THE International Hotel held a very special celebration at its staff Christmas party during the festive season at the beautifully decked out Cahernane House Hotel. The Coyne family marked their 40th anniversary as owners of the International Hotel where Sean and Frankie consider themselves the “current caretakers” of the iconic town-centre landmark which has traded as the International Hotel since the mid-1880s.

Adding further glitz and glamour to the festivities was a special presentation to 24 of the 91 staff currently employed in the business including Patricia O’Doherty, who has been part of the team at the International for over 35 years! Special gifts of appreciation were presented by Frankie, with the help of general manager Terence Mulcahy, also sitting president of the Irish Hotels Federation in Kerry. Each of the staff members received a beautifully packaged watch from Keanes Jewellers to mark their long and dedicated service at the International.
