As an old historical hotel, it is stunningly beautiful. Also as an old hotel, floors are creaky from rooms above and the plumbing can be heard from above room. Lovely room but terrible view of adjacent rooftops. Fitzgerald bar is a piece of art in itself. Pricey hotel but central and elegant.

A lovely classic property in the heart of downtown. Check-in was easy and the rooms were nice. The price definitely feels related to the downtown accessibility because while the rooms were nice and comfortable, they were clearly dated with visible wear and tear. The related restaurant was fine with a variety of breakfast options, though the food was ok, many of the serving staff seamed like they were training. The location and the classic appeal is the selling point, though it didn’t quite feel like the price point was worth it.

Beautiful historic hotel, oldest in Cork with lots of history. Rooms are very clean with plenty of room. Staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is served till 10.30am but the buffet was sparse when we went down at 10am. Nothing replenished with no cheese & meets at all. Cooked breakfast was very good.

This hotel was magnificent! The best way to describe it was a hotel from the USA roaring 20s - the opulence. The concierge we asked about getting to the Gaol (tourist attraction "prison") and the train station was very rude and the multiple ladies at the front desk were very condescending but it didn't ruin our stay. The hotel was located near the English Market and restaurants and shopping. The parking garage was a bit of a walk, but it was free and the car was protected. The room was as you would expect in Europe, in terms of size, but the old fashioned character and charm was there. We would go back and would gladly recommend it to anyone.
