I have mixed feelings about my time at Gabriel House. It doesn't have the warmth and charm which you normally expect from a B and B. It feels more like a budget hotel. Firstly I would like to mention some of the pros. The staff are friendly and efficient, the cooked breakfast is decent, and the property represents pretty good... More

Stayed one night with family.Got a great room at the top, with a view to the city.This was on third floor. No lift(Just as FYI). All clean and nice. The welcome was nice and warm.This is a guest house, so expect more than just another couple or two as you would find in a standard B&B.. In a nutshell all... More

Recently stayed for 2 nights for my friends 50th birthday. There were a group of 13 of us. All I can say is we were looked after really well, all staff were very helpful and polite. The breakfast was excellant and it was no problem to them that we had requested to all eat at the same time. Courtesy tea... More

This is a very big guest house so do not expect the cosy feel of a small B&B as some people tend to think B&B"s and guest... More

We stayed at Gabriel House for 3 nights and found there to be little to complain about except maybe the walk home from the city centre, up hill all the way or so it seemed. Cork is a great little city and we plan to go back there again and we will probably stay at Gabriel House. More

Although the desk staff were very welcoming and accommodation was adequate we were very disappointed with substandard breakfast and totally shocked when hotel attempted to charge credit card for second night even though they had been paid cash for the one night requested, then they accused us of smoking in the room and it was out of commission for second...
