The Kingsley had a great location just on the edge of town which made it convenient to get in and out. Beautiful setting adjacent to the river. Very quiet and the staff was so very friendly. The beds were very comfortable and the bathroom huge!

This is excellent hotel enhanced tremendously by the most friendly and attentive staff. The hotel property is very spacious and kept very clean. The food served in the restaurants is very good too. Free access to the pool, sauna and steam room is an added bonus. In short, one doesn’t have to leave the hotel, everything is taken care of in the most luxurious surroundings. Don’t miss this gem of the hotel if you are in Cork.
