Lovely room.
Although they charged me for breakfast even though on my Roomex reservation it stated Bed & Breakfast.
So disappointed in the way this was handled.

The hotel itself is well situated and an easy walk to the airport. The little slope up to the door to pull your bags up on is a bit small, but it works.
The biggest problem I had was very weak mobile phone signal in my room, so had to sit in reception to make my phonecalls, which was not convenient. There is free wifi in all the rooms, it is easy to connect to and so skyping and emailing are all easy to do.There seemed to be a lot of TV channels, but I didn't watch any. The room service prices looked okay too, although I didnt eat there.
My room was cold and turning up the temperature on the air conditioning didnt make a difference. The vanity mirror fell apart in my hand, but I screwed it back together again and a bulb in a wall light was not working.
I was checking out at 5am, so didnt' bother to ask anyone to fix the things for me. When I checked out the gentleman at reception was very apologetic and said that although I had paid for the room via roomex, so he could not reduce the price, he had put a note on the datebase that I would be upgraded for my next stay. I was both surprised and pleased that he took my complaints so seriously.
I would go back there again, although might ask for a room with good mobile phone signal next time.

I can't believe this is an airport hotel!!! It is the coolest hotel I have stayed in bar far. We stayed here for one night for our friend's Wedding. Considering what we paid for the room including breakfast this place is a real little gem.
On arrival to the hotel we were met by staff shielding us with umbrellas from the rain. I was immediately impressed. The staff are so friendly. The Wedding ceremony was held at the hotel as well so we spent the entire day there. The decor of the hotel is indescribable really; one has to see it to appreciate the coolness. I would definitely recommend this place!
The only one criticism and this is trivial is the residence bar. The bar is mostly cornered off and only a small section is opened. It is probably not even worth mentioning this!

I stayed here last weekend for one night as I had an early morning flight from Cork Airport but I wish I could have stayed longer. It is probably the most comfortable hotel that I've ever stayed in ( and I've stayed in many :) Modern, bright, stylish, extremely comfortable and the hotel staff were very pleasant. Free shuttle bus to the airport also included. We didn't have breakfast as our flight was so early but we were offered coffee before we left. If you're looking for the hotel equivalent of the X-Factor ..... this is it.....this hotel has the WOW factor :)

We stayed on two nights, one before we started our holiday in South America, and one night before our journey back home to Kerry. Both rooms were clean, comfortable and well up to standard expected. The staff were helpful and friendly. The breakfast was OK, not fantastic, but OK. Personally I do not like buffet breakfasts as the food usually has been there for some time. This Hotel, however, wins on the convenience and courtesy bus service which is fantastic.
