Great Location&Staff—but interior courtyard rooms

Great hotel and staff. The only drawback was a courtyard interior facing room on a corner by a walkway…limited privacy and I missed fresh air during a 4 nite stay. Great location so would stay again but exterior.
Mona, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

No complaints - overall it was a nice, comfortable stay! Breakfast was a nice assortment and reasonably priced. Room was comfortable, staff were friendly and hotel was quiet. The gym and pool/sauna area looked great, but I was too busy to try them out. Overall decent stay, but no wow factor.
Liane, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

We enjoyed our stay very much, and the staff were very friendly, helpful, and kind.

Cork stay

The hotel is nicely located for pubs and restaurants. Check in was fine. We did not have enough towels and no washcloths. Room was a little stuffy. Parking underground was ok but you had to pay it was discounted. Avg hotel but nice front desk staff.

Best Cork hotel location & design NOT restaurant.

Thumbs UP for hotel. Two thumbs DOWN for restaurant "Globe". Hotel breakfast quite good enough. Great river view.

Lovely hotel and special touch for Easter weekend

Great weekend. Room was big for three of us and they provided a baby cot. Extra special touch when they got in touch with the Easter bunny to make sure all the children in the hotel had an egg hiding in their room

Miguel, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Room was lovely, except for the noise from the street was constant, keeping windows and curtains closed helped muffle the sound. Dinner at the hotel restaurant was tasty. Parking was plentiful and the discount was great. The Pool was not child friendly. Main pool was for people doing laps, the hot tub was not very hot and we were told my teen was not allowed in it. There was a small wading pool suitable for toddlers.

Great place to stay. Excellent location. Breakfast was delicious, The bar had great drink and the bartenders were awesome. It is a 10 or 15 minute.Walk to the train station and is directly across the street from the bus station. It right on the river and there are plenty of restaurants and shops with in walking distance

10/10 Exceptional

To be honest, the Clayton Hotel surpassed our expectations. The staff were courteous and polite, ever willing to help. The room was spacious and equipped with modern amenities that met our needs. Our room was a nice place of refuge after exploring the City daily. We utilised the swimming pool, which was a hit with the family, who enjoyed daily swims. Overall, our stay was excellent and memorable. When we visit Cork, The Clayton Hotel will be our accommodation of choice. Thanks for a wonderful experience.
Eyinmisan Nicks, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Was there for a gig taking place at the virgin media park. The hotel is right by the bus stop to from the airport which was about a 20 minute ride from, cost of about 1.50e one way. The bus station and other stops was also literally 5 minute walk from the hotel. The venue itself also a 10 minute bus ride. Walkable from Oliver Plunkett street and the main streets for shopping/pubs etc. I’d contacted the hotel beforehand to see if the pool and other facilities would be accessible before and after checkout as we had early and late flights, and they promptly responded advising they were though we didn’t end up using them. The hotel kept our bags all day before checking in and all day after checking out. Staff were all really friendly and welcoming and helpful. The room was a deluxe double bed and single bed absolutely ideal for 2 friends to share or for couples or a family for an over night or as a base. Would stay again. No problems
