Lovely Hotel staff very friendly and helpful. Bar food top class. Enjoyed stay.

by Brian on May 9 2012 11:25

Stayed at the Best Western, Montenotte for three nights over the May Bank Holiday weekend. We had a very enjoyable stay, and were delighted with the hotel facilities. The leisure centre with pool, sauna etc is top class. The staff were helpful and courteous at all times, and provided a great service, even though the hotel was very busy. The hotel gave great value for money, and we would love to return again.

Great hotel, staff very friendly and helpful. The leisure facilities were great too! We ate in the bistro and the food was delicious

by Phil Ryan on Apr 29 2012 16:39

Top Class hotel, 4 star hotel 5 star service, well recommend.

M Ó Flatharta Stayed at the Montenotte, Cork Apr. 20th -23rd. A family gathering of 8. Even though some of us arrived early our rooms were ready. We had a very enjoyable stay. The staff was excellent, very friendly and helpful. Rooms were spacious and comfortable and food was excellent. It’s a downhill walk into the city (about 15min.) but we used taxis – more convenient and just as cheap when you consider the hassle of finding parking and the cost of it. Average cost of Taxi €8. We all enjoyed our stay and would have no hesitation to return.

by Katie on Apr 16 2012 17:08

Staff are happy, friendly and helpful. Leisure Centre a plus for the price. A bit far from the city without a car,but peaceful location.

by Laura Power on Apr 15 2012 10:03

It was a nice hotel but I did not really enjoy the stay. When we arrived the room was not ready and it took almost two hours until we eventualy got the key. We had a 2yr old and a 3mnth old with us so it was very stressful tryin to keep them calm and quiet as we waited for the room everytime qwe asked we were told another 10 mins if we had of known it would take 2hours we could have brought the kids off and went back in a while which would of caused a lot less stress.

by John R on Apr 12 2012 17:39

We stayed on the 7th & 8th of April and enjoyed our stay, it was a bit hectic at meal times as the hotel was very busy. We found the staff friendly and helpful and we will stay again.

by Alison Harte on Apr 11 2012 13:16

Fantastic hotel staff lovely and very helpful will be going back again

by JOC on Apr 10 2012 18:57

We stayed here on Saturday last the 7th April 2012 and found the all round service to be excellent from the pleasant receptionist who took a genuine interest in our wellbeing to the attentive waitress who served us breakfast the following morning. In fairness to all staff the level of cleanliness was noted immediately in both the bedroom and bathroom and really I can find no negatives. Will definately return when needing a room in Cork City again. The Montenotte offers a really pleasant walk to Cork City centre as it is all downhill although perhaps the same might not be said about the walk back if you are so inclined. Personally I would recommend this hotel to anyone as excellent value for money.

by Phil Owens on Apr 9 2012 18:30

Our stay with you was for 2 nights Thursday and Good Friday and not for pleasure as we were attending a funeral. We found the staff friendly and helpful particularly the Reception area. Hotel a little tired and in need of decoration but on the whole clean and comfortable. Would respectfully suggest that new pillows are needed (I went out and bought my own). We enjoyed a swim in the very good pool/gym area. Food in the dining room was good and breakfast had all we needed. I have stayed before and would again. Thank you for looking after us. Phil

by Kieran Murphy on Apr 9 2012 10:37

I enjoyed my stay on Good Friday. Nice room but TV reception is poor with limited channel viewing. Had the bar food which was good and well presented and buffet breakfast had everything that I wanted. Will definitely be booking again. I know the Hotel plays by the rules but it was sad to see the bar open on Good Friday. C'est la Vie.

by reviewer65692117 on Mar 31 2012 16:57

Comfortable rooms. Good food. Staff were courteous, helpful & efficient...especially reception. Very patient with my partner who is partially sighted and has limited mobility. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble. Thoroughly recommended.

