Coolea Vacation Packages

Superb hotel on all counts. The breakfast buffet was truly memorable, with delicious blood sausages and bangers to go along with eggs and coffee in the morning. The bar area was friendly and convenient, as well as the hotel restaurant. The hotel is within walking distance (3-5 mins.) of the bus station that can take one to the Dublin Airport (Lufthansa canceled my direct flight from Frankfurt to Cork, so I had to fly to Dublin instead, wherein I took a 3:30 hr. bus to Cork). It is also within walking distance of the Grand Parade, a vibrant cultural and historical center where there are multiple restaurants, pubs, stores, and places to visit. If I return to Cork, I will return to this hotel again, for sure.

Beautiful property. Friendly staff. Loved the pool, hot tub, sauna and workout room. Close to a lot of great restaurants

This is an old hotel that is being updated. My room was completely modern as was the bath. Both the room and bath had opening windows! The location is great, about 7 minutes walk from the train station, 5 minutes to the bus station and 5-10 minutes to the city center. The only glitch I encountered was when I tried to take the stairs instead of the one elevator - that's when I discovered that not all of the hotel has been renovated yet. The pathway to use the stairs was a bit disjointed and involved two different sets of stairs that seemed to be from two different eras.

Scenery and staff were beyond excellent

An absolute gem of a place. Perfect location. Truly outstanding staff. Every single person working there was extremely polite, professional and charming. Fantastic bar and restaurant. I will recommend this hotel to everyone I know.
