Hotel was lovely. Room 212 was great. Very big and spacious. Good view. Bed comfortable. Balcony which you could sit on. A walk up a hill to get there. Breakfast was ok. Not a massive variety.

Very nice clean hotel with generous sized rooms. Great patio and bar area. Well equipped gym/health club. Good location close to restaurants, pubs and downtown attractions. Would have given a five star rating, were it not for a few disappointments: the hotel allowed guests of a private event to smoke in a signed non smoking area at the front entrance, resulting in strong smoke smell in the common areas; and we purchased breakfast on our final morning and despite arriving in the dining room by 8 am, we found the buffet had run out of many items (incl. fruit, yogurt, most breads etc). When we asked, they confirmed that there was no more in the kitchen so these could not be replenished. Given that they required breakfasts to be reserved in advance, one would expect that they’d have a much better handle on required quantities. When we mentioned our disappointment at checkout the front desk rep was apologetic, but there was no offer of even a partial refund.

Just ok.

The address cork was easy to find, grand hotel on the outside and cute lobby/ restaurant. The rooms were quite large but the beds were not comfy and you couldn’t adjust the temperature in the room. There was a couch in one room with white stains all over it. Parking on property is limited. The bathroom in the lobby was also wildly heated- felt like a sauna. Receptionist was nice, easy check in/ check out

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Below standard

The room had two irons and ironing boards, which was a bit strange. No bar fridge to keep your drinks cold. No aircon and we had to open the windows for a bit of fresh air. The bed was not comfortable and rather small. The water pressure in the shower was below standard and although the water pressure was mediocre, to say the least, the shower was clogged and water drained slowly. We had to prop up the tv to be able to view it properly while lying down on the bed to relax. I would rather stay somewhere else when I come to visit Cork again.
