Location excellent for Cork and surrounded by some useful shops and pubs, but can be a bit noisy at night. Easy to get too, very welcoming staff, the rooms are recently refurbished and are excellent. Gym large and well equipped. At times the breakfast team get a little overwhelmed and thus service can be slow. But view and light in the restaurant is excellent. We will be back.
