Maldron Hotel South Mall Cork City
The room and bathroom were spotless, and the amenities (tea and biscuits) were good. The hotel's location was ideal, though very busy and a bit noisy on Friday and Saturday nights. Overall, an excellent value, and we were able to prepay for discounted breakfasts.

Park Place Apartments
We had an excellent stay at Shoreline Apartments in Galway. The location is unbeatable right by the water, within walking distance pubs, shops, restaurants.. all are in a walking distance. Open the balcony to the view of the river each morning was truly beautiful and made our stay feel extra special. ...

The Reserve at Muckross
We were so delighted with our stay. It's just pity that we only had to stay overnight and did not really enjoy the place but we'll be back soon. I will definitely come back here and recommend this to my famil and friends. The price is also cheap for a 2bed apartment.
