We had a function here. The stairs were filthy, doors hadn't been cleaned in weeks and the toilets were disgusting. Tea/coffee was cold - we had to order more. We had asked for biscuits as people travelled far - no biscuits! We asked for them again and when they came they were the tiny coffee biscuits. Receptionist was not helpful,... More

The staff were exceptionally friendly. The faculties were non functioning . Cold rooms - no heat - heating fixed but not working . Breakfast cold but watch the plates as they are very very hot ! Thought that should have been the other way around . Hot food cold plates but not in this place . Bar food was good... More

Have never stayed here, but had a meal there on Thursday evening. The staff couldn't have been friendlier and the steak was very tasty - generous portion with three differend sauces. Companion was also impressed with her meal. I'll be back.

We arrived at the Commons very tired after a days driving and sight seeing. The family room was excellent value and a great size for the family of five. The staff were very friendly and gave us advice on other attractions to see in Cork and the meals at the bar/ restaurant were massive and value for money. Breakfast was... More

Although the breakfast and bar areas seemed to be modern, the rooms are in need of a refurbishment. The woodwork needs to be repainted and the general décor is dated. However, the room was comfortable. Otherwise, the breakfast was good and the staff are very helpful.

We stayed here in August 2012 and I have to say that this is quite possibly the worst hotel I've ever experienced. The car park was a mine field with potholes which you would be hard pressed to avoid. Upon arrival at reception, the receptionist was on the telephone and although I appreciate that she was dealing with someone else... More

Stayed in the Commons Inn a few times and I found it to be a very clean hotel with large bed rooms. Every time I have stayed I have had dinner in the bar . The food was great. The only problem I had was that there was too big a choice on the menu. I found the staff in... More

Along with my wife I called in for lunch and we were really disappointed with the quality of food. It was cold and just had no taste. In addition I would rate it expensive compared to other lunch restaurants in the Cork area. We both agreed that we would never again go back for lunch or ant other function.

I really don't understand how people are down on this hotel, i have been going there for the last couple of years and find it to be a very clean and inviting place to stay, with the rate been very reasonable and both staff in the bar and on recption are always very helpful and just genuinely nice people to...
