hotel in Glanmire, is engaging with the Ryder Cup to help provide accommodation to those travelling for the golf tournament. “Even my own hotel in Cork is working with the Ryder Cup to provide accommodation, and we are not the only ones. Since then, Mr Magner says Irish hotels have had “incredible engagement” with the tournament’s travel services. After completing his two-year term as president of the IHF, Mr Magner has handed the baton over to the managing director of the Mullingar Park Hotel, Matt O’Connor.
