We stayed 3 nights at The River Lee and never wanted to leave. The hotel is beautiful, clean, spacious. Cozy nooks with comfy sofas and chairs to just lounge to enjoy a coffee or a drink. The staff were so friendly and helpful, the minute we pulled our car up to unload our bags, we had a porter right there to help us. Our room was spacious, beautiful and very clean. The food was omg delicious too! Highly recommend The River Lee Hotel!

Great location, an easy walk to St Finbar, the English Market and all the CBD stores. The NRG Gym was really good though the weekend hours open a little late for me. The restaurant and lobby lounge bar were really good, lots of choices at reasonable prices. My only complaint was the parking. On check in we had to circle the lot for 30 minutes. We would gladly stay here again though.

The service -- warmth, responsiveness, sense of humour -- of the staff were the best we have ever experienced. Ditto for the quality of the breakfast as well -- incredible variety of fresh, mostly locally sourced items so that even the continental option was an array of choices unlike any other of this type. Our room was luxurious: super comfy bed, gorgeous view, space, niceties in the room for making espresso, tea or regular coffee.

This hotel was beautiful! We stayed here for one one night in Cork but the staff was outstanding. Our room wasn’t quite ready when we arrived. Concierge kept our luggage and we received a free drink voucher for the bar and the drinks were phenomenal. Once our room was ready our bags were brought up for us and we were ready to go up. We also were given free waters for the road trip to our next destination. Great location, wonderful spacious bathroom. We loved it here!
