Some of the bus routes/stops could have been clearer ie 225/226 from Cork City centre to the airport - random bus sign with no number marking outside a hotel however bus drivers were super helpful with directions.
The Blarney Castle was worth the visit if you like Gardens and history. Fitzgerald Park was a bit of a trek and wasn't really that exciting.. Good if you want some quiet time in nature in a OK park. However the English market is great with lots of choice of worldwide foods, seafood stalls were impressive and the poke bowls and sandwiches were also mega for takeaway options.

It was my first ever trip in Irland and Cork was a great introduction. I first visited the Nano Nagle Centre, then went up to Shanagarry for the night, had an amazing dinner at Ballymaloe before moving on to Blarneythe following day. Rising Sons Brewery is a great venue and the brewery tour is very interesting. Maureen's is also a great bar, very comfortable and the decoration is enchanting. Finally, Blarney Castle and Gardens are amazing.

Lots of hustle and bustle, there were a good amount of street entertainers/ buskers. A good selection of shops. The energy was great overall. I noticed a lot more homeless people than the last time I was there. A strong smell of pee from some of the streets.

We stayed in Cork because it was central to other things we wanted to see. That was a mistake. Cork is just a big city. Not overly pretty, not much to do. The English Market is very active and interesting. There are many restaurants and bars. We accidentally booked an apt on a busy street, and it was noisy all night. I wouldn't recommend anybody visit Cork.

The city is very clean and tidy.
The city is very clean and tidy. A visit to the stunning University College of Cork and the lovely Fitzgerald Park can take about half a day each as they are both so amazing. There is a public museum and cafe in Fitzgerald Park. There are many lovely views of the River Lee both in the city centre and around. There are lots of green spaces and the people were friendly. I only went for 3 days on a business trip but would have liked to have spent much more time there to see the other sights of interest such as the Blarney Castle, Cork Goal and Cobh - where the lovely coloured painted houses are. Two weeks in Cork would be ideal for me.
The heart and soul of the hotel is its staff--so helpful, so thoughtful, so engaging, so personable, and most of all, so supportive and encouraging to my 88-year-old mother, who has limited mobility. The trip to Ireland was one of her last trips on her bucket list before she is unable to travel. A son's love has limits. The entire hotel staff, but especially the restaurant staff, gave her what I could not. Collectively, they hugged on my mother as if she was their own. Our stay was so special.
The property itself was more secluded than expected but still in a lovely area. It’s definitely a stay for someone who is not pushed about being in the heart of the city centre.
The staff were also some of the most accommodating, friendly and helpful that I have ever encountered in a hotel. They will go above and beyond and are certainly one of the main reasons I’ll be back.
Fantastic hospitality, highly recommend it! As a family of 14 we stayed for 2 nights and the location was great, very convenient to the city centre, and if you're by car, they're a car park straight across from the apartment. Q-park St Finbarr's. The staff was very helpful, and accommodating. Thanks, everyone :)
The hotel is at an excellent location, close to the university and just a short walk away from the city centre. The room itself was spacious and clean, very comfortable and with all commodities, and the hotel is very modern and stylish. Friendly and helpful staff, and we were very satisfied with our stay.
A great location just on the North side of city centre over looking the River Lee and Port of Cork. It's in walking distance of most sites in Cork City, the buss & train station as well. The timing of our stay worked out so that we can see the Cork Marathon and the Dragon Boat races from our room!
Location was perfect as was the hotel. We decided not to have the breakfast as we thought it was a little pricey. But we were quite surprised to se that breakfast in the city centre was the same price or more. Next time we stay more than likely we will book breakfast aswell.
Our room was on the main floor. Breakfast was good. Nice hot selections, especially the french toast which was delicious. Location was accessible and walking distance to the Cork City Centre and right next to the Cork University College with their beautiful grounds.
We've stayed here before and hopefully will again. The staff is super attentive. The hotel is clean and well located in the Shandon area of Cork City. I love the large lobby where we can sit visit. Thanks for hosting the Mother Jones Festival - that's why we came.
The hotel is located 5 minutes' walk to Little Island train station and its only one stop to Cork City centre. The pool and spa facilities are excellent.
Our 2 kids got welcome bags on arrival, which I thought was great attention to detail..
Our stay at The Metropole was absolutely perfect! It is a beautiful hotel. Excellent location, we were able to walk around Cork city easily. The beds were amazing. All staff were very friendly. We would definitely stay here again.
Location excellent, rooms tiny but knew that on booking perfect for girly getaway , walking distance from train station. Fabulous cafes and restaurants mins away. Cocktails in hotel fab , walking distance from city centre.
I had a great stay here for one night. It's a fancy house that's more like a hotel. Nice bedroom with a view over the city, great breakfast, lovely staff. 10 minute walk into the city centre. Would definitely recommend
Great hotel in the bustling area with Cork City. Plenty of restaurants, cafes and pubs within a short walk and easy to be totally content. Would recoommend this hotel to other travelers as well!
Good location, walk distance from Cork city centre. Parking is available at the train station opposite the hotel, it was 9 euros a day I think. Clean room with comfortable beds.
Great hotel and great value for what you get these days (expensive but in the ballpark for cork city)
Hope it stays that way
