"Room was spacious this was after we refused first room 409 because window looked out onto a brick wall we eventually had 412 which better but bathroom needs refurbishing and water pressure was very low"
"Staying at Ballyvolane was like being in an Irish historical novel. It was amazing in every aspect: food, bed comfort, and especially the staff. They made us feel so welcome. We would recommend Ballyvolane to anyone who wants a peaceful stay in a beautiful manor house!"

The River Lee Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"We liked the location. Quiet but close to everything. University College Cork was a few blocks away…lovely campus. Fitzgerald Park was not far…great playground, stopped to watch a Cricket match at the Cork County Cricket Club that is right next to the park. Short walk to the city centre. The hotel restaurant is great. Highly recommend. "
"The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. From the front desk clerk giving recommending places nearby to eat, to the friendly breakfast room team and the extra assistant at check out. These were some of the best hotel staff I have encountered on my extended 3 month trip around Europe.
The room was nice and clean and the beds were very comfortable.
The only concerns we had was the neighborhood was a bit rough and the walk to Oliver Plunket Street using the back alley (per our GPS instructions) for dinner was somewhat concerning. We took the walk back along the quayside by the bus terminal and that had better lighting and felt somewhat safer.
I would recommend staying here. "
"Well situated in city centre to provide a good insight to Ireland.
From exploring history, cuisine, shops, both within the city and from surounding regions.
Well worth a return to the friendly welome to departure."
"We stayed one night in a family suite. The room was lovely and spacious with an absolutely ginormous bathroom. The beds were very comfortable and we appreciated the extra seating area. A couple small items - we were there when it was quite hot, and although the room was equipped with an AC unit that blew air, it never actually cooled off. To be fair, I didn't figure this out until the middle of the night, so I didn't report it til checkout. If you're not from Ireland, fair warning that hotels don't seem to provide conditioner. However, overall a nice stay and an easy drive into city center as well as highway access. "
