Spacious rooms with river views, sauna and steam room, candle-lit restaurant menus and optional afternoon-tea upgrades support a romantic stay, but there is no adult-only spa zone for privacy.
Why 1-2 days visit duration is ideal for couple trip: Allows time to relax in the pool, enjoy dinner, and explore Cork’s riverside attractions.
Club Vitae Leisure Centre:
Swim in the 18 m heated pool or relax in the sauna and steam room.
Tip: Go early to secure loungers by the pool.
Executive Room Upgrade:
Book a room with city or river views and get complimentary robes and slippers.
Tip: Reserve the upgrade at booking to guarantee availability.
Romantic Dinner at Globe Bar & Restaurant:
Pre-book a 3-course menu overlooking the river.
Tip: Make a reservation with reception at least one day in advance.
Afternoon Tea in the Atrium Lounge:
Choose classic tea or Prosecco upgrade for two.
Tip: Arrive at 3 pm for the best light in the glass-roofed lounge.
Stroll to the English Market:
Sample local cheeses, seafood and baked goods just a 5-minute walk away.
Tip: Go mid-morning for fresh produce and smaller crowds.
Cork Harbour Boat Tour:
Hop on a 1-hour tour from the nearby quay.
Tip: Book tickets at reception for approximate €20 pp rates.
The heated pool and steam rooms are ideal in autumn and winter. In summer, pair afternoon tea with a riverside walk at sunset.

Many nice Irish locals/ families, an...

I stayed at this hotel recently for a little birthday trip, and overall it was a decent stay with a few niggles worth noting. First impressions The public areas could do with a bit more attention to cleaning and general maintenance. In particular, there were fingerprints on the windows in the lobby that caught the eye and detracted from the overall impression. We were unable to check in early bec...

Excellent location. Very welcoming and kind staff. Bed was super comfortable. Shower power wasn’t great. Most TV channels didn’t work. Balcony was lovely. Food was lovely, albeit slow service. Overall, a lovely stay.

Nice spacious hotel in a great location, leisure centre was great, friendly staff. The room we had needs a good update and deep clean, no power in the shower, uncomfortable bed and pillows and dirty tacky lamps. We didn't book bed and breakfast but on our first morning thought we stay for breakfast it was €16 and we couldn't eat it, not nice at all. With some room updates and a better breakfast it...
