I loved being on the water, with easy parking underneath the hotel. The breakfast was amazing and worth the extra money. We stayed during off season, but I loved opening our window to smell the sea air. I also lo ed the close proximity to the Cobh Heritage Centre and the Titanic Museum. I would recommend this hotel to family and friends.

Needs updating

This hotel was very different from what I expected from the pictures/reviews. The rooms are the equivalent to the cheapest, most uncomfortable hotel chain in America. Mattresses are thin and sunken in and almost impossible to sleep on. I could never get the shower to give warm water, it was either scalding or cold. Coffee at breakfast was instant, but the rest of breakfast was very good. I don’t mind a hotel being old, we stayed at some lovely old b and bs here, but this one, although my hopes were high due to pictures and reviews, was more worn and in desperate need of an update from beds to showers/tub. Spackling drips all over tub bottom where I guess they patched holes.

Fabulous views of the working harbor. Best meals in Ireland! Delicious, beautifully presented, and served breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The room was comfortable. The staff was sweet and helpful. The location was perfect - next to the Heritage Museum and a short, scenic walk to lovely Cobh.

Great views over the water, pleasant stay

Slightly old fashioned hotel, but comfortable with large room, all the things included that we needed, plus a beautiful view over the water. Our standard twin was actually a double and single bed which was a bonus. Another like was getting 2 suitcase racks instead of just the one like in other hotels. Breakfast was really good, and we enjoyed dinner we had in the restaurant too. Staff were all friendly and welcoming. There is no lift, so you'll need to carry cases up the stairs. The only downside being overlooking the water is that you may get woken early by cruise ships coming into dock right by the hotel. Think it started at 6am, although my son slept through the first part. Nice to watch, but if you're a light sleeper be prepared to watch it rather than sleep through. We'd stay again.
