HOTEL OVERVIEW

Hotel Gresham Metropole Cork - Venere.com

hotel outside

Situated in the heart of Cork, the Gresham Metropole hotel is just a short stroll from the many excellent shops, boutiques, theatres, galleries and of course the business district of Cork, making it an ideal location for breaks and business travels.

The hotel allows a full immersion in the spirit of the city, thanks to its closeness to many local attractions such as the Cork Opera House, the Everyman Palace Theatre or the Queenstown Heritage Centre in Cobh, which recites the fascinating story of the Irish Emigration to America. The shopping areas nearby are also worth visiting.

Among the many services offered are a bar, a restaurant, a business and a wellness center, banquets, and wireless Internet access throughout the hotel.

HOTEL REVIEWS

Average rating:

7.5

Guest type: Mature couple

stayed in Dec 2007

The staff were very friendly and helpful, leisure centre was reasonably well-equipped though the equipment seemed a bit out-dated. Food traditional and a bit bland but good quality. Without venere.com we would not have managed to stay at the hotel as they refused to take a one night booking over the phone(because it was Boxing Day) but they accepted the venere.com booking without any questions.

Guest name: AM, United Kingdom

HOW TO REACH THE HOTEL

By car
From Cork Airport (N27): on exiting Cork Airport you will approach a roundabout, on the main Cork to Kinsale road (N27). Take the first exit off this roundabout towards Cork City. Go straight down the hill, passing through the two sets of traffic lights, until you reach the large roundabout at the bottom of the hill. Take the third exit off the roundabout, to the City Centre (N27). Continue straight on through four sets of traffic lights. You should now be on the second lane on the left, and be turning left at the next junction (after the Elysian Building - 18 storey building on your right). Passed this building, you need to turn right at the next junction, as to cross the river. Continue straight on now, until you come to a T-junction, where you need to turn left. You should see the Gresham Metropole Hotel on the opposite river bank. At the next set of traffic lights, turn right to cross the river, go straight through the next junction, and then turn right at the following set. You are now on MacCurtain Street, the Gresham Metropole Hotel is situated 200 mètres ahead on the right-hand side.

Continue straight on, you will come at the road along the River Lee, do not cross the river at any point. Keep going straight on, and you will come to the rear of the Gresham Metropole Hotel (large yellow painted building from rear), once you have past the hotel, turn right at the next set of traffic lights.
