My stay at Rochestown Park Hotel was a mix of highlights and disappointments. The hotel was clean and the breakfast service was excellent, with plenty of options available. However, I encountered issues like the lack of daily room servicing and the air conditioning that was too noisy for comfort. While the reception was friendly, staff responsiveness during certain situations could be improved.

My one-night stay at Rochestown Park Hotel was overall pleasant, highlighted by spacious rooms and excellent dining options. Although there were some issues, such as basic bathroom toiletries and the air conditioning not functioning, the staff's friendliness and the cleanliness of the rooms made the experience enjoyable.

Rooms

I really liked my spacious room with a huge window that provided a lovely view. It was clean and the beds were comfortable, but the bathroom toiletries felt too basic for a four-star hotel.

The food in the restaurant was excellent, and I appreciated the option for room service with the same menu. The table service during breakfast was nice but made it a bit awkward when I couldn't choose what I wanted.

My stay at Rochestown Park Hotel had its ups and downs. The location was beautiful, and I enjoyed the size of the hotel, but noise was an issue on my first night, making it hard to sleep. The beds were incredibly comfortable, which definitely helped my experience overall, but I did encounter a few service hiccups during my stay as well.

Rooms

7.0

I stayed in a double room, which, while roomy, overlooked a parking lot and had a view that was not too appealing. It could be designed better as my sleeping experience was marred by noise, especially on the first night. However, the beds were so comfy that I found it hard to get up in the morning.

Service

6.0

The reception staff was amazing and very helpful, which I really appreciated. However, I did experience some delays in bar service and encountered a bartender who had a bit of an attitude. The pool area service was also quite slow at times.

Location

8.0

The hotel's location was fantastic! Surrounded by lovely trees and mature landscaping, it made for a great atmosphere. Plus, it was convenient for traveling around Cork, but I wish the surrounding areas could have been tidier.

Dining

7.0

I found the breakfast to be decent but somewhat rushed. The dining area seemed to push for quick turnover, which took away from the experience. Yet, the food was generally enjoyable, and I appreciated the attentive staff during breakfast hours.

Facilities

6.0

The leisure centre had a good array of facilities, though it seemed a bit overcrowded with non-hotel guests. I was not a fan of needing to buy a cap for the pool either, which added an unexpected extra cost to my visit. Overall, it met most of my needs but did have a few points of frustration.
