Fabulous hotel and location for visiting Cork
Pros:

We were in a room on the 2nd floor. Everything was very nice in the room but it was dark. Our window was masked so had no natural light and limited fresh air as the window only opened slightly. I would stay at the Maldron again but would want a room with a view and natural light

Cons:

The fact the window had no view or natural light

Average, definitely not worth £200+ for one nights stay.
Pros:

The location was good, a short walk from the pubs/shops. Complementary water in the room was nice to see. Beds were clean/comfortable.

Cons:

The check in wasn’t smooth, the key cards were temperamental, the room wasn’t as clean as it could of been for over £200 for the night, security didn’t have us on the list so had to speak to reception to be let in to get to our room.

Correcta
Pros:

El desayuno muy completo.
A la hora de realizar el chek in era automático y no hay necesidad de esperar.
Zona muy céntrica.

Cons:

Tenemos la sensación de que nos hicieron la habitación deprisa y mal porque cuando llegamos solo habían colocado el edredón (y encima mal puesto)
Les dejamos las toallas para cambiarlas y nos encontramos las mismas mal dobladas y encima faltaba una.