by Peter Kehoe on Mar 30 2012 10:20

Location and Service top class 5

by Robbie on Mar 29 2012 08:55

My partner and i stayed for two nights in March at the Montenotte . As soon as we arrived the staff were very welcoming and helpful throughout our stay . The rooms were spacious ,clean and the bed was very comfortable. The walk into the city took about 10 minutes and was down hill all the way but going back can be a bit tougher on anyone with walking difficulties. The breakfast was very nice and there was plenty of choice.We would recommend the Montenotte hotel and look forward to staying there again in the near future.

by Tony Maher on Mar 27 2012 18:11

I stayed at the Montennotte on Sat Mar 24. I found the staff very friendly and helpful. The room was very nice, the bed comfortable. The hot water in the bathroom was not too hot and the pressure was a little low and the plumbing was noisy. However, on balance, it's a nice hotel and I'll stay there again!

by Roisin on Mar 24 2012 10:56

Good value for money. Excellent leisure centre. Friendly staff.

by James on Mar 21 2012 11:42

We had a most enjoyable stay, the staff were helpful and the hotel was good, as was the food and location. many Thanks James Harley-Peters

by reviewer46684375 on Mar 13 2012 18:17

Stayed here a few times before and enjoyed those. This time however on our second night we did not get much sleep as a large crowd of youths staying on the same floor were messing and running along the hallway. Their language was vile and I had to approach them myself to remind them that there was other people in the hotel who would like to sleep.

by reviewer27976579 on Mar 13 2012 15:28

Staff were very friendly and helpful, could not be faulted. Bedroom we stayed in needed a revamp. Carpet faded and bathroom tiles could do with a face lift. Room was clean and food was good. Located on a steep hill, bear this in mind if thinking of walking into the city.

by fergus on Mar 9 2012 14:22

most enjoyable, could not fault the hotel. Staff very friendly.

by sonia on Mar 6 2012 11:39

We had a great stay Saturday night, 3rd March 2012. The was a few functions on in the hotel which created a great buzz and lovely atmosphere. Funnily enough you would have not know there were so many people downstairs as it was very quiet up where the rooms were. We had dinner in the restaurant and were not rushed from our table. We were able to sit down ,relax and enjoy our meal and a nice bottle of wine (the seafood chowder was devine) There was a musician in the bar that played a good variety of music too. I couldn't fault anything about our stay last Saturday night. Breakfast the next morning was great too.

by evelyn o neill on Feb 28 2012 11:52

We had a great stay in this hotel and would recommend it

by MC on Feb 21 2012 15:47

Convenient hotel, about 10/15min downhill walk to Cork city quays, a taxi back costs about 8 euro. I wouldn’t consider it 4 star, it is closer to a 3 star standard just because of small details such as a broken handle on our window, no free water in room etc but the staff were very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was very good. Overall a good choice for a city break.

by Mick Glynn on Feb 21 2012 10:44

Nice hotel, the Leisure centre is lovely. Good location, possible to walk into town. Live music in the bar Saturday night was good. Would recommend to familys.

by D. on Feb 13 2012 15:53

Had 2 night stay with dinner & breakfast included at the Montenotte. Lone traveller. Was delighted with the reception book in/out. All Staff that I encountered were cheerful polite and most helpful. My room was lovely size for me on my own, have to say my husband is a big broad shouldered man and I feel he would have found the bathroom too compact, however for moi on her own it was just dandy. Bed was sooooooo comfy. Pool/sauna etc right nerxt door and just lovely to use. My only only disappointment was the food. I am not at all fussy and really feel am easy to please in this area, however even the soup was pretty bland. I hate giving negative feedback as I think those that read the review concentrate on that instead of over all view. Over all I felt wellcomed, found all staff helpfjul, would both recommend and stay here again myself in the future. Anne the manager was just brill, couldn't be more nice. Oh by the way, the hotel is up a very steep hill, which on a dry crisp feb morning was a pleasure to walk down.A bus can bring you up so far on your return, and although for a not so fit over 50 the rest of journehy up hill was...........good for me..............it might have easily killed me off. Ha ha. Wish I could do it every day. Stay and enjoy..........I did

by Family of Four on Jan 17 2012 15:55

We recently stayed at the Montenotte and had a very enjoyable stay. The room was very spacious (2 double beds and there was plenty of room for a travel cot) and we had a lovely view over the city. The buffet breakfast was lovely, with a good choice. The hot breakfast was delicious and was freshly cooked on both mornings. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. We made use of the swimming pool, which my son really enjoyed. Although the hotel is on a hill, we were able to walk down to the city and back which was very nice. We had a 4 year old (walking) and a baby in a pram so the uphill part was a bit slow going, but very do-able! All in all, we had a lovely stay and would definitely return to this hotel if we were visiting Cork again.

