Pros:

Wow! The staff and amenities were very impressive. Excellent first impression at check-in. The hotel operates a free cinema for guests which plays movies regularly, including new releases. It was an unexpected amenity and we really enjoyed it. The room was comfortable - no complaints.

Cons:

The location isn’t ideal if you want to get to/from Cork on foot - it is located high in the hills overlooking the city. That said, the hotel more than makes up for this in every other department.
