My stay at the hotel was like a dream come true. The rooms were huge and perfect to stay with friends or for families. The freestanding bath, heated tiles in the bathroom, and very comfortable bed made my stay even more enjoyable. The service was absolutely amazing, from the reception on arrival to the bar staff and night porter - they were all top-notch. The location was excellent, close to the city centre and just a short walk to the nearest pubs and restaurants. The dining experience was fantastic, and the view of the waterfall from the dining room was a real treat. The facilities were great, providing everything I needed for a comfortable stay.

The hotel is located just outside the main center of Cork, making it convenient for short-term stays and easy walking to all the attractions. The service was professional and attentive, although the property is not suitable for everyone due to the stairs. The traditional Irish music scene at The Corner House is a big draw for fans.

The hotel is conveniently located near the main streets in Cork, making it ideal for groups and families. The rooms had most things needed for our stay but were unbearably hot at times. The service was excellent with friendly and helpful staff, including a welcoming reception. The location is perfect, right in the city center, and offers the comforts of home with good facilities. The dining experience had its shortcomings, including a limited breakfast selection, but they accommodated vegetarians. Overall, a convenient choice with some room for improvement.

The hotel was modern, clean, and very comfortable for our two small kids, but the rooms were very hot and not easily cooled off. The service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to assist, especially a man wearing a tazmanian tie. The location was central, but our room was quiet.

The hotel's courtyard entrance and view of the waterfall from the dining area were lovely. However, the room in the 2-bed apartment faced the front of the building, resulting in early morning traffic noise and noise from bottle bins being emptied. The rooms seemed a bit older, maybe around 10 years.
