Wonderful stay. Excellent location. Staff was friendly and helpful. The bar was a delight. Free parking is first-come, first served but there is significant turn over so just waiting ten minutes usually did the trick.

Overall a nice hotel but parking can be an issue and I don’t think it’s the worth the price for a night. Very family friendly and busy for kids.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

This was probably my favorite hotel of all the ones we stayed during our tour of Ireland. It was once a hospital and has a lot of neat history. It is located in the Shandon area, very near some beautiful Cathedrals. It is a bit of walk to the actual shopping, but would definitely stay here again. The staff was very nice and accommodating. We stayed in a family room, and it was perfect! King bed in the center, twin beds on each side!

Verified review

8/10 Very good

Very friendly staff, clean rooms and centrally located in Cork. They advertise onsite parking when in reality there’s about 12 spots and it’s first come first serve. They have an agreement with a parking garage for a discount rate but it’s down and hill and requires you to walk down/up stairs. Besides that, everything was great and we would stay here again. Our bartender Shanice was amazing.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

The hotel staff were very polite and helpful. The small onsite parking area was closed for construction so parking was a bit of a problem. The hotel did validate the offsite parking fees which was very helpful.

The hotel is in a great location. It’s an easy walk from the train station and close to the city center. The automated check in process was quick and easy. The room was spacious and comfortable. The breakfast had a lot of variety. It was a very nice place to stay.
