My husband and I a wonderful time visiting Cork city and staying at the conveniently located Issacs Hotel near the river and all the shopping and dining at our doorstep. The hotel is a remodel of a historic property with touches of antiquity instead of the usual boring hotel box. The staff were all super friendly and helpful, even allowing us to check in a bit earlier when they were full to capacity on a Saturday night before Easter Sunday. The bar and restaurant is lively attracting locals as well as tourists but I didn’t feel it was excessively noisy in our room and the party disbanded at an appropriate time to get a good nights rest. We thought the breakfast buffet was above average for its type and they brought out an enormous pot of coffee right away. Thanks. We’d definitely return if we’re in the area again.

Loved the location of this property. It is located in a walkable shopping and dining area. It’s conveniently located near Blarney Castle and Cork City Gaol, if you’re looking for some historical sight seeing. The St. Patrick’s Street shopping district is worth checking out also. There is a car park within a few minute walk which was easy access. The staff were friendly and the room was comfortable and clean. We would definitely return for future visits in Cork.

This historic place is in a walking distance to many bars, restaurants and English Market and downtown Cork. Staff is very polite and accommodating to requests. Not too many choices in breakfast menu.

My favorite hotel when visiting Cork. Even though it’s not close to UCC, where my daughter is, I always chose Isaacs over other hotels. It’s clean, not too big and charming.
