    Shower in bedroom very awkward. Handrail extended out into space for showering. Long walk to get to furthest rooms.

    Excellent location. Amazing comfortable bed. Breakfast expensive if you only want a continental.

    The lovely Cork staff, so pleasant and chatty.. Great entertainment, even though it was early in the week, which started at 9pm, which was fantastic. .

    strange layout, to go to our room we had to go up one floor in the lift, walk all the way down a corridor and get another lift to go up another floor and walk again down a long corridor

    Overall very good stay. Very friendly staff, we had a very big room, the hotel is close to pubs and restaurants. Nice pool and also separate kids pool

    The room decor is outdated and could use a refresh. No robes or slippers provided. No place to sit or relax around the pool. The breakfast buffet can get a little cramped due to its location in a corner of the dining room. Overall, quite expensive for what's on offer.

    Friendly, welcoming staff. Right on the harbor so lovely views and a short stroll to the town. Good restaurant.

    We didn't like that we had to change lifts to go to our room from reception. The bed kept coming apart and as I get segers from epilepsy which I get every night

    We Friday night and Saturday night. The bar was pretty full but we enjoyed and the breakfast especially good

    Being at the front we found the road noise loud. The room was exceptionally warm for summer so it was a choice of windows open and louder noise or closed and less noise but still noticeable. It’s also a big step out of the bath/shower.

    The room was lovely, clean, and the bed comfortable. The pool area was relaxing. The views from the room were great.

    Not much. Could have more facilities and activities for children in terms of the kids club during the day. A soft play area could be a great addition.

    Excellent food quality and very good staff. Swimming pool a hit and superb location

    Room information on services within the hotel could be more obvious. It was hard to find and only realised it was on the TV (though you’d need to read quickly to catch info) at the end of our stay.

    Sadly the leisure experience left us down a bit.for a 2nd trip in a row we have taken here the pool was taken over by rowdy teenagers.without being a killjoy you pay f or a relaxing time.leisure staff never manned or attempted to restore a bit of order.

    Reception , bar and breakfast service was very good.the bedrooms were very clean and comfortable.
