In March 2013 my wife and I made our second visit to Auburn House and thoroughly enjoyed our stay as a result of the charm and personalized attentiveness of Kieran and Olive. As stated by another reviewer, a warm welcome is priceless, and that is precisely what you'll find at this bed and breakfast. If you enjoy authentic experiences with... More

Loved this b&b. Olive greeted us with a smile, tea, coffee and kit kats and instantly let us know directions, maps and city sights.

Olive & Kieran were great hosts & very knowledgeable about local pubs & eating establishments. Our room was very clean and our breakfast more than adequate. The location, just a few blocks fom the center of Cork was also a plus!

It's about half way between Kent Station and Parnell Place bus station, approximately 8 minutes from each. The owners Olive and Kieran made our... More

I stayed there for a week-end visiting Cork, and it was a lovely place. The owner, Olive, was very friendly and helped me in my visit plans. The room was comfortable and the breakfast excellent.
