I know this hotel is 5 star and that might reflect the prices. We enjoyed our meal in Orchids Restaurant. I had the lamb main course and felt there was a lot of salt. Also it was quite difficult to eat as there was too much soup. My husband felt his steak was a bit bland. We really enjoyed the... More

Friendly but unobtrusive service made our meal out with friends a most pleasant experience. The five course set menu had excellent choice and everything everyone chose was great. A top choice for a special night out in Cork.

We stayed at the Hayfield 2 weeks ago. Having heard a lot about it,was looking forward to a nice meal. The main restaurant was closed so we ate in The Garden Bistro. The wine menu was a total rip off. We spent €54 on a bottle of wine. The waitress told us the wine was good. I don't think she... More

We had an occasion to celebrate recently and we chose Hayfield Manor. We had been there before so we knew it would be a good night. However, it surpassed all our expectations. From the moment we entered the hotel, we were treated like VIPs and made feel very welcome. We were quite early so we went in to the bar... More

The occasion was our daughters graduation. Our whole experience from time of arrival in the bar to departure that evening from the restaurant was top class. This is a 5 star hotel restaurant and from the setting to the hospitality received from all of the staff we met, this hotel is ideal for any special occasion. The presentation of the... More

In fact, something special. We stayed last week at the Hayfield Manor and decided at the last minute to eat at the hotel restaurant instead of something else that we had booked in advance. (After a long day on the train and walking for several hours around Cork, we got lazy.) Orchids is a beautifully decorated "special occasion" restaurant that... More

Very suprised that this restaurant is not listed as number one in cork. Truely outstanding in every aspect. The menu has been crafted in an inspirational manor and is an absolute credit to its creator. It is rare to be able to enjoy Michelin quality food at resonable prices and to have this special place in my hometown is truely... More

The setting and restaurant are fabulous, no question about that. Staff are friendly and helpful, but for a 5 star place, you would expect just that little extra for the money. They made a few simple mistakes, which was a shame. Food over all was very nice, but some of the dishes were a little bland - Again the WOW... More
