Leonardo Hotel Cork

8/10 Good

"Room was nice but parking facilities very poor as in first come first served"

Imperial Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great central location staff friendly and happy to help"

Clayton Hotel Cork City

8/10 Good

"The room was very spacious and felt premium. However, one of the curtains was damaged, and there was a large stain on the carpet. Though this was only minor as they were only slight cosmetic issues. The biggest issue was the air-conditioning as it barely even worked. We actually found it was more cooling to open the window. If you’re booking because their air conditioning I recommend you book elsewhere. Overall, it was really nice, and the restaurant was also great, I recommend you get the chocolate orange pudding. Also, remember to bring a swim cap as they require it at the pool. They do have swim caps for purchase for €4 if you don’t pack one as well."

Carrigaline Court Hotel and Leisure Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel. The staff were friendly, the restaurant food was great, and the rooms were clean."

Commodore Hotel

8/10 Good

"This is an older Hotel with a nice charm and history to it. Its in a great location. Great safe, free parking on street outside. Staff are excellent, responsive, friendly and take iniative to help you have a good experience. Lift is small and access into the hotel for wheel chair or childs buggy is difficult/ almost impossible...big steps at entrance & no ramp.This is a weak point. Food in hotel is good. Good chef. Water in showerwas not constant hot, would move to just warm quickly. But overall we enjoyed our stay. I think their staff is their biggest assesst. I had my 10mth old baby with me and they were so helpful"
