Great room in a great location

Fabulous location. Was a bit dubious at first as it is located in the student halls of the university but as soon as we opened the door to the room we were very pleasantly surprised and impressed. Great for close proximity to all the sights and in the evening the nightlife of Cork is just a 4 minute walk away. Would definitely come back as there are still some unfinished sights and sounds to be had.

Hugo house was a great short stay location for us in Cork. It’s typically student housing and had plenty of great amenities such as games rooms. We felt the entire location was clean, safe and excellent to travel to.

Great stay

Really nice room with overview of river Lee. The walks are very thin so you hear neighbours speak in their rooms, but people stayed quiet enough. Friendly staff and great location.

This place was amazing. The location is great with tons to see and do nearby. There's no onsite parking, however the staff will validate parking at a nearby garage that's a 5min walk away. The staff was friendly and we couldn't have been happier with the accomodations. I would definitely stay here again.

Was a little nervous when I booked this knowing it was a student housing “hotel” but my nerves were instantly gone after my first night. Staff was really nice and helpful, the room was cute and just what I needed. Mattress was what you’d expect in a dormitory, but for only 2 nights it was fine. Need your key card to get in basically everywhere so I felt super safe, and it was quiet too!

Okay for a short trip

Ok for 1 or 2 nights. These are student accommodations so do not expect extra comfort nor services. The rooms are noisy, no TV, internet was not working, small bed and no daily housekeeping.

The view of the river was nice but it was extremely noisy with people yelling and banging doors until 4am. When they say it is a college dorm, they literally mean it is a college dorm. It is cheap for a reason.

The rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable. The radiator in one room was on full despite it being a hot day. There are a few complexities finding the right apartments in each block and using the door locks. The room by the road was quite loud with traffic, even with the windows closed. The rooms near the back were quieter. The ensuite was clean and modern. I was very impressed with how calm and friendly the reception staff were.

Kitchen area on own floor as well as the floor our party stayed at was not as clean as it could be. One group’s dishwasher was broken. So meeting space was less than perfect. On the other floor, not sure if dishwasher was working. Dishes appeared to be dirty.

You get what you pay for. It was fairly dirty in terms of the floors and bathroom. The bed was clean but mattress was a rock and constant slamming of doors until 5am in the morning which could be hear every half an hour. No room temperature control so we were baking. Couldn’t open the window due to the noise outside.

Overinflated price. The most basic things were lacking. No bin in the room, the kitchen was filthy. Worktops covered in grease and food remnants all over the floor. Although tea and coffee were provided there were no cups! providing cups in the room with tea/coffee would be a better idea. On the plus side, staff were lovely, reception was spotless, bed comfy. Would stay again but only if the advertised price was at least halved!
