Nothing specifically wrong with the hotel other than all the dark paint and rugs. Disliked the fact of all the smokers standing next to the front door of the hotel. Great breakfast and friendly check in staff

It was a clean and staffed with very nice people. I was expecting more as it had a 9/10 rating is all. Parking and bringing luggage into hotel was a challenge as no elevator from parking and I couldn’t drop at door and leave luggage alone to go park. The staff were 10/10

Nice hotel. Lovely clean and spacious room. The outside paintwork doesn’t give a good impression but don’t worry, the rooms are much better.

Extremely noisy on arrival , communion lunch going on but kids run amok everywhere no supervision so we had to get out of the hotel for hours. Getting a drink at the bar was an effort - although tables empty long wait to be seated and poor service

Bathroom problem.
Nice and friendly upmarket venue with nice breakfast,but the ensuite bathroom smelled of mildew,which caused black ceilings in the shower.Bathroom door had to be wedged open to try and provide air to reduce the bad smell of mildew which also pervaded the corridor.

We decided to stay just out of Cork so we could be closer to the Blarney castle. So glad we did! The hotel was in a perfect location and convenient. The breakfast buffet was plentiful and the rooms clean. The shower area was small but sufficient. Great views from our room.
