    We were on a respite break so we didnt book breakfast as we were really looking forward to a lie on. Unfortunately we were woken very early by a very loud alarm in the room around 7am which gave us all a fright and woke the little man so we were all up then.

    Beautiful hotel though. Very comfortable and staff were lovely. Food was lovely too!

    A pleasant stay not far from Cork city.

    Bar service was very slow. There seemed to be a lot of staff around but no one was serving people at the bar for quite some time. It all looked very disorganised, despite not being that busy . We did book a basic room so can't really complain about the lack of a view, however ours was pretty terrible in that regard. We overlooked some kind of utility courtyard which was pretty grim. For such a short stay this was fine, but for anything longer, it would had been a bigger issue for us. There were no towels in our room when we arrived but, to be fair to housekeeping, they brought some to us within minutes of letting them know,.

    We had a brief but pleasant stay at the Raddisson blu. We opted for this hotel for our overnight in Cork due to the more reasonable price than city centre hotels, and because there was ample parking. It is a very short drive from the city and is located in a an area with a lot of retail units, though is still a very quiet hotel. The hotel itself is well presented. The lobby is welcoming and clean. The checkin process was very straightforward and we were in our room a few minutes after arriving. We didn't make use of the spa or pool but they can be seen on entering the hotel, and looked very good. The gym also looks to be bigger than your average hotel gym. The room was tastefully decorated with a perfect ambient temperature. The bed was very comfortable and we enjoyed the complimentary water and nespresso coffee. Overall we left feeling very positive after our stay and we will definitely return when next in Cork.

    The pool pumps/jets don't all work, and the changing rooms could do with redecorating. The piano in the lobby looks beautiful, but I have yet to see this being played. I have stayed in this hotel many times. A pianist, even just on the weekends, would be nice. This would give the reception area a nice atmosphere.

    The beds are very comfortable, and the staff are very helpful. It is good value.

    A very impressive foyer and all of the staff were exceptionally professional. The food in the brasserie was very tasty and decent portions. I was delighted that they serve Murphy’s stout on draught in the bar. The breakfast was incredible! The very attentive catering staff lady provided a lovely pot of tea with my breakfast.

    Kids hours for pool could be better. We arrived at 7pm when they finish and had to leave at 9am but kids hours only start at 8am. On check in, we were told the pool opens at 6 but kids hours don't start until 8 (sign on door of leisure centre) which is a shame as it would have been nice to be able to go at 7.

    Room was lovely and spacious, beds were incredibly comfy! Very clean, only reason it didn't get 10 is the kids hours in the pool.

    Lobby was cold at night. Sat near fireplace, but electric fire didn't work which was a shame. If it even lit up, it would have been more cosy

    Recommend booking for dinner to ensure there is a table ready to go and oddly enough, table service was slow with the pre-dinner drinks arriving after the mains - not a deal breaker, but surprising....

    For a big place, the rooms were surprisingly quiet and buffet breakfast was excellent. It's a little ways outside Cork and if you have appointments in town, make sure you allow sufficient travel time. Large shopping centre within walking distance behind the hotel.

    Not sure if it was the late dinner i got in the hotel but food wasn’t the best and very pricey. Kids menu was good. Some of the things was nothing like what food is supposed to taste like as Eaton Mess on kids menu was nothing like Eaton mess should look or taste like. But it wouldn’t stop me from staying there again !

    Really good location. Everything within a drive. Hotel Beside industrial estate with few shops if want to pick up something. Very pleasant staff. Was looking for family friendly hotel and this definitely is. Also has play area outside. Lovely pool with few options of jacuzzi and kiddies small pool. Had Music noise coming from either gym or pool all day but when addressed to staff it was dealt with straight away and lowered. Children got little bag of treats on arrival with little hotel slippers and were delighted. Room has everything you want in it. Breakfast with lots of options and really tasty and good quality breakfast

    We didn't realise there was going to be a convention off some sort at the hotel during our stay, we felt like we had to leave during the day as the place was so crowded. We did come for a quiet few days away but ended up parking on the grass garden due to the volume off people coming for this convention. I would prefer to knowing if the hotel was going to be so busy. Our room was also situated at the back due to our late check in so we were woken up by bins moving outside early in the morning.

    It isn't my first stay at the radisson Blue Cork, both times rooms were nice and clean and the staff was very friendly
