The staff were less than helpful, There was no car parking anywhere near the hotel. It was student accommodation and not suitable for mature aged travellers. We chose not to stay here and found another motel.

Cork is great. We love coming here with our friends and family when they visit Ireland. It always impresses.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveler

Take the bus to Blarney Castle, it's easy (2,80E each way). If you're heading back late in the day there may be a bit of a wait for the bus (but there is a pub with wifi right by the bus stop). Blarney Woollen Mills is a worthwhile stop too.
