We had a lovely stay at the hotel. The facilities are great, the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, and the food was excellent throughout. While some areas are starting to feel a little tired, it didn’t take away from the overall experience. I really enjoyed my time here and will definitely be back!

Everything was great except for the food. The room, amenities, spa, grounds are all amazing. Exceeded our expectations. Food wasn’t great. Over cooked every meal. And it seemed like they water down the drinks. But other than that great!

4/5(22 area reviews)

Cork is officially Ireland's second city, but it is affectionately known by locals as the 'real capital of Ireland'. It is a city made for discovering on foot, thanks to the River Lee which flows around its centre, creating a compact island that is jam-packed with grand Georgian streets, intersected by medieval alleys and modern architectural triumphs such as the opera house.
