This hotel was absolutely incredible! If you’re on the fence just book it… you won’t regret it. The room was spacious and clean. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and the food and cocktails were exceptional! I wish I had booked more than one night and will definitely recommend this hotel. 10 out of 10!!

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
Very dark hallways, lights not on during day or night time. Rooms especially bathrooms are outdated. Breakfast is average. Expected more for the star rating and price.

This is our second staying at the River Lee and had a wonderful time. The hotel is centrally located overlooking a river and close to some great pubs and restaurants.

I really liked the property. it was set up nice. Location was very convienent to Cork Centre. The staff was excellent, especially at the hotel front desk. They a front desk staffer " Maeve " she was outstanding efficient and very pleasent.
The hotel would have gotten five stars, if they didn't have so much rug in the halls and rooms. I would have preferred more hard flooring.

Absolute class hotel. It is gorgeous and impeccably clean, in a great location, and the staff is wonderful. We really enjoyed our stay and were sad it was only for one night. We want to return to Cork and this will be the only hotel we book!

Nice walkable location but not in the center of town. I love having access to the executive lounge but I didn’t really use it that much. I didn’t get a chance to use my access to the adjacent health club but it was a nice amenity to have. Ryan the front desk attendant at my check out was great.

Nice place. Would definitely stay here again. Cozy accommodations - very fan$y restaurant with few options.
All the soap/shampoo/lotion - freebies contain lemon and citrus - good unless you're allergic (one of our party was) - but safely avoided them.

We had a very leaky shower that required us to put down 2 bath mats to keep the floor from getting soaked when we showered.
House keeping was great!
We requested robes and slipper for use to go to the pool and after an hour called to see if they were bringing them and the said they would send someon up with them. After another half hour we just went to the pool and changed there as we wasted time waiting.
