Everything was lovely but the food, the burgers were cold, the margherita pizza tasted like goats cheese. Staff are excellent. Receptionists so nice and friendly. And the leisure centre staff are lovely too.

We were late in checking in and the receptionist told me that the bed configuration I booked was not set up. But as away of recompense he provided free breakfasts for both of us.

Good place, nice staff, close to Cork city
Close to Cork City, a nice walk.
Parking limited but we snagged one and there is on street parking but it's hotly contested, I think.
Nice facilities - restaurant, and hotel shares gym, pool, steam room and sauna with a fitness centre.
Good hot shower and comfy bed, room a little small for 2 queens but completely fine for the money.

Compensation not given after being discussed
Parking was not good. Stated parking available but had to park blocks down and put a scratch off discounting the parking fees with a map of garages to go. Very confusing: Two twins put together that didn’t line up when I booked for a king. Spent $677 for two nights slept horrible 1st night due to the uneven bed situation. Woke up to only have the shower be cold and then would not shut off had to get management up right away and she shut it off and offered another room as we had no shower and expressed our concerns with sleep Stated she was going to comp breakfast but I told her are breakfast was already included for two nights and she said she would look into it and get back on a way to compinsate. Had to wait until after breakfast a few hours later to pack up all our stuff to move to another room. Roomed seems to be ok but bed situation more durable but still not a king and water still had difficulty getting it to come to temperature. When I talked to the desk she said there was nothing documented on a compensation or credit because we chose to move but we explained we had no choice. She said she would talk to other manager. As we were leaving she informed us they would not compensate. Very disappointed as we spent a lot of money at the bar having dinner and drinks which the employees on that end we were wonderful. If nothing can be done on a credit to my account, poor recommendations to social media, definitely know about our stay and

perfect stay
Absolutely loved our stay here. The location is perfect - on the north side of the river, so quieter and easier to park, but so walkable to everything to see in Cork. We had a lovely stroll across the river to amazing food (hundreds of placed to choose from), Cork Folk Festival and historic landmarks and enjoyed a stellar music session at the pub Sin e near the hotel. Room was everything we needed, nicely appointed and spacious.
Staff at Maldron were wonderful start to finish. Even when we had an unruly bunch partying next door, staff responded and reminded the party there were other guests around them - much appreciated!

Although rated 4 star it’s really a dated 3 star hotel. The rooms are basic and dated. The service is ordinary - first day staff didn’t offer to help with luggage for example.

My wife and I stayed at the Maldron while on the third leg of our trip. Unfortunately the first night there was a little incident that made us slight uncomfortable however the staff was quick to help us straighten things out and provide us with a new bedroom. Overall the stay was pleasant however like most have reviewed, the hotel can be very hot throughout the night but as long as you open the windows, it should be quite comfortable.

The room was like a sauna. There is no air circulation. The window would only open a crack. I would not stay here again.
