The Best Hotels Near Saint Francis Provisions, by the Record
-
A sleek modern hotel on the banks of the River Lee, which is exactly what the name promises. Rooms face the water through floor-to-ceiling windows that earn their keep when the light is right. The River Club pulls in locals alongside guests, which keeps the bar from feeling like a hotel bar. A pool, sauna, steam room, and jacuzzi round things out for a city property. The Michelin Guide has it among its selected hotels.
-
An old estate perched on a hill above Cork, the Montenotte is a boutique hotel that went full 21st century without losing the bones of the original house. Bold colors and contemporary prints work against classic silhouettes, and the newer cabin suites trade city rooftop views for woodland green depending on your mood. The hilltop gardens and terrace bistro make the elevation feel like the whole point, and there's a private cinema, in case the view gets old.
-
The indoor pool hangs over the Atlantic, which is either the hotel's greatest trick or its most unfair argument for booking a second night. The Cliff House is a sleek, contemporary hotel on Ireland's south coast, an hour outside Cork, where every room faces the sea through floor-to-ceiling glass and the beds are the kind you negotiate with at checkout. A spa, a Michelin-starred restaurant, and very little reason to leave the property.
