Loved the Clarion Cork City. Fantastic location only 5 mins from the shops and pubs. Our room was amazing, got upgraded to a suite. Windows floor to ceiling all around the room with an amazing view of Cork. It was really big and even held all our family (15 of us anyway) for champagne before celebrating my Grandmother's 80th birthday.... More

I stayed there in April and thought it was a lovely airy space - golden balls hanging from the roof and a massive central open space. The staff were very friendly rooms were just lovely. Nice pool. Had chance to taste some samples from the restaurant for free which was good. Easy to miss entrance to underground parking and diff... More

A lovely modern hotel in the heart of Cork. The rooms are spacious and have good amenities. The beds are a bit too firm and the pillows too flat for me, but decent. They have a nice bar that serves Asian cuisine. They have free wifi which was great. Check in and check out was efficient. Parking is tricky but... More

Clarion Hotel in Cork is a very nice place to spend time. It is located in the heart of the city and is one of the tallest buildings. Very nice people there, always smiling and ready to even guess your needs. Excellent rooms and restaurant, and, even I was told the restaurant is quite expensive, I was surprised to find... More

A modern hotel, very centrally located in Cork. There is parking in the underground car park for10 euros per day, although it can be difficult to find the entrance. Check with reception first. Very helpful staff. We had a huge room overlooking the river, although some of the rooms look out on to an internal atrium. The hotel has a... More
