The good- Front desk staff was great, location was central and walkable to food, shops, waterfront. Room was comfy. The drop to good from excellent- crumbs all over the 2 chairs in the room (so not cleaned), air conditioner kept going off, vending machine that had electric adapters didn’t dispense, construction all in front made a 2 minute walk a 15 minute drive, no one gave us where to park prior to check in- so back in car for more crazy directions to get to garage.

Best sleep

The bed in my room had the comfiest mattress in the world. I liked the layout of my spacious room. Service was great, i forgot a shaver and they had them free of charge. The only issue for me was the parking a bit far from the hotel.

The hotel’s location is fantastic — central, convenient, and walkable to everything we needed. That alone made our stay manageable. However, several issues would make me choose a different place next time, especially given how many other hotel options are in the area. The biggest downside was the noise. The building seems to be constructed in a way that every door closing or slamming echoed loudly into our room, even late at night. It made it difficult to fully relax or get a solid night’s sleep. Temperature control was also a problem. The thermostat in our room was broken, so we had to rely on the front desk to adjust it remotely, which never actually set it to a comfortable level. It always felt off —way too cool — and we had no way to fix it ourselves. Cleanliness was another concern. While nothing was outright filthy, it clearly hadn’t been cleaned thoroughly. My son was playing with Legos on the floor and kept getting other people’s hair tangled in the wheels — more than once. That’s something that shouldn’t happen in any hotel room. Finally, for what the hotel offers, it felt overpriced. The amenities didn’t match the rate, especially compared to what else is available nearby. All in all, while the location is excellent, the noise, temperature issues, and lack of cleanliness mean I wouldn’t stay here again. With so many options in the area, it’s worth looking elsewhere.

Cork itself is a gritty city. There is no way this hotel is a 4⭐️. I’ve seen a hotel before that had a “check in kiosk”. Rooms were basic- no toiletries in the room. Shampoo and conditioner were in bottles hung on the wall in the shower. Daily made service was incomplete and poorly done. Staff themselves were lovely and very helpful. I would not stay here again and I would not recommend it. Poor value - almost $1200 CAD for 3 nts. Not worth it.

Location is great if you're here for shopping or an event in downtown, the hotel has kids camp from 5-9 pm which was unique. Breakfast was great. Only issue was that the rooms in the 1st for are below ground for (basement), and was noisy in the morning!

There were major problems at this Maldron hotel. I note mainly the AC. If the window is open, the AC doesn’t work - that’s entirely ok. EXCEPT the AC doesn’t work with the window closed either - and indeed the room was extremely hot and stuffy - easily the worst night’s sleep in 10 days in Ireland. Also, the lighting malfunctioned. The room card had to be left in the key slot for lights to be on - this was fine, except that one bright light refused to turn off. The Front Desk person visited our room and confirmed that the light could not be turned off. His solution was to take key out of slot. He said this would not affect the AC. And indeed it didn’t affect the AC because the AC never worked anyway. The best thing about the hotel was that 2 workers at the restaurant, one from Ukraine and another country, were so hospitable and helpful. Other than these two staff members (and the desk person who tried but failed to fix the lighting), the hotel staff was basically unfriendly and unhelpful. Charitably, I concluded that they might be good people - just not people with people skills, but regardless - they were unhelpful. Oh, and we paid for Executive Room with king bed - every hotel room should be good, but especially rooms for which premium price is charged. When in Cork, stay elsewhere!
