The Shelbourne in Cork

20/06/2025: Like most places, the experience can depend on when you visit. The first time I visited, it was very busy and the music was loud. I was a little put off then, but there was a potential about the place that I felt I hadn't experienced as it had a clean yet rustic vibe that I loved. The second time I visited, the music was low, and it was quiet with a chilled ambience. The cappuccino was good, and there was water available as well. The seating was very comfortable too. The only question on both visits was the staff were be a little distant. Overall, I'd definitely visit again.
