Myself and my husband stayed here for a 2 night break recently. Definitely a 5-star hotel-no complaints about it. Staff so friendly and helpful from check-in to departure. Our bedroom was beautiful, spotless with A/C. A hugh bathroom, separate bath and very large shower/wet room. The bathrobes and slippers were a lovely bonus. Our bed was huge and very comfortable....

So, I’m not one of these reviewers who award 1 star to a hotel because the slices of cheese are cut too thickly on the breakfast plate, or because the staff wish you a genuine good morning in a natural friendly style rather than saying “Good morning, Sir!”, or because the barman didn’t know how to make a passion-fruit-cosmo-vodka-politan cocktail,...

Lovely hotel, reception staff very friendly as was all the staff. Bar food great. A little bit disappointed with restaurant selection as we were on a offer of B/B & evening meal and did not have full choice of menu on this deal. Lovely walks around hotel & close to Cork for shopping. Will definately be going back.
