Ashley Hotel in Cork

I have absolutely nothing to complain about. The girls at the reception were lovely, and both the room and bathroom were very clean. It’s a budget hotel, so don’t expect 5 star service if you’re not paying for it. But honestly, it was perfect for our weekend in Cork, it suited us really well

Location is ideal, walking distance or short bus ride to everything you need. The staff are friendly and helpful. The rooms are not the most modern but it was clean and had amenities such as kettle and hair dryer.

Firstly it’s a 3 star hotel so anyone staying here don’t expect the Hilton and up to date facilities, it is what it is. I Stayed two nights and I found the room to be small, clean and comfortable. The hotel itself was clean and tidy but outdated with some wear and tear evident. There was some sort of leak (radiator) as my carpet was damp on the right hand side of the bed so I could not stand on that side as my foot got wet. I found the staff friendly and helpful and the bathroom was quite nice and updated with a nice walk in shower. There was a small square window which had no cover or curtain so that made me feel a bit exposed and uncomfortable but the other big window in the room had blinds and curtains. The hotel was booked under the consumption it did meals however it was stated in a welcome email (after it was booked) they did not provide meals and only a continental breakfast which was disappointing however there is plenty of eating options around town and nearby restaurants,shops and so on. There is a multi storey car park nearby which is handy for parking and the hotel can offer discount on it. Overall I found the hotel decent with a sense of effort from the staff and environment (trying to do the best they can with what they have).
