What guests think

At Maryborough Hotel & Spa, travelers consistently praise the exceptionally friendly, attentive staff and the beautiful, tranquil grounds with well-liked spa, pool and gym facilities, while noting the location is outside central Cork and often a taxi ride away.

Rooms range from spacious and comfortable to dated or awkwardly designed, with mentions of bath-in-bedroom layouts, shower-over-tub setups, limited air conditioning, and occasional privacy or access quirks. Breakfast and on-site dining are widely appreciated, though some cite high prices, occasional busy or disorganized breakfast service, and limited early-morning coffee. Expect a relaxing stay with standout service and serene surroundings away from the city bustle.

Excellent aging high end facility, without air conditioning in the rooms and still having bathtub showers, but with an amazing high tech gym and luxurious spa. Great personnel and excellent restaurant. We would go back anytime, as long as it’s not in a very warm period.

Excellent hotel. The staff was a amazing, the ladies only pool and spa area was THE BEST! Our only issue was the instant coffee in the rooms. That was super disappointing but we know to be prepared for the possibility of it for the last 1/2 of our trip! It sure didnt wreck our stay since the hotel is super fancy and really amazing though!

This is the only hotel room I've ever stayed in that had a bath tub in the sitting area. The walk from the reception area to our room was convoluted and required going up and down stairs, amd passing through multiple doors. The spa was ok, but like the rest of the facility, maintenence was lacking.

The hotel facilities were great the spa was amazing but the bedroom let the whole thing g down .. broken furniture, scratched furniture and dirty carpet … the whole room was a complete let down.. for such a lovely downstairs the room was a disgrace. It was worth a 1 star let alone a 4 star .. and was the most expensive room we had on our trip and it was the worst!! I would like to stay there again as our family lives in the area but unless the revamp not a hope. Shame cause I would recommend their spa to everyone.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Maryborough Hotel. Staff were so friendly and breakfast had an amazing selection. The room was clean and very comfortable. There was a slight issue with the shower mat which was actually slippery and would have been safer without. The hotel is in a beautiful setting and we had a relaxing stay before our onward journey.

After checking in and getting to our rooms #251 and #252 we were extremely disappointed. The rooms look nothing like anything shown on the website (more zen Polynesian looking) and definitely not something we were looking for. The musty smell in the hallway and the water damage stains on the ceiling and currents in #251. While trying to accept what we were given I went to the front desk and advised them that had I known that those were the rooms that we were going to get I would of never booked that hotel. Johannes at the front desk was very apologetic and said he would rectify it and had us moved to room #320 and #222 which were more like the photos shown on the website. Other than the room situation at the start we were pleased with the hotel. The breakfast was very good each morning. They offer plenty of free parking on the property.

We stayed one night here after arriving from Dublin. The room given was a spa room and it is old fashioned and outdated. It was far from any photos that was shown when I booked the room. Breakfast was thankfully a better one compared to the room we had. Located in the residential area and therefore is a quiet place away from the traffic noise. Did not take photos because we do not need any reminders of the room given to us that was supposedly going for renovations soon. Being a Gold member I was also not offered any room upgrade.

Probably a good choice for a wedding or business conference venue, this was a poor choice for us as tourists as it is out from town in a residential area. While the rooms were large and staff helpful, I was disappointed that they did not have coffee in the rooms or in the lobby before 8am on weekends. A erroneous fire alarm repeated three times during one night of our stay between 2 and 3am was also disappointing without apology or explanation.

The hotel is on some very nice stately grounds with a very nice Spa facility attached. The Bedroom I have to say was not great. The bath / shower area was awful with it almost impossible to stop the water going everywhere. Lighting really poor / bedding poor / temperature regulation poor and floors which seemed like freshly polished were lethal! Breakfast / dinner was good and grounds were lovely, but could do with some money being spent on the rooms.

We were pretty excited based on the pictures. Parking was easy and check-in quick. All was good up until we got to our room. The mattress was horrible, there were only two outlets that worked and they are tucked inside a cubbie. The bathroom was the worst. You have to be a very flexible person to get into the shower which was very hard for my 79 year old mother. Barely any lighting in the bathroom. Just a very awkward room especially for a 4 star hotel. Food was okay but overpriced for the quality.

Bedroom/en suite, no complaints. Man who checked us in at Reception was really efficient and so pleasant. Breakfast on Sunday morning, alas, was bedlam. Tables were not cleared off even though guests well gone. The entrance area to restaurant wasn’t manned all the time so some room numbers not taken. Guests had to call staff (limited numbers). to order hot food! A Supervisor needed - not rocket science. Glad we were only there for 1 night. Brother-in-law there 2 nights and said breakfast was more organized on the Saturday morning …..

Quiet, well appointed room with bath and access to lawn. Great spa area open quite late to enjoy. Comfy beds and eco-friendly lighting. Unfortunately, unable to review breakfast as we left too early and breakfast is served later on the weekend which was unclear at booking so paid more for bed and breakfast package that was not able to be redeemed.
