This hotel is NOT a 4 star hotel. The room had a strange smell and the AC performed very poorly. The window barely let in enough fresh air so the room was very warm. The room was also quite dusty. The “gym” was very small and supplied very poor equipment. Would not stay there again.

The hotel itself was lovely! Small things, no tissue in the room, bathroom sink didn’t drain properly! I did inform the staff. However the parking was a nightmare, not only was there no pull in to drop our luggage, we had to walk to a parking garage a couple blocks away! I understand that it is not the hotels fault however additional details or a message prior to check-in would have been appreciated. The front desk staff were lovely, and took it upon themselves to come outside and assist with our luggage and take it directly to our room, also made a lovely recommendation for dinner as well.

Clean comfortable modern property that was in a great location, nearby the Victorian Quarter, St Patrick’s street and the English Market. My reason for 4 over 5 stars is that we didn’t have amenities such as body soap or shampoo. The only container that had anything was the hand soap. Also, the staff was really nice but weren’t equipped to provide basic recommendations in the area, like best pubs and restaurants. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend.

Great location and nice spacious room. However, our air conditioning kept turning off throughout the night and we’re not given any help in resolving the issue. Great proximity to downtown and attractions.

Great location in the middle of Cork. Room was lovely (although the view was just of an internal courtyard... Not that that mattered). Decent size room, comfy bed. Reception staff very helpful. Nice and quiet. Excellent breakfast! Restaurant nice too. Parking available at a good discounted rate in the nearby City Hall multistory. You can park outside for 15mins to drop bags though. Would stay again for sure!

Liked: Staff & service

We had to switch rooms due to a strong mold smell and hair and trash found behind the curtains. The second room, right next door, was slightly better, but the bathroom had a funky odor. It was also very noisy, as the room shook every time neighbors opened or closed their doors. To make things worse, cigarette smoke drifted in whenever the windows were open, since staff were smoking directly below. On top of that, the hotel is located on a busy street with constant traffic and construction noise, making it difficult to get any rest. Staff were great and helpful.
