What guests think

At Radisson Blu Hotel, Cork, travelers consistently praise friendly staff, comfortable rooms, and hearty breakfasts, while noting recurring downsides like overheated rooms without air conditioning, occasional cleanliness and maintenance lapses, and a business-park location that’s inconvenient without a car.

On-site dining often impresses, though menu variety and vegetarian options divide opinion. Leisure facilities include an indoor pool and spa, but several guests note a cool pool and occasional elevator outages. Overall, it’s a practical base on Cork’s outskirts, best suited to travelers with a car.

Overall it was a ok stay. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and the breakfast and dinners we had were all delicious, we can't fault that at all. We were disappointed however to find there is no spa there any longer as it wasn't made clear anywhere before booking that that was the case. The pool was just a few degrees too cold that it wasn't a comfortable experience and the jacuzzi was just a corner of the pool which you stood up in with some jets. The changing room had no cubicles so people were struggling to change without revealing themselves. The radiator in our room had the thermostat hanging off and although we alerted reception noone fixed it during our stay. The toilet also really creaked if you sat on it which was a bit unnerving when it is only attached to the wall. So it was an average stay but we wouldn't book to stay there for a special occassion again.

I was very disappointed with my recent stay. The room was not properly cleaned — there were personal items left behind from previous guests, no bottled water provided, and the curtains were in poor condition. The carpet in the hallway was dirty and gave a poor first impression. I reported these issues to reception, and while the leftover items were removed, the curtains were not replaced and no offer was made to move me to another room. Overall, the standards of cleanliness and service were well below what I would expect, and I will be considering alternative accommodation in the future.

The room was too hot and the temperature was at its lowest. The breakfast was very disappointing, they had a good selection but over all the food was very bland and the scrambled didn’t taste like egg and had a weird texture. The fried eggs all had runny white.

A very nice hotel. Room was in very good condition. Rooms did not have air conditioning and it seemed like they had the heat on. I called down to ask and they said to just open your window and put a fan on. Did not really care for that response cause I was sweating while laying in bed.

Honestly this was a super disappointing experience, especially considering the expectations given the Radisson brand. The man at check-in was surly and looked like he didn’t want to be there. The rooms were supposed to be together. However we were allocated rooms over the spa but the lift was not working properly and so they had to move my mother to the other wing as she was using sticks and couldn’t make the stairs easily. This meant that we weren’t together. Neither room had aircon and, whilst both hot, ours was stifling. The problem was that the windows opened out to the motorway (just separated by a thin line of trees) so it was far too noisy to relax or sleep. Also there was standing water on the flat roof just outside the window so danger of bugs as well. The door to the room was very stiff and needed a full body shove to open. The state of the hotel overall was a little tired. The carpets were quite dirty both in the room and in the corridor. The in-room cleaning wasn’t particular thorough and the floor of the bathroom was not cleaned during our two night stay. The only saving grace was the staff in the restaurant/bar who where friendly, polite, helpful and went above and beyond, including making a special meal for my mother who has specific dietary requirements. Overall this was a real let down both for the price and the brand - and a marked difference from the Radisson Blu in Dublin which was superb.

No air conditioning and windows barely open. Hallway and rooms were like a sauna. Staff at reception at check-in was apathetic. He couldn't find our reservation and made us feel like we had done something wrong. No acknowledgement when he finally did. Not quite the "welcome" you'd expect.

The hotel was very understaffed. We waited in line for 25-30 min to check in because there was only one representative at the front desk. She was great but alone. We had dinner in the restaurant but there were only two servers. The manager was great at helping but the restaurant was full. Our “upgraded” room had a broken lock, badly stained floors, something that looked like blood on the shower curtain and an overwhelming smell of chlorine from the pool.

Located outside Cork – this a delightful full-service hotel that provides an oasis of quiet. We stayed for a single night on our leisure trip to Ireland – and although it was on the outskirts of Cork, it helped us discover the delightful town of Cobh – a hidden gem in Ireland. Breakfast the next day was wonderful and set us up nicely for the Ring of Kerry. We look forward to coming back to Ireland and seeing more of the area with the Radission Blue being a signature stop.
