Just back from a night here! The food is fantastic the welcome afternoon tea is gorgeous the cakes are really really with a try! The breakfast menu is out of this world. It's five minutes walk from the city directly opposite UCC gates! The owner and man working on reception couldn't have been more helpful! I've stayed in a few... More

Garnish House is a good place to stay if you want to be close to Cork city - it is about a 10 minute walk to the main tourist area. Our room was a bit small with a very small bathroom. Breakfast was very good - we enjoyed the brown bread and the porridge.

I studied abroad in Cork and when our parents came to visit all my friends and I directed them here -- they all loved it. So, upon returning to Cork four years later for a visit my friend and I stayed here. The rooms are nice and clean. The staff is super friendly and breakfast is the best I have... More

My husband and I recently stayed at Garnish House for two nights while traveling in Ireland. The building is well maintained and in a great location in Cork. Overall, it was a good stay, but I have to admit that both my husband and I were a bit disappointed. With the amazing reviews we were expecting something....different, I guess? I... More

The house and the staff were great. We stayed for two nights while we bounced around Cork and found the location great. We loved being walking distance to the heart of the city and right outside the college. Also, if you are going to stay at the Garnish house, you have to try the full breakfast! Awesome and worth the... More

I was somehow disappointed with this B&B. The reviews were better than my experience. The hotel location is very good, A 10 minute walk to the city center and the best restaurants in town. The staff is friendly and attentive. The hot breakfast is made to order, well cooked, varied, and oversized, but the scones, soda bread and breakfast cheeses... More

I booked this B&B as a highlight stop during our three week tour of Ireland. We were sorely disappointed. When we arrived we were offered tea as promised, but due to my husband's case of food poisoning from the previous day we asked to just be shown to our room so we could rest. We were told our room was... More

We have just returned from a fabulous 3 night stay at Garnish House and would return again tomorrow! From the moment we walked in the door we were made welcome, tea, scones, cake and wonderful homemade fruit bread, all laid out and waiting a lovely suprise. The rooms are spacious, comfortable with plenty of soft, fluffy towels and comfy beds,... More

We stayed for two nights and were given a really nice, clean and big room. Location was convenient, though parking was a bit challenging. Staff was friendly and generally helpful. I'd definitely considering staying here again.