by Straight Forward on Jan 10 2012 12:33

Just back from a lovely stay at the Montenotte. Absolutely delighted with our choice, the hotels interior is very modern and the hotel offers a very relaxing ambience. The bedrooms are very contemporary and the beds are massive. The bar is really cosy with leather sofas and has a brilliant view over the city. The staff are extremely friendly and will help you in any way that thay can. Although the hotel is a good fifteen minute walk from the city center this didn't bother us as we walked in during the day and at night time we got taxi's which were plentiful. Overall a very pleasant stay and I would definitely return.

by Jackie on Jan 8 2012 11:28

WE had a very enjoyable stay. Staff very very friendly and extreamly helpfull. Rooms were very clean and comfortable and good size. Would have likes breakfast to go on past 10am midweek . Restaurant /bar food very good but brekfast poor quality . Overall a most enjoyable and relaxing stay and would highty reccomend this hotel ..

by Derek on Jan 7 2012 09:53

The hotel is in a quiet location a few minutes outside cork city.The hotel has good facilities but the rooms are in need of a little make over. I would stay there again and was good value for money.

by marion rubotham on Jan 4 2012 13:13

We stayed in this lovely hotel for 2 nights & loved everything about it. Check in was the quickest & most effecient ever,our room was bright airy & spotless with everything you could want.We had 2 course dinner on one night & bar food the next, both were delicious & the service was great.There was a band playing on Sat night & they were dreadful ,we heard buskers singing in town earlier in the day &they were way better.The staff were under great pressure serving breakfast Sun morning but coped brilliantly.Not many tv channels&bad reception,sky sport on in bar,it would be lovely to have it in room Hotel is in a lovely part of Cork not far from Cobh& Fota Great that it has pool & is very child friendly,We will definitly come back.

by Ann on Dec 20 2011 12:14

Really enjoyed our stay the weekend before Christmas. The staff were very friendly and helpfull and the food was excellent.

by Fran on Dec 14 2011 05:09

Had a most enjoyable stay, the staff are next to none, food was excellent. The music in the bar was very enjoyable, the bathroom is a little dated.... I have stayed here in the past and will stay again. Great hotel!!

by Lou on Dec 13 2011 16:02

Had a very nice week end at the Best Western Montenotte, staff extremely friendly and helpful, food lovely, bedroom very clean and comfortable, bathroon spotless. Decor slightly dated. Hotel very busy but also very relaxing. Leisure centre great. Look forward to returning.

by Goldilocks on Dec 6 2011 15:26

Very comfortable, welcoming hotel. it is my favourite place to stay when visiting relatives in Cork. I have stayed there more than once and just keep going back. Its relaxing and the staff are very friendly and helpful.

by Colin on Nov 14 2011 11:46

A positive experience. Staff are excellent and food is top quality at a reasonable price. Bedrooms are comfortable but our bathroom could have done with a refurb. Pool area is nice, just a pity there is no kiddie pool... Would stay again,,,,,

by Marie & Derek on Nov 13 2011 12:43

Had a most enjoyable stay. While on first appearance the hotel and the décor looked a little tired, the room was excellent, just as in the website photos. Toilet flush a bit iffy otherwise facilities were top class. The staff friendly and courteous, the bar service and food including the breakfast excellent. Would go back again.

