My Wife & I stayed here for two nights in October 2023. It is an excellent and very friendly B&B. The room was spotless and very comfortable. The breakfasts were very tasty (especially the home made wheaten bread). The B&B is very handy to the bus stops for the bus into and out of Cork City Centre. There is also enough off-street parking spaces for 6 cars so parking was very easy.

Perfect B&B ran by a very warm and helpful hostess ! Some highlights: - the room, bed and shower - all good, clean and comfortable - 5-star breakfast; all you could think of - her perfect useful advises, where to go / how / when / why A bit out of the centre (therefore quiet during the night) but within a few minutes by bus or taxi in the city centre.

I booked the Caroleville B&B since we were visiting family in Ballintemple. It turned out to be ideal. Susan and Dennis were impeccable hosts, the room was comfortable, peaceful and clean. Breakfast was generous, with a chance to chat with other guests. Plus, the bus connections into city centre were easy. We’d stay here in a heartbeat, and hope to return.

We fell in love with the beautiful home and the nicest, kindest, most interesting and generous hosts. Our room was bigger and better than the Morrison in Dublin . It had all the amenities and marvelous picture window. The family directed us to the Silver Key for lunch and it was amazing. The servers and bartender were welcoming and had marvelous suggestions for a delicious meal with heavenly wine and beer. We had authentic Irish music at Sim es and was so lucky to be there at the Venue for pizza and the Irish/South Africa rugby match . So exciting and the fans welcomed us in and taught us so much about the sport. Ireland won which filled the air with such glee and joy as only the Irish can do. All thanks to Susan and Dennis our hosts who directed us our whole time. They were so nice and wonderful to talk to. So much so we delayed our Kinsail grip for 2 hours just to converse with Susan. Quite a treat . We highly recommend Caroleville to all travelers looking for a delightful experience with wonderful people ,a beautiful place to stay, clean and safe and close to everything.

Carole Ville Guesthouse was probably my best experience in B&B. It's owned by a traditional and charming Irish family with great human quality and awesome dedication to their work. Susan, Denis, and Lord Benji are extremely friendly and welcoming, and that is a plus. Breakfast was super delicious too.

My friend and I had to travel to Cork at short notice for a funeral. I spent a day trying to find reasonably priced accommodation. To no avail - some places didn't bother getting back to me, many places were booked out, even low grade hotels wanted 400Euro for one night. We were desperate! Susan at Corole Ville came to our rescue - she moved heaven and earth to help us - setting up a very comfortable guest bed to meet our needs. The place itself is immaculately clean - all mod cons - quiet and comfortable. Very well situated, it's only an 8min drive from the Cork city centre. It's very resonably priced yet doesn't skimp on quality - the toiletries are eco friendly and are lovely to use. The buffet breakfast is sumptuous with a great variety of fresh produce. Susan and Dennis could not be more welcoming and friendly - great craic. Susan's mum even insisted on driving us across the city to the funeral. You really couldn't ask for more - don't hesitate to book!…

Our stay was really nice. The room was very clean and cozy and the breaktfast had more than enough to offer in my opinion. Furthermore the hostess was extremely friendly and she really wanted us to feel comfortable. I can only recommend this B&B to everyone! For me, a bonus was that we were able to stream movies in the room. :)

At CaroleVille BnB there is such a warm and cordial atmosphere, that you've got the idea of being at home. Susan and Denis are absolutely fantastic, helpful and deeply good hearted; they personally take care of their customers and nothing is left to chance. The rooms are elegantly furnished and in each of them there is a boiler, tea, biscuits and whatever may be useful to have a comforting stay, not to mention the rich and delicious breakfast, to which you can always add the best homemade porridge. I strongly recommend it.

We had a fabulous experience at Caroleville B & B. Susan is welcoming, friendly and helpful. She suggested great restaurants and gave excellent travel advice. The room was well appointed with a comfortable bed, sparkling clean linens and a nice shower. Our room even had a view of the beautiful garden in back. Breakfast was delicious, with lots of options to choose from. Susan was very kind to accommodate dietary restrictions as well. My husband and I have wonderful memories of our stay. We would love to return!
