    The food in the restaurant is incredible, morning or evening. The staff there were lovely and friendly, especially the chap in the band called 'Fíor'; he was so kind to our kids. The pool is clean, warm and child friendly. The hotel itself is huge so never felt too busy. The cocktails are lovely too!!

    We were driving from Dublin and booked on our way. It was a last minute booking. Everything was so exceptional and amazing. I ven though we arrived late the host was super prepared and organised so we did not have any problems. Pet friendly and child friendly property. Our daughter was super happy when she found the cupboard for kids that is full of toys. ❤️ Definitely will stay again on our next trip to Cork.

    Staff are so friendly and helpful. The hotel is extremely family friendly which we really appreciated as it was our first time going away with our (7 month old) baby - high chair, travel cot, baby food etc. all catered for. Teddy bear provided as a gift was a really lovely touch. We stayed in a junior suite and it was fabulous - we even had our own Christmas tree!
