Our Product

Clarins

Clarins travel the world to the remote corners of all five continents in the constant quest for plants with the most powerful active ingredients. They use the power of science to extract the natural beauty secret from the heart of each one, resulting in the purest, high quality and most effective botanicals.

Clarins Treatments are totally unique. They combine the power of the Clarins Touch – a specialised and skilful massage developed in the 1950s – with the purest plant extracts and aromatic essential oils. The result is a blissful sensory experience that addresses the way you look and feel. Exclusive formulas for professional use only.
For an intensive skin treatment and totally luxurious experience, look no further than Clarins Pro-Active formulas. Containing highly concentrated active plant extracts and aromatic oils, they have remarkable skin replenishing powers, which are boosted by Clarins Touch massage movements.

You’ll take home more than revitalised skin and a sense of well being. To help you prolong the benefits of your treatment, your therapist will recommend a daily skin care programme, products and application tips. All you need, in fact, to recreate the unique Clarins Skin Spa experience at home.

"Great weekend at Clarion"
Just back from a fabulous weekend in the Clarion Hotel Cork, the staff in the hotel were very friendly and very helpful (Sonya at reception was especially nice and Kevin in the leisure centre was very helpful). Our rooms were lovely and the food in both restaurants was delish. Couldn’t fault anything and cant wait to visit again.

"Lovely Staff"
I stayed for one night, the room was lovely and the staff friendly. I Left my glasses in the room when I checked out and the staff posted them to me free of charge after my stay.

"Pleasant Stay with exceptional staff"
Stayed for one night on business on 27th July 2011. Staff at check in, in the bar and at checkout were the most pleasant i have ever encountered. (global travel is part of my role). Dinner in the bar was good and reasonably priced. Overall it’s the staff that make this hotel one I would return to.

"Brilliant, clean, trendy hotel"
Booked the Clarion online, 2 nights for £180. We arrived to a very helpful and professional receptionist who helped us with all our needs. We were on the 5th floor, our room was a good size with a massive bed we also had a balcony that looked over the city. On our last night we ate at kudos, which is the hotels Asian restaurant, we had the dinner special which consisted of a starter, main and a drink for 25 Euros, it was great value for money. Overall I would recommend this hotel to my nearest and dearest....brilliant....5*****

"The penthouse is a great location"
The penthouse is a great location and the views are fabulous. It offers everything you need for a nice evening with colleagues or friends. You can bring your own entertainment and there is enough space even for a bigger group. The food was plentiful and enjoyed by all and everybody seemed to give positive feedback regarding the food. Tabita was excellent