by artic lorry on Nov 10 2011 10:13

stayed in the hotel with my family .. would not consider it a 4 star but not a bad hotel overall.. staff super.. and food great .. however did seem to notice lots of stags and hen parties stayed there.. so was woken up at 2.30 am .. and noise did not stop till approx 4.30am.. kids also woke up .. but overall great hotel apart from the noise.. one of my kids left one of his toys after him.. and rang back 2 days later.. and not a problem for the staff as had found it and kept it.. so happy days..

by caroline corcoran on Nov 8 2011 16:10

our stay was excellent from start to finish. the rooms are spacious,warm and have everything you need. the food was the nicest food that we have had in a very long time and the menu was excellent. staff were very helpful and nice. the lesiure centre was great. overall i would rate the hotel with 5 stars and would return again and this was our second time staying for a weekend break. would recommend this hotel

by Sandra Walker on Oct 25 2011 19:32

Hotel a little dated but nice and clean. Staff very friendly and bar food very nice. Service at breakfast was a little slow.

by Til on Oct 18 2011 11:05

Staff were very helpful and nice. Thought the rooms were a bit dated and worn but very clean. Was a bit dissapointed with breakfast would have liked more choice. The bar food was excellent with plenty of choice. The hotel has a lovely leisure centre. We stayed in October '11

by patrick hughes on Oct 16 2011 18:05

the staff very nice rooms hard to find directions on hallways very bad i booked a smooking room and they did not tell me until i had checked in that it was a non smooking hotel so out in the rain for me

by emwalsh on Oct 11 2011 19:00

Our stay in the hotel was just for 1 night. We found the staff very friendly and helpful. We also eat in the hotel bar and the food was very good. The only fault I had was that our room was at the front of the hotel and found that I could hear the passing traffic and also the late night revellers returning to the hotel. M Walsh

by lelia on Oct 10 2011 10:03

I would definitely not rate this hotel as 4* more like a 3* but it is still a great hotel to stay in when visiting Cork. Location is good just 10 minutes by bus or taxi or 25 minutes walk and all down hill and one must visit Cork City it really is one of the great cities to visit in Ireland and especially the English Market. Rooms are big and views over Cork City are great. breakfast and dinners are great and food selection is good. I will surely be back again to visit Cork City and will stay again at this hotel.

by Alice Cahill on Oct 7 2011 06:27

Stayed in Montenotte 2 nights B&B with 2 evening meals. Rooms were a good size with 2 double beds in them. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Meals were lovely. Yes, breakfast is buffet style with the usual selection but if you ask for extras they have no problems with that. We asked for tomatoes, mushrooms and poached egg to go on our breakfast plate and what arrived was a meal in itself. Music only on a Saturday night. It wasn't fantastic, but it better than nothing. Word of warning!!! Very steep hill up to hotel. It takes approx 7 minutes to walk down it but about 15 to 20 minutes to walk up it at a leisurely pace. But good exercise. You can also get a taxi for about €7. Also no bath mat in the bath so it can be very slippery when taking a shower. I wouldn't class this as a 4* hotel but I would definitely stay here again. Excellent value for what we paid.

by mimiv on Oct 4 2011 10:55

The service at this hotel was excellent. The door didn't lock on the first room we had and the porter was there within minutes and we were given another, and nicer room immediately. The women at the front desk were always friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good and we had a room service dinner that came quickly, was still hot and was delicious. Although clean, the rooms and public spaces did seem a little worn. It was very busy though, so that would happen. The rugby world cup was on while we were there and they had the tv going and breakfast set up in the bar area for people who wanted to watch. I don't think many hotels would do that.

by Sheila on Oct 4 2011 09:54

Fabulous food, brilliant service, exceptional staff. Highly recommend this hotel and will be returning in the near future.

by Oliver & Mary Doyle on Oct 3 2011 11:13

We were very disappointed in service overall. Staff could be more friendly apart from one in, ? how many, for a hotel this size. A big improvement would be better staff training.

by Lynn farrell on Oct 3 2011 09:50

We stayed for one night in the hotel and overall it was pleasant breakfast was great, staff were under alot of pressure though and this slowed things down. I asked at reception on arrival if kids were allowed at in the bar and was told no not after food was finished but having reading previous reviews turns out somebody had kids in the bar in august. For this reason i wouldnt recommend this hotel to anyone.

