US EditionDalata Hotel Group Agrees to €1.4 Billion Takeover Deal
COUNTY DUBLIN, IRELAND, JUL 15 – Dalata shareholders will receive €6.45 per share, a 12% premium, as Pandox and Eiendomsspar aim to expand their presence in Ireland and the UK hotel markets.
- On July 16, 2025, Pandox and Eiendomsspar, two property firms from Scandinavia, announced their plan to acquire Dalata, Ireland’s biggest hotel operator, for €1.4 billion.
- Dalata launched a strategic review in March 2025 to increase shareholder returns and initially rejected a €1.3 billion offer it deemed undervaluing the group.
- Dalata operates 56 hotels mainly under the Maldron and Clayton brands across Ireland, Britain, Germany, and the Netherlands and plans further European expansion.
- Shareholders will receive €6.45 cash per share, representing about a 12% premium over the June 2 closing price, with Pandox owning 91.5% and Eiendomsspar 8.5% of the new entity.
- Dalata will retain its staff and headquarters after the deal, which its CEO Dermot Crowley said will accelerate growth by joining a larger platform with better capital access.
