"Great stay at the heart of cork city"

8.0

Excellent location in the heart of cork city with plenty of great restaurants and pubs within a stones throw distance. Staff were very friendly, chatty and helpful and there was a very cosy Christmas vibe around. Room was spacious, clean and comfortable. While the hotel is located in the centre of the city, we were not disturbed by any street noise and had a great night sleep. The only reason the hotel the hotel did not get the five stars for me was the parking issue, The sign for the car park which no longer says its the metropole hotel car park said it was full and we were only told at checking in (and after parking the car at a nearby carpark for the night) that spaces are kept for guests.

"Rooms smaller than advertised."

8.0

This hotel is stunning and the location is perfect. Unfortunately, the size of the rooms shown on the website does not give a true indication of the actual size of the room. I booked a Signature room based on the Otterman at the end of the bed and assuming there would be extra space. My wife and i had room 207 and this room was super small and no Otterman at the end of the bed. If there was to be an Otterman at the end of the bed, we would have had to climb over it to get into the bathroom. I enquired at reception if we did have a Signature room and was told we did. I would not like to experience a Cosy City room as i believe this will be super small. I do believe that the photo's advertising the rooms on the website are not in line with the actual size of the room and creating a false expectation. Other than this, the Metropole Hotel is wonderful.