by Orla Kelly on Oct 2 2011 15:52

Excellent, staff very friendly and helpful, food was fantastic, would definitely stay again

by Plip on Oct 1 2011 21:23

We stayed in The Montenotte Hotel In Cork. The room was clean and warm but small, especially with a travel cot in it. The food in the bar was beautiful and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Parking was free which is a huge bonus for a city hotel. The toilet had a pump flush which was sometimes difficult to flush. There was a daily rate of €6 for the use of the hotel's WIFI which I felt was very miserable, it should automatically be free. Overall, we had a pleasant stay, with a great price and convenient location.

by Noel and Beulah McCormick on Sep 30 2011 18:17

We enjoyed our visit very much. the staff were very welcoming and friendly and the food was good. Thanks

by eamon on Sep 21 2011 10:03

reception staff very friendly. Room fine. very disappointed with breakfast service. On first morning had to ask twice for a fried egg and was finished eating when they arrived. On second morning asked three times for coffee before receiving it. Seemed to be enough staff but just not tuned in.

by Linda Murphy on Sep 20 2011 23:49

Stayed here as a couple and was surprised it was so busy on the weekend prior to a festival weekend. The hotel appeared to be full and we could not fault it in any way. We dined in the restaurant on Fri & Sat night and food was excellent, served in timely manner by lovely staff. Breakfast was very nice too. Check in and out was efficient and friendly, sadly we didn't get to try the leisure centre as we were just too busy. I would recommend this and would stay here again if in Cork. The only minor downside was rooms are smaller than other hotels we stayed in but I would not let that put me off staying again

by Debbie on Sep 14 2011 12:57

Very friendly Staff. Clean. Good food. Late night bar. Spectacular views. The only thing that disappointed me was that there was no entertainment or music in the bar area, apart from that all was good.

by Anon on Sep 13 2011 13:22

Rooms were lovely, staff in bar were very busy and rushed as there was a wedding on, this resulted in them coming across as being unfriendly and unhelpful, did not expect the charge of €5 for room service!!!

by Thomas Porter on Sep 10 2011 20:28

very comfortable rooms n beds. dinner was excellent. Breakfast great also.Staff really helpful.very good value for money. enjoyed the fitness centre facilities (hope they repair jacuzzi soon though!).highly recommended.

by Ed Sheehan on Sep 8 2011 14:06

Stayed here as part of our diamond wedding celebrations. Excellent service, great location and view (especially at night). The staff were very pleasant and generous. Highly recommended.

by AoifeAA on Sep 8 2011 12:44

Hotel located up hill on the outskirts of the city €10 taxi into the city centre, Breakfast was included in the price otherwise to expensive to dine in their restaurant better deals avalible in the city, No water pressure in the shower, Wi-fi was charged to the room

by Phyl on Sep 2 2011 08:44

Not of 4 Star Standard, should be 3 Star. Room very stuffy and humid. Breakfast is of 1 star quality...breakfast staff very grumpy and dour.

by Shaz on Aug 29 2011 23:07

was very impressed with the hotel rooms were very clean, staff were lovely will stay again :) Sharon

by Spinbot on Aug 24 2011 12:30

Beds very uncomfortable. Staff very nice though.

by Kate on Aug 23 2011 11:12

I found the room was very stuffy, it would have been nice if there was air conditioning in the room, also the toilet did not flush properly. Other than that I was happy enough with the hotel.

by Patrick Gillick on Aug 17 2011 19:15

Enjoyed our stay, the staff were very friendly, the only down side was no sky sports, and we had to leave the hotel to find a location with sky sports for the football matches. otherwise we all had a good time.

by Lindylou on Aug 15 2011 10:22

We were a group of ladies booking in for the night; The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and we found the hotel to be exactly as the picutres shown. The meal was fabulous- really yummy!. The rooms were very comfortable. The breakfast was good and they served till 10.30am. I would recommend the hotel; the price was extremely reasonable also.

