What people said
- If I could do my recent trip over we would do this... day trip to Cork, stay in Kinsale rather than the other way around.
- River Lee is probably a more ideal location, nice and quiet, next to the university but just a short stroll into the city centre.
- We stayed at Hotel Isaac's. It's within walking distance of the trains, buses and restaurants so this was an ideal location for us.
