Would not stay again or recommend... Leaves one feeling that nobody cares though the girls running the show seems to be

Good location; friendly staff who are trying their best

This is a 'you are on your own once we give you the keys' type of establishment . If you have a issue there is no one to contact . You can go and ring the bell outside what is called reception and will get a message that no one is available ; we came back after dinner and found the soap dispenser in the bathroom did not dispense anything but could get no help . Had to use the shampoo to wash our hands which is no big deal in itself but this place was not cheap

ok für eine Nacht, einigermaßen nah zum Zentrum Cork, mäßig charmant

Aufmerksames Personal beim Frühstück. Hat mich darauf hingewiesen, dass Porridge nicht mit veganer Milch angerichtet ist.

Zimmer wurde auf Booking mit "Blick auf Fluss" angepriesen. Tatsächlich war das Zimmer im Erdgeschoss und das Fenster ging auf einen Innenhof, wo alle Leute zum Frühstück vorbei gehen mussten. Die Zimmertür war gegenüber dem Eingang, dh wir haben jedes Ein- und Ausgehen anderer Gäste extrem laut mitbekommen.

This B&B is in a good location. The staff were all excellent; they saw to our every need.

We asked to leave our vehicle in their parking lot prior to check-in so that we could walk and explore. The staff were very compliant.

The room was a bit small, but our window did have a nice view of the River.

Gerne wieder.

Äusserst nettes und freundliches Personal. Die Zimmer sind sauber, geräumig und nett eingerichtet. Das Frühstück ist landesüblich und gut. Die Lage ist gut und die Stadt ist zu Fuß bequem zu erreichen.

Mülltrennsystem für den Gast nicht offensichlich.

Great location, pleasant stay

Location was great, very central and we could walk to the centre easily. Room and bathroom was spacious. We had seat by the river for breakfast and it was a lovely sunny day. Staff were friendly.

Shower was hard to figure our as two taps both controlling pressure and temperature and hard to get it right. Breakfast service was a little slow, we asked for tea about 4 times before we got it, as not many staff for the amount of guests. There was also no alternative/plant milk which is unusual in this day and age.

Fantastic staff and very close to town centre, great location.

We were a bit surprised by how small the room was, but the breakfast room was lovely. The high rating is really for the staff. They were warm and friendly and made everything really lovely, and the coffee and breakfast were done to perfection.

Room was pretty small.

Voor de prijs had ik meer comfort verwacht

Good location to visit the city. Nice breakfast Clean rooms

Wat gedateerd, smal bed en geen mogelijkheid voor koffie. Onze kamer was bovenin en voor tijd van het jaar ontzettend warm.

Good spot from which to enjoy Cork and the surroundings.

Property backed onto the River Lee. Charming. Staff changed my room so I didn't have to climb two floors. Good breakfast. They organised free parking too. Easy to get buses into Cork City Centre.

Gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis für Innenstadtnähe - sehr zu empfehlen!

Super Lage, man ist in 10 min in die Stadt gelaufen und hat einen Parkplatz vor der Tür. Das Haus ist sehr alt (hohe Decken, knarzender Boden und Holztüren die etwas Schwung brauchen um zu schließen) aber schön gemacht und authentisch. Die Betten waren sehr bequem und es war auch genug Platz um beide Koffer aufzuklappen. Es gab genug Tee und Kaffee und ausreichend Geschirr. Die Dusche war super zum einstellen und der Wasserdruck war perfekt !

Der Kloorollenhalter fiel ab und die Fugen in der Dusche könnten erneuert werden. Aufrüstung auf einen USB Ladeanschluss wäre zu empfehlen :)

Personal war nett und freundlich. Frühstück war auch gut. Muss aber dort nicht mehr wohnen. Es gibt bessere Unterkünfte.

Personal war freundlich und das Zimmer sauber. Frühstück war gut und ausreichend. Kaffee war auch okay.

Enge Flure, schmale Treppen , Kleines Zimmer. Dachschräge das man kaum an dieser Seite ins Bett einsteigen konnte. An dieser Seite kein Nachttisch und Lampe. Alles sehr eng und unzureichend.

The difference between the picture and the real thing, our car got blocked and no one there to help. Price extremely high for the service provided. The room was more or less ok, but everything else was dirty and very messy.

Preis-Leistung stimmt überhaupt nicht.

Die Lage war okay

Sehr kleines Zimmer mit noch kleinerem, alten Bad. Für zwei Personen mit zwei Koffern war das Zweibett-Zimmer nicht geeignet.

Great stay at the Shandon Bells Guest House

It was very clean and a good location for Cork city centre

It would have been better to have live stream tv rather than just Netflix, itvx etc

in general my stay was okay and I will book here if I am travelling alone and not on luxury

location of the guest house is superb for accessing various places around Cork and it's not also far away from Cork Airport

the rooms can be very noisy because people keep moving all the time and also very late at night and you can hear every squeak and people upstairs or in the corridors when you are supposed to be sleeping

Colazione sul ruscello, soggiorno piacevole.

Il personale è molto cordiale e disponibile, e parla un po' di italiano, la colazione è buona, la posizione un po' decentrata ma comunque vicina alle attrazioni principali, doccia super.

La pulizia non è al top, molte scale da fare con le valigie, parcheggio non sempre disponibilie in loco.

Kind staff, phenomenal shower pressure, delicious breakfast/c, comfy beds - all the things you need!

Staff were lovely and accommodating at breakfast. Thoughtful, kind, and so welcoming! Newly refinished bathroom was a great use of space with insanely good water pressure. Beds were super comfy.

We had the attic room, so the slanted ceiling was a little awkward for my parter, but that's no fault of the hosts here. It was a lovely lay out/great use of space!
