Bed and Breakfast Kent House B&B
47 Lower Glanmire Road, Cork, Ireland – Great location - show map
John and Lorraine were outstanding hosts! They were accommodating with our early check in, made a great breakfast every morning, kept our room clean and were great fun to talk to! The location was fantastic, just a 15 minute walk to anywhere in Cork City center and across the street from the train station and close to the bus station for easy day trips.

How comfortable our hosts made us. They were a joy to chat with and were there to help us with plans or maps. Breakfast was wonderful, simple but good. We truly enjoyed our stay. And it is close to the train and bus station.

Lorraine and John were so helpful, it was wonderful. They helped us book train tickets back to Dublin, saving us money and providing us with reserved seats. They had lots of good recommendations about what to do and how to get around. The breakfasts were delicious. Our room was very nice -- warm and cozy, but spacious enough for us. And the location by the train station was very convenient, as we were mainly getting around by train. We'll definitely stay at Kent House again next time we're in Cork.

Liked that they had all the same amenities as an expensive hotel. Fluffy towels, wonderful bedding, hair dryer, face clothes (some hotels don't provide these) ironing board, safe, fridge, little shampoo bottles, etc. But paid half the money!

Enjoyed breakfast a irish breakfast , BED Excellent shower excellent

Lorraine and John were lovely. Gave good advice about where to go and what to see. The place was extremely clean and really central so we could walk to a lot of places. The places we couldn’t walk to we were right by the train station so we could jump on a train.

John and Lorraine are most gracious hosts. Large comfortable room. Although an old building the room was modernised with every comfort. First class bedding and towels. Amazing breakfasts made by Lorraine. Our hosts are also very knowledgeable about what to see and do in Cork and surrounds. Everything within walking distance.

Everything was all right. Great place, near to city center. Very tasty breakfast. Friendly helpful and kind staff- Lorraine and John. Thank you very much.

Great breakfast, my daughter loved the porridge and the boiled eggs were perfect. Hosts were very friendly and helpful.

John and Lorraine were super friendly with really good advice about the area. Superb breakfast made fresh to order and Lorraine's homemade oat cookies were yummy! Fabulous sleep in extra comfy bed 😊
