What people say

peacefulness. I didn't realize we were getting a suite which was a welcomed surprise. The suite was huge with a very large sitting area, including two full sized leather couches (with pullout trundle beds beneath) and a table for four, and a clean, modern kitchen area (microwave, fridge, oven/stove). The bedroom was a good sized room with one king size bed and two twin beds. The bathroom had a fantastic shower.

all reviews

Having stayed there previously, and being in Cobh a couple of times a year, it's The Hotel I will look to book before any other. Comfort, friendliness of staff, a very good chinese restaurant, and just down the hill to the seafront, make it a lovely place to stay.I loved the open fire in the bar area. It was very inviting.hotel was a short walk down to waterfront. Would stay here again,our room well equiped suite with view over cathedral. Staff very helpful and good breakfast.It is handy for the town centre, a short 10 minute walk (although it includes a steep hill but that is the nature of Cobh). All staff we encounted were friendly and helpful.Nice room, very basic. Kind staff once you get their attention.Plenty of space in rooms. The price was a bit steep for my liking (about $186 per night) but Ireland is expensive in general. The location (perfect!), size of suite, and the great staff made up for it.I loved everything about the hotel. If I was to add anything i would add some pub food even toasted sandwiches or something similiar.Everything was fine and more or less as expected.confusing decor, need to stick to one theme. staff need to pay more attention to guests.The twin bedroom was not warm enough. My room was appaling, old furniture,no flat screen tv, bedding was poor,room could of been cleaner. The hotel restaurant was a Chinese, which had ok food. My point was I don't want to eat chinese every night!!!. The hotel was expensive for the standard I experienced. The owner did try to resolve my complaint at the time.But after a bad night and freezing to death, I decided to relocate.
