From Code to Comfort: Tech Billionaire’s Bold Tourism Move
John Collison, co-founder of payment giant Stripe, is transforming the derelict Millbrook House estate in County Laois, Ireland into a luxury boutique hotel and restaurant.
The plan includes:
◉ 16 stylish guest rooms
◉ A farm-to-table restaurant focused on local Irish produce
◉ A historic revival of an 18th-century manor house
◉ Job creation for the local economy through tourism and hospitality
This isn’t just about real estate, it’s about curating a unique countryside guest experience grounded in design, storytelling, and heritage.
✦ Why It’s More Than a Vanity Project
Collison’s foray into hotels comes with purpose:
⦿ Cultural Revival – Restoring and activating a long-neglected piece of Irish architectural history.
⦿ High-End Tourism Development – Addressing the demand for luxury countryside retreats with curated lifestyle experiences.
⦿ Experience-Driven Hospitality – A tech mind rethinking how intimacy, digital simplicity, and environment can elevate the hotel stay.
If successful, it could signal a broader trend of tech billionaires bringing capital and innovation to boutique hospitality.
