I stayed in this filthy dump for one night during the jazz festival. To say it's disgusting is an understatement.. We opened the door and were greeted with the worst odour, the room smelled so bad I actually checked the wardrobe to make sure something had'nt died in there. I've never smelled such a foul stench in my life, the... more

Booked this hotel for a hen weekend 10 lady's aged between 27 and 65 so needless to say we were not out to rave, Just wonting a central base to stay. After booking this hotel I read some poor reviews and was a little worried. We had 5 double rooms. I admit the hotel it self is old and in... more

I have read almost all of the reviews for this hotel SINCE I have stayed here. We were driving through Ireland and did not book ahead so we ended up in Cork and then at the Victoria hotel. Of all the hotels we stayed at in Ireland this was the most expensive and the worst experience. The hallways smelled of... more

No parking within 250metres so prepare for a walk. No disabled access so careful who you bring. The room had no door handle, the wardrobe had no back and the chest of drawers was kept level by a piece of timber, a damaged electrical socket with exposed wires and a bathroom with the slowest sink drain ever recorded. Double glazing... more

My room was so cold that I left the hotel with a head cold, which I am still suffering from. Because of the price, I wasn't expecting much from my room, but it was beyond basic. There was no kettle and no toiletries, the floor boards squeaked, the bathroom was filthy, my room was full of flies, there was chewing... more

This place is the worse place I have ever come across. It was a total waste of money since the hotel doesn't give you anything of what it promises to do. The bathroom was dirty and the tub was full of some stinky mold which I'm sure has been there for the past year. The stink was unbearable probably due... more

Cork is a great City, friendly locals and an alternative to Dublin which I think is is overrated. The Victoria Hotel is in a superb location, right in the heart of the City. The staff were friendly and helpful with local knowledge. We ate in the bar which has character and a charming bar men. It offers the same food... more

We chose the Victoria because of its central location and relatively low price. It is an old hotel with some red velvet and chandeliers. But too much "character" makes for hassles here. You can park on the street long enough to unload, then move to the parking garage around the corner. It cost us 16 euros from 5 pm till... more

Despite the brave efforts of one single member of the staff to go against the grain and be helpful and friendly and the fantastic location this is a terrible hotel. Dark, dank, smelly corridors covered in disorientating patterned carpets which lead into big but badly furnished and barely clean rooms. Unless you are going to spend most of the day... more
