Very nice!!

Better pillows

This place has such potential if the owners would put in some good time updating the place. The biggest frustrations for us were the intense smell of mold in the entire building (there was so much plush carpet), the cleanliness of our bathroom floor, and the paper-thin pillows. However, the staff could not have been more fantastic. A person in our travel group was very sick, and the staff were quick to help give us access to a microwave and dish ware so they could enjoy some soup. It was a small gesture, but so kind and appreciated. The facility was not ideal, but the staff seems to really care about the customer experience which improved our experience.

The property was ok, not exactly what we were expecting, a bit more run down than the advert for it appears.

Nice small clean welcoming hotel.

Hotel was convenient but no bar or dining though. Room was very hot had to get reception to turn radiators off and provide a fan. Woken up by room next door arriving at 3am and were very noisy.

The hotel is way past due for an update. Our room smelled and there was no air circulation. The shower would not shut off and filled the room with condensation. Two days later it was still very damp in the room. It is an adult hostel level hotel. Not worth what we paid. On the bright side, the staff was extremely nice.

An interesting hotel…. Quite tired but yhe staff could not be more helpful. Arrived with Storm Babet which probably accounted for the water leaking through the light on the corridor! The house rules are like something from the last century but it was clean although my towels smelled damp.

It is very central and near to the main shopping areas and within walkable distance from the tourist attractions.

Close to busstation and citycenter. Very nice and helpfull staff. Some noise from the pubs close to the hotel.

Good pub across the street.

Not modern but very comfortable.

Cons: - The doors are hard to open, since it rubs against 2-3 layers of carpet. - The rooms have no floor space, to put suitcases without tripping over them - The bed is hard - Some of the pillows had stains - Two taps for hot/cold water both in the shower and sink - Cursed picture of a little girl in the shower - You shower standing in a bathtub, which is slippery even with the provided rubber mats - The whole bathroom gets wet and slippery after a shower Pros: - Nice and friendly staff - Good location

Hotel very close to town centre, bed comfortable and clean but hotel very dated and hallway stank of weed on the top floor

The stay was great. Certainly interested if the Ashley Hotel offers any discounts or rewards for customers. Would love to stay there again.

Clean quiet stay! The rooms look nothing like the pictures, the hotel hasn’t been renovated for 50 years. It feels like you’re staying at your nanas house. Staff are friendly and pub across the street is great!

I loved its historic character, perfect for experiencing Irish hospitality!

But very noisy at night. Comfortable enough, staff often seemed a little clueless. I was amused by the fact that they were not serving breakfast "due to covid restrictions" (in July 2022, nowhere else was under these restrictions) but had a sign in their window advertising for a breakfast cook! A little annoying as none of the local cafes opened before 8 (the one I was recommended didn't open until 9.30) and I needed to get out early in the mornings.

The place is quite dated but the staff were so friendly and helpful. It was clean and well kept. I was very pleasantly surprised. Quie expensive though.

Absolutely lovely.

We had two rooms for our family. One smelled bad if we shut the window. It was hot in the room so having the window open wasn’t a problem. The other room was warmer as it was up another floor. It remained hot in the room all night. It is in city center which is great for nightlife but no so great if city noise keeps you awake.

The Ashley hotel is the closest thing to a homeless hostel I have ever stayed in. On arrival checking into the room I discovered that the pillows had no pillowcases on, the pillows were stained and well worn. The hotel decor was like something out of a 70’s horror movie. Different colour carpets. The room had wood chip wallpaper which was peeling in parts. The bathroom had a mishmash of 3 different tiles. In general it was a horrific stay in a substandard hotel which was way overpriced.

Very kind and friendly receptionist. Comfy bed. Bathroom needs desperatly to be remodeled. Good location

I worked in the hospitality industry half my life and the attention to detail was immediately evident to me upon arrival. Ive been traveling five weeks and this has been my quietest most restful stop. I love walking and the access to a river walk all the way in to town was a big plus for me. Has all the warm and friendly feel expected of a family run B&B with the profesional detail of a hotel. Love this place!

Location was amazing and the staff was super friendly! However, the parking can be a bit tight, so I'd recommend the Q lot. The hotel is charming and old, but the lack of some amenities promised on sight and on signs in the rooms was disappointing and did cause issues during our stay. Overall, it was great for passing through Cork!

Hotel is in excellent location but could be doing with a refit very tiered and shabby

The Ashley needs a complete overhaul. No breakfast supposedly because if Covid but the bar was open with seating. Limited drink as they ran out. It was clean and the staff lovely but overall condition very poor

Good stay would go again

We had booked twin beds for a night that cost €103.53. Instead we were given a tiny room with a double bed because they supposedly had no twin bedrooms left.The room smelled damp, and the mismatched furniture was depressing. There was an old poster of "Out of Africa" hung on the wall, because nothing screams safari like Cork. It was cold because the heater was not working. The woman (who was not the manager) at the reception was kind enough to give us a tiny electric heater, and it's thanks to it that we didn't die during the night.The bathroom also had a bad smell, and the tub's drain stopper was removed to ensure we would not be able to enjoy a bath. On on our way out, we noticed the maid was cleaning a much nicer room with twin beds and nicer furniture, Unsurprisingly, that room had been given to Irish people.