by Trish on Aug 14 2011 14:39

Nice hotel in a good location. Food in restaurant very nice. Staff very friendly. Pool a bonus. Put cot in room for baby no probelm. Children allowed in bar at night. Bedrooms a bit dated.

by J&O on Aug 9 2011 20:37

We stayed at the Montenotte Hotel for one night of the August Bank Holiday weekend. What a lovely stay we had. Valarie the girl who checked us in was so friendly and helpful gave us a beautiful room to the front of the hotel with a fantastic view. All the staff were most helpful and when the iron did not work in the room (twice) they had no problem in brining us up another one. We did not have dinner in the hotel but the breakfast was very good. A bit short of some food on the buffet but it did arrive out in the end - but the food was very tasty. The bar also has a fantastic view and is very nicely furnished. We would have no problem in spending another few nights at this hotel. Enjoyed our short stay very much Thanks to all. Judy & Orla Mannion.

by Aiveen on Jul 31 2011 12:02

26/7/2011 - 29/7/2011. Had a very pleasant stay at the Montenotte Hotel, found room to be very clean, a little on the small side perhaps, as was the double bed, however it was adequate. Food in both bar and restaurant was excellent, staff were very helpful and friendly. The only fault I found was the overpowering smell of the lillies at reception that played havoc with my hayfever!!!

by m cummins on Jul 19 2011 12:31

Myself and my husband recently stay here for a weekend break, overall the hotel is very good lovely big rooms and very clean all the staff were very helpful and friendly my only negative about the place was breakfast on both mornings. it was buffet style and each morning when we arrived down we had to wait a while for the platters to be refilled, the staff on duty were doing their best but they were clearly understaffed in my eyes. they hotel was very busy so i thought they should have been better prepared for the morning rush of breakfast.

by Ann and David Coley on Jul 11 2011 09:24

We had a 2 night stay at the Montenotte just recently and would recommend the hotel as a pleasant experience.The staff are friendly and helpful, our room was clean and comfortable as was the hotel.We were there on a package deal as a pensioner and tight budget restraints so the 2 nights B and B and Dinner for the 2 nights was excellent value, considering the meals we had and the overall experience one couldn't but thank the staff for a very enjoyable trip.If you are visiting Cork for the first time do visit the English Market and amble through the stalls and see the produce on offer it's a foodies delight. Ann and David, Ennis, County Clare. 10th July 2011.

by Kevcurt on Jul 10 2011 06:32

A very average hotel with poor customer service. Requested a room with a view and was assured at check in it was lovely only to be faced with a large wall outside the window. The room was ok but the bed was 2 singles very obviously stuck together and I could clearly hear the conversation of the person in the room next door. Breakfast was nice but unfortunately it was poorly staffed. Asked twice for tea and toast and when it finally came we had finished out breakfast. All in all a very forgettable stay.

by kate on Jul 1 2011 23:03

lovely hotel only 1 gripe the same menu for the 3 nights we stayed and no smoking area as such you had to go outside the hotel or off the bar which was annoying.

by joe hayes on Jun 21 2011 07:47

room was clean and comfortable,evening meal was very good but breakfast was average. need to learn how to pour and present a pint of guinness in the bar.overall we enjoyed our stay and would return.joe and teresa

by Eileen on Jun 15 2011 07:20

We only stayed one night. I dont think this hotel merits 4 stars at all. We booked a double room and given a twin room with a shower for a disabled person. Hotel is dated, carpets are dated and skirtings in hallways shabby plus a lot of walking to get to the room we were changed to. Wouldnt stay there again.

by Joey on May 17 2011 18:50

Great location, great value for money. Service and food very good and rooms very clean. Would stay here again

by Joey on May 17 2011 18:45

Excellent value for money - very nice hotel and enjoyed our stay

by marion sugrue on May 1 2011 16:25

the hotel was nice i wouldnt say worth the 4 stars though, staff were very polite and helpful, meals were lovely. only complaint is it was a pity there wasnt music in the bar during the week

by A & R Buckley on Apr 26 2011 14:49

Had a great time with Family, the hotel is well located and good value for money, the only issues we had was on Good Friday there was no fish on the breakfest menu which was a bit strange. Other than that room was very clean, staff very friendly.

