"A great little city break"
My wife and I stayed at this hotel for three nights and loved it. We had a room with a balcony over looking the river which looks lovely at night. The hotel has a great bar with pleasant staff, giving customers a little dish of nuts with their drink. Cork itself is a lovely city with lots of bars, restaurants and also great shops, and the blarney stone just a bus ride away. A great little city break.

"always feel welcome and well looked after"
I had previously reviewed this hotel late last year less than favourably. However, I am pleased to report that it is back to its normal standard and I have no complaints. I do enjoy staying here and always feel welcome and well looked after. I only had to ask for something to find it was delivered to my room. It was helped by being upgraded to an executive suite, though. But thanks to all the staff and I look forward to staying again

"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*****

"...a fabulous night at our Kudos BBQ"
We had a fabulous night at our summer BBQ in Kudos and everybody enjoyed.  The food was superb.  Thanks for all your help and I’m sure we will organise another very shortly.

"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
