Gabriel House Guesthouse  

Sobretot ens ha agradat les instal·lacions I el personal de l'hotel. Malgrat que quan arribeu us pot semblar que la pujada cap a l'hotel és molt dura no us deixeu enganyar. L'hotel està a prop del centre I sempre va bé una caminadeta després de sopar!

excellent property more hotel than b/b, friendly professional staff, lovely breakfast,amble on site parking though withing walking distance of centre great value for money.

Nice and clean room, especially the bathroom was new and clean. Breakfast ok, but served only till 10.30 (even on Sunday!)

The guset house is located on a hill so it's not very comfortable to get there, also the car park is quite steep. The area around the guest house is a bit scary especially during the night time, on my way back to guest house I was a bit afraid.

A great place to stay, honest and without frills or trying to be something it isn't. Very pleasant staff indeed. Excellent location close to city centre, and first class breakfast and unlimited team and home-made biscuits. Our first visit, but there will be more in the future, and we have recommended the hotel to others. And no, we aren't being paid to say this!

The staff were very helpful on arrival we were given information on restaurants and bars, we availed of free coffee and tea at anytime. Staff were relaxed about check out time, more of a hotel then guesthouse.

Our room was under the breakfast room quiet noisy in the morning time.

Staff were very nice and friendly. Breakfast was quite tasty. Location is great - 10min walk to city centre but nice quiet area, 3mins from train station.

It was a lovely comfortable place to stay and in a great setting, near to the train station and near to the centre of the city and yet a few minutes walk away from the hustle and bustle. The girls working there were all extremely helpful and welcoming. The rooms were clean with very nice bathrooms and a particularly nice shower. The guesthouse is on a hill so you have a lovely view of the city. There was a water fountain and a drinks machine in the lobby which is very handy. I thought it was good value for money as it has the comfort of a hotel with a B & B feel in that it is very personal and friendly. The girl at reception (didn't get her name) was very helpful to us as I was running the Cork marathon and could come back after the race and collect my bags and change in our old unchanged room, I appreciate that very much!!

The only thing I would fault is that the room walls are very thin and you can hear everything, I had come down to run a marathon and wanted a quiet night but didnt get it due to occupants noise next door, it wasnt that they were overly noisy but that walls were too thin. I dont think I would have minded too much if I hadnt been anxious to sleep because there wasnt a sound otherwise. My two other companions didnt sleep either because of noise next door, (snoring in one and hanky panky in the other!!) and we had to be up at six, nevertheless we had a great time, I had a great race so we enjoyed it and had a good laugh about it afterwards!!

If you're looking for somewhere that's not a traditional b&b and not hotel chain then this is your place. Clean friendly and everything you need without the nosey landlady !! Highly recommended and the eggs Gabriel are good too.

The walk up the hill from the city centre could be tough for some, but at least it's exercise !!

1St impression was good and building bigger than expected. Receptionist was very friendly and professional (Very attractive too so I could biased!). Felt very welcome and all the staff were professional and friendly and a credit to the owner. Room was great with everything you need for a short stay and has been been refurbished, flat screen tv and bathroom has very modern tiling and fittings. Asked for a quiet room as was very tired after long week and was attending a conference, slept very well as walls are well insulated and no traffic noise so was very happy for quiet room request had been exceeded. Would highly recommend this hotel and will stay again. Bettter than a lot of 3 star hotels Ive stayed in and I doubt it could be beated in Cork for value

My Wife & I stayed at Gabriel House last weekend and couldnt fault it - This is a gem of a find - We were so surprised at the standard of service provided, the quality of the rooms, value for money and above all else the friendliness and helpfulness of all the staff - Kathleen , the lady serving breakfasts ( beautifully cooked and presented and what a choice! ) in fact everyone involved. We would certainly stay again at Gabriel and recommend this guest house as being the best you could wish for. Situated on a hill the location is good with a short walk into Cork A vist to the local hostelry - Henchys - can be quite dangerous however !! and result in a late night and a headache in the morning - well worth a visit to mix with the locals though - a real old pub with a nice ambience and some very interesting people.

Everything perfect

Breakfast ++ Bed ++ Bathroom ++ Nice view if you have the chance to get the view on the city Walking center to city centre

Phonic isolation wasn't good (we don't hear the street noise but the people in other rooms)

Location to Cork city centre is excellent. The guesthouse is excellent value and maintained in a highly efficient and professional manner.

The friendliness of the Staff especiall Valerie. Very relaxed easy going atmosphere and exceedingly helpful.

Nothing I didn't like and I've stayed there a number of times over the past few months
