The B&B was in a great location to walk to the city, and the outdoor patio on the river was great to relax with a drink. We asked about the fishing rods that the listing said they had, but unfortunately the hosts said they were stolen from the property so you need to bring your own.

Savannah United States of America

We arrived late evening on Saturday and we were brought in and given our room and all the information you could want about the property. Very welcoming. Room was compact, clean, well maintained and comfortable. Ideal for what we needed. If you're visiting Cork city it's well located and is directly across from the main gates of UCC.

Pat Ireland

I am from Turkey came to Cork for doing my master degree. I was looking for somewhere to stay a couple days while waiting passing my student accommodation. I saw a very cheap price and cosy place like that. My experience was perfect. Room was clean and very warm. It was en suite room that is good. Staff were nice and kind to me. Lovely experience and highly recommend you. Thanks for all. Faik Anil Sezer.

great location for easy access to the city, and next door to the college

Shawna Ireland

Loved the warm and cozy room. Great location. We were able to walk to dinner and to a fun pub to listen to live music.

Carmen United States of America

The hosts were very flexible. The lodging is comfortable and stylish. The location is great - it's right next to the university, with the city centre and an assortment of pubs and restaurants a short walk away. It's also a short walk away from major attractions like the Elizabeth fort.

One of our best sellers in Cork! On the banks of the River Lee, Shandon Bells offers bright, classically furnished rooms with LCD TVs, and full Irish breakfasts. Guests can enjoy on-site private fishing on the river.

Each room includes satellite channels on its wall-mounted LCD TV, as well as free WiFi access. There is a private bathroom and hairdryer, along with tea/coffee facilities and welcome sweets.

Guests at Shandon Bells Guest House can order a buffet breakfast or hearty full Irish breakfasts for a surcharge.

The famous English Market in Cork is just a 10-minute walk away. The main entrance of University College Cork is less than a minute's walk away, and the bustling shops and restaurants of St Patrick’s Street are only 15 minutes’ walk away.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8.6 for a two-person trip.

We offer a warm welcome to our lovely residence, with a cup of coffee or tea in the dining room.

Mostly we enjoy our patio on the back of the house with beautiful and relaxing view. We care very much about comfort so we are always improving facilities and rooms

Location is spot on! From Patrick Street turn left into Grand Parade and then right into Washington Street. Go straight ahead along Lancaster Quay and Western Road. Walking distance from the city centre is 12 minutes. University Cork College is across the street and few restaurants and bars are very close. Popular places to visit within walking distance are St Fin Barre's Cathedral, Elisabeth Fort and The English Market.
