Niall Tangney
Event & Banqueting Manager
Niall grew up in the picturesque Gap of Dunloe in Killarney.
He always had a desire for a career in hospitality and his first step into this field was completing his degree in Athlone IT. On completion of his studies in 2000, Niall returned to his hometown of Killarney and commenced his hospitality career at Muckross Park Hotel & Spa.
Niall was originally hired as Supervisor in Major Colgan’s, (known formally at the time as Molly Darcy’s). Throughout his time in Molly Darcy’s, he led a successful team and was pivotal in its success when awarded Black & White Pub of the Year, five years in a row.
Niall certainly has seen some momentous changes during his time at Muckross and he has seen the hotel grow from strength to strength. In 2007, the hotel upgraded from a twenty seven bedroom hotel to a seventy bedroom hotel along with a purpose built conference centre, Spa & it was also at this time that the hotel was awarded its 5-star accreditation by Fáilte Ireland.
Since 2007, Niall has led an extraordinary team throughout his time as Event & Banqueting Manager. He has achieved tremendous success throughout his career so far. He lives for the 5 star experience and creating memorable experiences for our wonderful guests which is his top priority!
