The Address Cork

10/10 Excellent
"The hotel is a lovely property with spacious rooms which are tastefully decorated. The reception staff were welcoming and had my room key available in no time. The parking is on site but busy when I arrived. The location is relatively close to the shops and restaurants but be advised that it is a walk uphill when heading back. Great hotel and location, will stay again when I am next in town."

The River Lee Hotel

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."

Radisson Blu Hotel, Cork

Radisson Blu Hotel, Cork

8/10 Good
"If you ask for a quiet room check the room first as they put us near noisy extractor fans/ air con. Called reception and they moved us to a lovely quiet room. Breakfast excellent as were our dinners Not all water jets working in spa but it didn't deter from our experience. Train station 10min walk 1 stop to Cork highly recommend using train to visit the city."
