Cork, Ireland - where to stay?

Question

Can anyone recommend a good hotel/B&B in the centre/lively part of Cork, with good access to public transport from airport etc.

Answer 1

The Gresham Metropole, the Imperial

Answer 2

cork city is small, therefore the links to the airport are all convenient.  the only way to get to the airport is by bus [or taxi but it's expensive [10-15 euro compared with 4 eur on the bus]  as for hotels, there is the Clarion,Metropole and Issac's hotel, but they will be at least 100 euro per night.  there are many B&B's in town, especially on Maccurtain street which is a good place to stay, less than 5 mins walk to the centre of town and the same from the bus station.   the below website gives locations of different B&B's

Answer 3

Try Jury's Inn. The Metropole and Imperial would fleece you!
