Ambassador Hotel and Health Club  

The hotel is in a good location and resturant has good menu for evening meals.

The Hotel is quite dated and they have not spent much on repairs and maintenace of late. The lining in the curtains in our bedroom were ripped/poor quality repairs in the bathroom and general feel in resturant and other parts of the hotel that they have done enough to get by rather then repairing properly. I don't feel that it is 4 star rated.

Friendly staff, free car park, room was clean, bed was comfortable.

The hotel was so big, we had to get two lifts to our room. Good location but wouldn't walk into the city at night, was unsure of the surrounding area.

Liked the charm of the hotel. The staff were extremely helpful, polite and friendly. Had a problem with heat in our room on both nights and though we were offered to move rooms on the second night we declined. However the Manager brought us a heater and also complimentary Irish Coffees and cookies which was absolutely grand. Really enjoyed our stay and will come back again. The meal in the restaurant was top class and breakfast was excellent too.

The bedroom was a good size, able to have room to move around. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom was large and the shower worked well. The furntiure was a little outdated but clean. The halllway smelled musty but the room was fresh smelling. The hotel is old and it took 2 lifts to get to our room but it was very quiet.

The front staff was a bit short with us at check-in.Was not very forth coming with extra info in regrads to our erservation and possible breakfast teh following morning then, in asking for an extra towel she stated that we had 2 towels and would not listen to a request of extra towels. The next day the person at the desk was much nicer. There was one staff person in the restaurant that would not explain the menyu, but ohters made up for her. Overall the food for breakfast was good.

The huge rooms, very good breakfasts, the fact that it was a well used venue on the slowest weekend of the year i.e. the first weekend after the New Year

It was a very cold weekend and the steps needed to be gritted but that could be applied to everywhere in Cork

A very cosy homely establishment. Relaxing and comfortable.

The hills.

The staff were very welcoming and friendly. Our room was at the front of the building with a balcony and fantastic view over Cork City. The room was spacious, comfortable and extremely clean. There was a great selection for breakfast with staff very eager to serve. We used the spa facilities and found them to be satisfactory, extra towels and locker facilities were available. We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay and we were extremely impressed with the front of house staff who were more than happy to not only help but just have a chat and go that extra mile.

The location was good,a 10 min walk from the city center. The staff were friendly and effiecent and the meal we had was very good and great value for money. I will stay here again.

It was a little bit to warm and the decor needs up grading.

At last a proper hotel with a genuinely warm reception! A beautiful room with balcony overlooking the twinkling lights of Cork City!

It was very nice and relaxing.

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast was tasty and freshly cooked..

My first impression of the hotel was that it was drab and dated,however the room was clean and the food was good so I would consider it very good value

Pleasant, helpful, cooperative, responsive staff. Spacious, well- appointed, comfortable room in the new section. Can walk into the middle of Cork and its pedestrian shopping centre. Free parking available on hotel site or on the street outside. Free WiFi for Internet connection.

The soundproofing of our particular room in the new section was not very good, especially from festivities in the function rooms in the original building and the noises of people and vehicles in the parking lot. This was mainly due to an air vent in the window frame which did not seal shut and so connected the interior of the room with activities going on outside. A (quieter) room at the far end of the original building needed superficial renovation such as repainting. One could feel a draft of cold air coming from around the windows; the hotel provided us with a room fan heater which resolved the situation. The WiFi signal did not work in the room but did in the corridor outside the room. Both rooms needed an ordinary chair at the desk so that one could comfortably write and use a laptop computer.
