Belvedere House Cork Guest House, hotel in Cork

Belvedere House Cork Guest House is set in Cork, 3 km from Cork City Hall, 3.2 km from Cork Custom House, as well as 3.4 km from Saint Fin Barre's Cathedral.

I stayed at the Belvedere during a previous visit back to Cork so I knew it'd be a great stay. Excellent price and in a very convenient part of the city with close access to bus routes. Being from the area originally, I know my way around, but the easy transport access is certainly beneficial for tourists. Very comfortable rooms, great WiFi and a decently sized TV to keep you entertained on the standard rainy days.

Absolutely perfect for our stay, thank you Adam for making it such a pleasant visit . Bed was extremely comfortable, linens and pillows great. Lovely large room, not at all cramped, unlike some B&B bedrooms. Breakfast supplies were plentiful, the milk, juice and yogurts in fridge were a lovely surprise, as was loaf of bread and fruit & snacks. Toaster and kettle and fridge were such a bonus. Thank you

    The hotel is very charming, in an old building with a waterfall in the yard. Shops, clubs, pubs and restaurants are nearby, the city centre is 5 min by walk. Aircoach to Dublin in the same street. Breakfast was very good and not expensive. Wlan worked very well, the beds were comfortable. I got a quiet room on request in the 3rd floor (well isolated window). I would definitely stay here again!
