From the moment I entered the River Lee hotel I was made to feel like the most important guest in the hotel. That's the kind of service you don't get everywhere. When checking in the receptionist was exceptionally helpful. I asked for directions to the English Market and she not only provided directions and a map but also gave me... More

My wife and myself stayed here on a Friday evening during a city break. We felt very comfortable in the hotel and we loved it. Hotels are in the service industry, yet very few have any idea how to make guests comfortable. Not so the River Lee Hotel. From the moment we arrived we were treated with genuine friendliness by...

I've stayed at this hotel possibly 5 times now, sometimes on business, others as a couple or with friends. The fact of my repeat business is a sign that I like the hotel! I love the location - it's a lovely quiet area but a short walk (5 mins) to Patrick Street, English Market etc. UCC is nearby and the... More

I found the river lee hotel to be absolutely amazing. They truly made our big day (engagement party) so much more enjoyable, with their relaxed atmosphere, exceptional service and attention to detail. I have stayed in many hotels and can honestly say that the river lee hotel and staff is a class above the rest. I would highly recommend it... More

We stayed here last saturday night and I have to say it was a lovely spot, Close by the city, bright, airy and spotless. Lovely fresh smell in the corridors and bedrooms. As a coeliac I always bring my own bread however the waiter (who was most attentive) advised that the hotel had their own bread and also offered me... More

As soon as we walked into our executive room we knew this would be our go-to hotel in Cork. The level of comfort and attention to detail made our stay so relaxing and easy - we had originally booked for one night but very soon decided to stay a further night to totally enjoy the experience. If I had known... More
