Lovely Little Hotel on the Hill
This is. lovely, fashionable hotel on the hill in Cork. Te restaurant and bar have wonderful views of the city. You can easily walk to restaurants although its a little bit more of a walk than some other hotels (that was a plus for us- we need to walk off the food and wine). The highlight is definitely the Glasshouse Bar where I could spend every evening for the rest of my life. They had a wonderful lounge singer one night and the waiters had the friendly Irish charm you hear so much about.
Our one critique would be the front desk staff. We arrived and they told us they had upgraded us to a bigger room "more accessible" which we took as better location. They actually put us in a handicap room with an extremely awkward bathroom situation that I wish I had taken a picture of because you basically rolled into a do it all spot in the middle of the bathroom and the sink was 3 feet off ground. We requested the type of room we had booked and were punished with an underground level room close to parking lot and elevator. We later asked for change for tipping purposes and was also rudely rebuffed. They also asked if we wanted to add breakfast to our room which we thought was included but when it was not we said we would just decide in the morning if we wanted to eat at the hotel or go out. She said "Ill just charge you in case." I thought she was kidding but alas when we checked out she had charged us and we had gone into town for breakfast.
