The Metropole Hotel

My recent stay st the Metropole Hotel was fantastic, the room was clean, quiet and spacious, the staff were friendly and knowledgeable, and the location was perfect for visiting Cork, I highly recommend this hotel for your stay in Cork

Would highly recommend the Metropole hotel. Great location great service and very accommodating staff. Fantastic breakfast. Rooms comfortable and spotless👌

The hotel itself was clean, comfortable, and beautifully maintained, with a relaxing atmosphere throughout. Thanks to Emily she was very kind and helpful.

I went to Metropole Hotel with my husband to celebrate my 65th birthday. The hotel is in an excellent location - just a few minutes walk from the CityLink bus stop and a 10 minute walk to City Centre. The staff are all so friendly, helpful and professional. The lobby is so comfortable. The bedroom was equipped with all we asked for along with a nice surprise for my birthday. I could not fault either our evening meal or breakfast.

Great two night stay in the heart of the city. The Metropole hotel has undergone a massive renovation but has managed to keep it's old world elegance with new world comfort. Each and every member of staff were extremely professional but had a warmth that made you feel relaxed the moment you opened the front door of the hotel.

Going from the bus station to the train station & feeling peckish, I treated myself to cappuccino & pancakes. Thoroughly enjoyed.

The location was convenient but with that came some extra noise from the street. Room was dated and stuffy, even with the radiator turned off. For the price we had higher expectations of comfort and service. It was surprising that nobody helped initially with luggage on arrival and not at all on departure.

Charming romantic hotel in a great area. Buy the breakfast package, it’ll keep you going all day. And stop by the bar at the end of the day. The hotel is in easy walking distance from train and bus stations and is just across the bridge from city center. Just wonderful.

Lot f noise from the street but over all nice hotel excellent staff great fiod best breakfast in cork hands down will stay again

I have NEVER, in all my travels, had such a horrible experience with a hotel. I booked 2 rooms through Capital One Travel and had confirmation from the travel site and the hotel. When I arrived at the hotel at 5 pm on a Thursday, I was told the reservation was canceled. They could not tell me who canceled it and said the hotel was fully booked and there was nothing they could do. We spent an hour calling hotels in Cork City. Nothing available. We finally found a BNB and had to drive 45 minutes into the countryside. I called the hotel later that night to ask them to look into this. They hung up on me. I have emailed them several times to ask for an explanation. NO RESPONSE. Is this how far this hotel has dropped under the "leadership" of the new general manager, Louise McNamara? I suspect that there was some event (and that's why everything was fully booked) and they simply canceled me because I used a third party payer. AND the room was already paid through Capital One and they did not reimburse me until I called Capital One Travel and got them involved. Now, I feel I must contact every hotel I book, even when I have a confirmation. Thanks Metropole to adding yet another task to my never-ending to do list. Unbelievably bad service! It's a shame becaue the hotel lobby and bar seemed just the type of upscale, historic property that I love, but I must say, DO NOT EVER stay at the Metropole Hotel in Cork City, Ireland!!
