the 1990s marked a new era for jurys as it grew into one of ireland' s leading hotel groups, then captured the top position at the end of the decade. acquisitions formed a good part of the company' s growth, starting with its first acquisition, in 1990, of the ardree hotel in waterford. yet jurys had also set its sights on developing an international hotel portfolio, with its natural target being the united kingdom. in 1990, the company made its first entry into the united kingdom, buying a glasgow hotel from the stakis group. a new acquisition, in 1993, added the group' s first london hotel, the onslow, which was subsequently renamed the jurys kensington .
in response, the company decided to disband, selling off its properties, including the original jurys hotel, in order to reform as a new company, jurys hotel group ltd. that company was specifically founded in order to acquire three new hotels in dublin' s ballsbridge, and in cork and limerick from the irish and interncontinentals hotels group. nearly all of the company' s former shareholders participated in the operation. at the same time, the company took on a number of new investors .

the company next renamed its new properties under the jurys hotel brand, with the jurys hotel ballsbridge serving as the company' s flagship. the company grew strongly into the early 1980s, expanding its cork hotel in 1980 and again in 1986. the boom in ireland' s tourist trade prompted the group to begin seeking further expansion. in order to fuel its new growth plans, the company went public in 1986, listing on the irish stock exchange. the public offering was accompanied by the opening of a new major hotel, the towers, in dublin .
the investment fund, controlled by the government of the sultanate of oman, will have equal representation with quinlan private on the jurys inns board. established in 2006, the organisation' s stake in the chain is believed to be the first investment of significant scale by any sovereign wealth fund in any irish company .
yet even as the company' s new hotels opened, the tourist market appeared to fizzle out. confronted with high maintenance costs for its aging dublin hotels, softer than expected traffic at its western sites, and rising competition - - notably from the pv doyle group, founded in 1964 - - jurys now faced an uncertain future .
that year marked the next major moment in jurys history when the company agreed to purchase irish rival doyle hotel group in a cash and shares deal worth irp194. 5 million. since its founding in 1964, the doyle group had grown into one of ireland' s major hotel groups, with properties in ireland and the united kingdom, but also with a small holding in the united states .
in 1924, after the hotel had been vacant for some two years, a group of dublin businessmen bought the property, founding jurys hotel ltd. that company bought a second property in dublin, on moira street. later, in 1963, the company unveiled a new 80 - room wing for the original college green property. the boom in the irish tourist market during that decade encouraged the company to add two new hotels in the west of ireland; one opened in westport in 1970 and the other in sligo in 1971 .
