Hello.
I got to Ireland in March and am finalizing my itentiary and beginning to book hotels.

I am staying two nights in the Cork/Cobh area but I'm not sure if which city to stay the night in.
I've browsed hotels and haven't found any I really like in Cobh. But maybe I've missed some good ones.
Can anyone provide me with their tips and recommendations?

Thank you!!

Stay in Cork and visit Cobh for the day.

Agree with Macross. I stayed at the Imperial Hotel in Cork and made a day trip to Cobh. Cobh was so much fun as it has an audio visual presentation of the Titanic and Lusitana's last days. They also give you a ticket with a name of a real passenger who sailed on those ships. In addition the waiting rooms are what they were like in those days.

There isn't a great choice of accommodation in Cobh its a traditional Irish rather than Tourist location in the manor of yacht and golf foodies Kinsale these days. Cork has a far greater choice of Accommodation.

Do visit Kinsale

In Cork, the best hotel is Hayfield Manor

A relative stayed at the Commodore Hotel in Cobh while we were in a B&B. I think he liked it.

Much to do in Cobh.

Commodore is a great hotel, really friendly, comfortable and clean but a bit dated perhaps for some. Surprisingly Fota Island resort seldom gets a mention when folk are looking for 5* accommodation. wonderful place bu way above my budget these days.

Thanks for all the recommendations! I think we're going to stay overnight in Cork and make a day trip to Cobh.

I have heard about Kinsale being a great place to visit. What do you recommend doing? Should we make plans to visit this town?

We called in at Kinsale Crystal and would have had a tour but the owner/crystal maker had gone to Cork City for plumbing parts! So we just shopped and moved on.