I really enjoyed my stay in the Montonotty Hotel Cork. The rooms are very comfortable, you have a huge chioise for breakfast, the use of the swimming pool and jym. All at a great price. I would visit again. William Keogh Co. Offaly.

I was very dissapointed with my stay at the Montenotte on the 15th and 16th of april, we were kept awake untill 4am in the morning by a party of about 30 unsupervised children running around the corridors shouting and slamming doors while the gurdians drank in the bar downstairs, there seems to be no policy in place in the hotel to controll unsociable guests. Although the staff were trying thier best to deal with the situation it seemed to be completely out of there controll, and we had to deal with the situation ourselves. All of the staff were brilliant that were working that weekend during the day and night, but after reading other guests reviews the noise situation seems to be a reacurring problem here for guests and the hotel doesn't seem to be taking any action to prevent this from happening. I have never ever experienced anything like it in another hotel. There were other minor petty complaints like worn carpets,a 1cm gap gap in the window when it was closed, cold breakfast, poor tv reception, ect but I would not stay here again on the grounds that you are not guarenteed a good nights sleep.

We had a great time, all staff very friendly hotel clean and rooms clean, only one bath towel per room which was strange as two people sharing the room. on the whole great value for money.

This was our fourth stay at the Montenotte Hotel and it certainly won't be our last,the staff and most importantly the chef's are top quality,the bedrooms are airy and spacious and comfortable and the leisure facility is excellent with its wonderful pool,steam-room, sauna and gym.If I was to find a fault it would be the lack of directional sign posts for those not too familiar with Cork City,knowing the huge cost that local Co. Council's put on these sign-posts it is understandable to keep them to a minimum.Keep up the good work,Regards,Pat Clancy.

Really nice hotel Long walk from City. Number 7 or 8 bus stop is a five minute walk away from hotel and will take you into the City. Recommend buying Day saver ticket - that way you can travel to and from hotel as many times as you want.

The Montenotte hotel was a nice place. Certainly nothing too fancy, but nice. Clean, with a lovely pool and well equipped gym in the basement. Staff were helpful and friendly, but not over intrusive. The room had everything I needed and was comfortable and a nice size. Carpets were faded, and worn through in a couple of places, which gave a bad first impression, so I'd love to see that changed as its really selling the place down, but apart from that, it was lovely. I was disappointed (and left out of pocket) by the fact that reception staff advised me that it was impossible to get a bus to my destination without changes and delays. There was, in fact, a direct bus within a five minute walk which cost %u20AC2.50 per day as opposed to the $28 (before tips) that a return taxi cost for the first two days until I figured out the busses.

All worked out as planned no hidden extras great value.Only snag our room was at the start of the corridor and there was a wedding on the first night which meant a lot of noisy people passed our door until very early the next morning.Otherwise very pleased.

OK, but the room was not of a standard you expect from a 4 star hotel. The thermostat in the bathroom was not working, giving only boiling watyer in the shower...Not nice if you want to washy your hair! Most of the carpets in the hotel need to be changed.. But in the adds, they say the hotel has rexcently been refurbished...

by stadoyle on Mar 29 2011 10:12

Room was ok, but bed was TINY! was like a large single bed, for a double room in a 4* hotel?? Not good. Food was ok in restaurant but you had to pay for your veg and side potatoes which were way over priced . And also dont avail of the masseaus they have on the website , he is not professional at all, had an appointment and he messed us about big time. Over all not a bad experience, breakfast was buffet which was good.

Great location and the staff were extremely helpful. One word of note for people with buggies the lift situation there is not the best.

The Montenotte hotel offered excellent service. The rooms were very comfortable and clean, The staff members were very helpful and offered a service with a smile. I also enjoyed the on site massage which was great value for money. I would have no hesitation in recommended this to someone.
