Our stay at Imperial was excellent. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Particularly Ali and Adrianna and a special thank you to Brenda for our room upgrade! We didn’t mention it, but we are on a 40 day European tour to celebrate our 40th anniversary. Thank You,

The property was perfectly located. We read many reviews about parking being an issue. The reason the parking is a few blocks away is because the area near the hotel becomes mostly pedestrian at night creating a great scene for vacationers. There is a loading zone directly in front the hotel so you don’t have to lug your luggage. The bar was excellent with live music. This is a luxury hotel and would stay again on our next trip to Cork.

Our room was small. The sheets and wall was dirty. The fuse blew the first night so we had no electricity the first night. The staff did repair the problem quickly once reported. We also had tea at the hotel which was very disappointing. The cost was 45 per people and there were no choices. One server was vacuuming the floors during our tea service.
