Perfect location on the water and easy walk to the sites, restaurants, pubs and shops in town. Staff were very friendly and helpful with any questions. Wonderful breakfasts to start our days. And there was onsite parking. Will definitely recommend to anyone that is traveling there and if I’m lucky to return I will stay again.

Outstanding location, 2 blocks from the town square. Free parking under the hotel. Cobh was one of my favorite stops on our 10 stop, 3-week trip around the emerald isle. Each morning there was a new cruise ship viewable from the breakfast patio, but the town was perfectly walkable and not over-run by the cruise ship passengers. The Cobh Heritage Center is across the street and they helped my find some ancestors from Cork. It was a short, but invigorating walk uphill to line of the colorful houses on West View (referred to as Deck of Cards) with the Cathedral over the top.

Loved the property I wish I booked more days! The room and view were amazing there was no AC but the coastal breeze was enough to cool down the room. I loved this hotel and hope to go back in the future. Super clean and just amazing aesthetic. I think it’s the nicest rooms I’ve had in a hotel. They will hold bags for if you are too early to check in but it’s held in the lobby and not in a separate locked room.

Loved being an easy walk to the waterfront. Having a direct view of the ocean and hearing the waves hitting the shore was a real treat.

Great location with historic surroundings

Reception good - nice welcoming staff. Great location and good parking below the hotel . Great sea view from our room and a few minutes walk to the railway station for our day trip into Cork. Heritage centre next door worth a visit - a lot more interesting and more to it than it looks from the outside. Ate in the restaurant - service was ok and food was ok but menu not very exciting. Staff could be more attentive as we had to keep asking for things. All Brits please note - at breakfast which was otherwise good - they DON’T DO brown sauce - suggest you bring your own!

The hotel did not have a lift, so it was difficult for seniors getting luggage up to the rooms. Rooms were clean and of average size. Great view overlooking harbor boat and ship traffic. Reception ladies were very nice and helpful. We found the restaurant to be decent, but slow and overworked staff.
