Best Luxury Hotels in Cork
The Republic of Ireland’s second-largest city dates back to the 7th century and is found within a county of the same name. A coastal haven with a natural harbour, the area has a long and illustrious maritime history, along with a playful vibe. The small, pedestrian-friendly centre is known for its bustling English Food Market and bars with authentic live music. But venture further afield and there are multiple beaches, forts, castles – and Cobh’s Titanic Experience to be explored. Experience the ultimate in Irish grandeur as you stay in the country, by booking one of these fine hotels.

Hayfield Manor Hotel
(5 stars)An alternative city break destination, Cork’s is easily explored on foot and bubbling with culture. Spend your time here at the boutique Hayfield Manor, an 88 bedroomed central new build, that’s been designed with a heritage look and feel. While the property itself is but two decades old, the mature gardens date back well over a century. Two restaurants serve meals crafted from locally sourced ingredients (Cork’s famous market is but a stone’s throw away.) An outdoor hot tub is a particular highlight, plus there’s an ELEMIS spa, fitness centre (with pre-bookable personal trainers), a pool and a residents library.
