Cork City Centre

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.

Top South Parish Hotel Reviews

Premier Inn Cork City Centre

8/10 Good

"I would really call this a “budget hotel” it was quite expensive even when booking in the off season and in advance. A standard hotel in the city centre that was easily walkable from the train/bus stations within walkable access to UCC as well. My biggest gripe was that the windows couldn’t be opened (even though it said fresh air was flowing in) and that the hotel was right near construction. But with the limited options in Cork this was a decent place."

Cosy apartment in heart of Cork City

8/10 Good

"The place was clean, was as noted in the pictures, walkable distance to city center, shops and grocery stores. There was soap, shampoo/conditioner, laundry detergent for use. There were also coffee pods with sugar and some spices in the kitchen. The only thing is that the bed sheet was actually a mattress spring box cover instead of a bed sheet. May be this was an oversight, but otherwise all was ok."

The River Lee Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The service -- warmth, responsiveness, sense of humour -- of the staff were the best we have ever experienced. Ditto for the quality of the breakfast as well -- incredible variety of fresh, mostly locally sourced items so that even the continental option was an array of choices unlike any other of this type. Our room was luxurious: super comfy bed, gorgeous view, space, niceties in the room for making espresso, tea or regular coffee."

Rochestown Park Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our stay here. The room was clean, there was a kettle and a mini fridge. Beds were comfortable. It was close for the things we needed. Walking distance to some restaurants. We always saw staff cleaning. The pool was great. Didn't realize I needed a swim cap but they have them available for sale at the pool desk. We didn't use the on-site bar or restaurant. The restaurant has a nice sun room that looked like a great place to enjoy some down time. We did have noise from the room next door because of the adjoining room door which didn't have any sound damping. Also we ended up booking a double room and the beds were small. They did provide a flat sheet for us as it was too warm in the room for a duvet."

Maldron Hotel South Mall Cork City

10/10 Excellent

"Location was great! The street behind is full or restaurants and pubs, the English Market is walking distance and busses to many places can be caught at City Hall, right across the river (5 minute or less walk). The room was very comfortable and well designed with a comfortable king bed and a little area with a table and kettle. The bathroom was spacious and had a great shelf for toiletry bags. It was clean, quiet and in a great location!"
