      "Good Family Value" Reviewed by Brian B. of "New York, NY" on Mar 25, 2012

      Corbett Court is listed as a luxury B&B and it fits the description. We had a family style room with a double bed and two singles with plenty of room to spare (the pictures on line a very accurate). We had college age kids with us, and all thought it was great. Large, clean, private bathroom. Location is perfect as a base or when stopping for the night between Cork/Waterford/Cashel/Kilkenny. It is not however a destination point close to a significant village with many pubs/restaurants. On site restaurant is a good family value for dinner and breakfast. We would definitely stay here again!

      "Kinsale is wonderful" Reviewed by Terence D of "Taylor" on Oct 19, 2009

      We had been recommended to stay here by family and were not disappointed. Kinsale is a wonderful, small seaside town, and the Perryville House is absolutely delightful. The hosts were extremely attentive and made the stay special. We were put in a huge corner room with a view of the harbor, and while larger, all the rooms seemed to be generous in size. Many of the rooms overlooked a delightful small internal garden. While there is only a very nice breakfast served, it is near the heart of the town and restaurants and pubs are so numerous it is hard to choose from. We highly recommend this venue, and recommend you spend more than one night her. We were glad we spent two nights.

    We spent three nights there on the tail end of a 10-day stay in Ireland. Loved the location. Great internet access throughout the hotel ~ not just the... lobby. There was a lot we could have walked to (shopping, dining), but we were tracing some genealogy and used the hotel as a base for side trips to Ladysbridge, Courtmacsherry, Cobh and Yougal. Great place to come back to after long days driving and traipsing through graveyards. Food was good in the bar. (Little too pricey in the main dining room.) by Sandi  from Laguna Hills, CA on 05/18/13

    A short guide to Cork

    Ireland's second-largest city was the European Capital of Culture in 2005. Cork's buildings date from medieval to modern times and include such landmarks as the medieval Red Abbey to the city's most famous, the church tower of Shandon. St. Patrick St., the main pedestrian shopping area, is curved because it was originally the channel of the River Lee.

    I decided to stay at the River Lee Hotel as I had previously stayed when it went under the Jurys name. I thought quite highly of it in the past but was bitterly dissappointed upon my stay this time. We were assigned a room at the end of the hotel with asmall window and I found this rather annoying as I prefer lots of light and tend to choose hotels […] that are bright as a result. When asked if we could change rooms we were told we could not be accomodated. Also, we were informed upon arrival that the restaurant was booked out by Christmas party revellers so the pub was the only option for food. When we went to the pub we found it also packed out with more Christmas party revellers and so we had no choice but to order room service and had to pay for the privilage despite not being accomodated in either the pub or restaurant. We ate out the second night. Also, it may be a small detail but there were no biscuits to go with the tea/coffee facilities. I know in previous years they would supply Walkers shortbread and it stuck out in my mind as one of the better offerings. However now even 2 and 3 star hotels have better offerings. Hotel cleanliness was good. Staff were friendly and the location is good.Overall, however, I felt that the Christmas parties were given priority in the hotel and actual guests had to suffer as a result. I cant say I'll be returning in future unless things seriously improve. Read more

    The hotel sits on the river, and so its perfect for relaxing with a drink. Its just outside Downtown Cork. So, it remains quiet, but it is easy to get into the pubs and shops. Its wireless is complementary, and both the bar and the restaurant are good places for down time.

    The River Lee Hotel was the perfect choice for our stay in Cork! The rooms and public spaces are very clean and comfortable, our evening in the bar was very enjoyable, and the hotel is in a quaint, quiet location along the river. There are a number of sights within a 10 minute stroll, and just 5 minutes more gets you into the city center. After parking […] in Dublin, having the parking included for hotel guests was an especially welcome amenity. The only negative was the cost of breakfast, so we ventured out of the hotel. Definitely do not miss the nearby, and very delightful, Flying Enterprise Complex for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Denis will take great care of you there! Read more

    We arrived a day earlier than we were booked and the reception staff quickly found us a room for the night and greeted us with hot towels for refreshing ourselves after travel. Take advantage of breakfast vouchers for 12.50 per person. Good deal. Attentive waitstaff in restaurant and bar. Emplyees were informed and helpful in booking tours and making […] suggestions. This staff is always checking in on its guests. Being someone who appreciates the little things, I was so pleased when offered iced water bottles for our departure journey. This hotel is WELL managed. Read more

    Very nice high end hotel. Very good ambiance. We stayed in a family room, (3 single beds), and the room was large enough and comfortable enough for the three of us. Food was very good. Pool is open to memberships to the town and this meant lots of general public in the pool, not very geared to hotel guests.

    We stayed here for 3 nights on a family holiday. We absolutely love this hotel. The set up is modern, clean and sophisticated without being stuffy! We booked an adjoining room as we had a family of 4 (2 adults, 2 children). The prices are great for the quality. You are within blocks of the university, parks, and the city center. No need for a car. The […] hotel itself was very accommodating and the front desk staff were professional & helpful for any requests. The best part about my stay is I'm on a special gluten free diet and the hotel had my special gluten free bread on their menu!!! I was able to eat their wonderful buffet style breakfast without sacrificing my toast! And, their buffet breakfast was great, the best eggs I've ever eaten. The bar has a great view and great food. You'll definitely love this place if you are planning a stay in Cork! Read more

    I travelled to Cork for a meeting and the city was quite nice - the organizers explained selecting Cork over several other locations because of available facilities and reasonable costs. The meeting was at the Clarion, but it was fully booked, so my next choice was the River Lee. That resulted in a good 20-25 minute walk every day to the meeting, thus […] convenience of location was OK, but not great. Otherwise, the River Lee was outstanding, very nice room, flat screen TV, roomy, and clean with cabled internet service. Everyone was friendly and the pub/lounge was a nice place for a pint and light meal. Read more

    We were a bit disappointed with the actual room: too sterile and plain. Even though there were 2 of us, we only got 1 set of towels and 1 set of toiletries. The 1st night, I called the reception at midnight, and asked for some toothpaste and toothbrushes. I was told they were out of these for about a week. As I was puzzled by this answer, I asked if […] they could get it somewhere else, to which the receptionist sent me off to a Londis. Not the answer I was hoping to hear. 5-10 minutes, I got a call informing me they actually had these toothpaste/toothbrush sets and that they'd bring 2 to our room. Minutes later, they brought 1 (!) set to our room. The following morning, I had to call the reception to get a shaving set. I called at around 8 am, and was told they would bring one up. About 20 minutes later, It was still not there. I had to call the reception once again, to remind that I was waiting for over 20 mins for my shaving set. It finally arrived about 10 mins later. Later I went to have some breakfast, and was greeted by a hostess who actually asked not just my room number, but also if the breakfast was included, which I thought was odd. The buffet was ok, the service was ok but felt a bit impersonal. The glass I used for orange juice turned out chipped and cracked! Overall, the hotel is ok, but the service throughout the hotel felt cold. Little failures added up over our stay and I'm not sure I would stay at this hotel again. Read more
