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.

Good and Bad points

The hotel was Ok overall. There were good and bad points. There was a great selection of food available for breakfast - self service. And lots of gluten free options for my son. But the rooms were expensive, the view was awful and the pillow was stained. There is only space for 4 cars parking for 15mins for drop off outside. The reduced overnight parking at a nearby car park was a good discount though. There were electric car chargers at the carpark too. The online check in was pointless for a family stay, confusing and just seemed to be there to upsell you things for your stay that you probably don’t need. In my case it encouraged me to buy breakfast even though I’d paid for that with the original booking. Thankfully the hotel have refunded me the additional payments.

The good- Front desk staff was great, location was central and walkable to food, shops, waterfront. Room was comfy. The drop to good from excellent- crumbs all over the 2 chairs in the room (so not cleaned), air conditioner kept going off, vending machine that had electric adapters didn’t dispense, construction all in front made a 2 minute walk a 15 minute drive, no one gave us where to park prior to check in- so back in car for more crazy directions to get to garage.

Best sleep

The bed in my room had the comfiest mattress in the world. I liked the layout of my spacious room. Service was great, i forgot a shaver and they had them free of charge. The only issue for me was the parking a bit far from the hotel.

The hotel’s location is fantastic — central, convenient, and walkable to everything we needed. That alone made our stay manageable. However, several issues would make me choose a different place next time, especially given how many other hotel options are in the area. The biggest downside was the noise. The building seems to be constructed in a way that every door closing or slamming echoed loudly into our room, even late at night. It made it difficult to fully relax or get a solid night’s sleep. Temperature control was also a problem. The thermostat in our room was broken, so we had to rely on the front desk to adjust it remotely, which never actually set it to a comfortable level. It always felt off —way too cool — and we had no way to fix it ourselves. Cleanliness was another concern. While nothing was outright filthy, it clearly hadn’t been cleaned thoroughly. My son was playing with Legos on the floor and kept getting other people’s hair tangled in the wheels — more than once. That’s something that shouldn’t happen in any hotel room. Finally, for what the hotel offers, it felt overpriced. The amenities didn’t match the rate, especially compared to what else is available nearby. All in all, while the location is excellent, the noise, temperature issues, and lack of cleanliness mean I wouldn’t stay here again. With so many options in the area, it’s worth looking elsewhere.

Cork itself is a gritty city. There is no way this hotel is a 4⭐️. I’ve seen a hotel before that had a “check in kiosk”. Rooms were basic- no toiletries in the room. Shampoo and conditioner were in bottles hung on the wall in the shower. Daily made service was incomplete and poorly done. Staff themselves were lovely and very helpful. I would not stay here again and I would not recommend it. Poor value - almost $1200 CAD for 3 nts. Not worth it.

Location is great if you're here for shopping or an event in downtown, the hotel has kids camp from 5-9 pm which was unique. Breakfast was great. Only issue was that the rooms in the 1st for are below ground for (basement), and was noisy in the morning!
