   Service was outstanding, had the chowder soup which was a bit to thick for me , had another starter as my main because there wasn’t much of a choice in the main section, but it was gorgeous. And we were surprised with a selection of desserts as it was a joint birthday celebration , we were really touched by the gesture.

   Most of the cocktails we ordered were not great and not worth the money.

    Service was very slow, we had to wait 20-25 mins between courses, and when the main course did come mine was slightly burned on the burger bun

    I thought the service was excellent and friendly throughout. I felt a genuine human warmth that went far beyond anything you can learn from a process manual. I thoroughly enjoyed my first ever afternoon tea and would recommend it highly - compliments to the chef. The vegetarian korma was quite poor but everything else was first class. My room (216) was very comfortable but the traffic noise from street from 5.00 AM means you don’t get a full night’s sleep

    Food was really good and value for money but unfortunately the service was not great we understand there was a few trainees on the floor at the time. We would have liked to order another drink and desert but had to leave as we were doing to a show. We tried to get the staffs attention but the 3 of them were very focused on clearing a table.

    The food was good. Cooked and presented well however as seems to be the norm with modern dining if you don’t want to leave still feeling hungry you’ll have to add sides. I had 3 courses came home and ate a load of munchies.

    Was not clear with the time allotment of the 7pm course and thought still avail by 9pm as i was allowed to book that time. But orla made way to meet our needs and meddled in a way where we can still have a good and fine dine experience.

    Overall, it was a nice experience. Staff were good, although busy so sometimes found it hard to get their attention for drinks. My one feedback was that the fillet steak was like chewing rubber. It was cooked medium rare, which was fine but whatever they did to prep it, ruined it. Big shame considering this was the only main course meat on the tasting menu and it was shared between 2 people, per the style of the menu.

    Everything was lovely, had picked here as going to Show in Everyman, while the relaxed vibe is lovely, just to be conscious of people rushing to get seats! More our fault than the Hotel! Will definitely be back.

    Dear Ruth Many thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. I'm glad to see you enjoyed your time with us, and I hope to see soon for another pre show cocktail! Kind Regards Pierce Lowney Food & Beverage Manager

    On a pricey meal you would expect the chips to be hand made and cut not frozen pre-fried ones.

    I went there with my husband for my birthday. It was amazing. The bar staff were so lovely to me. One of the girls in the bar has a tattoo on her hand she was the most beautiful person ever. She helped me going up the stairs and everything. Ian in the bar is very funny. We had a lovely breakfast this morning with Lorraine. She couldn’t have been nicer. One thing I would say is that there are a lot of steps throughout the hotel and no ramps. That being said I would definitely go back to this hotel. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Very bad control! This app made a booking for the metropole hotel for breakfast but as you arrive to the hotel! The reception and restaurant mentioned that can’t accept us because they are only working for residents! Bad very bad communication between the app and the metropole hotel horrible services

    First time in Cork. Food was disappointing. Fish and mash potatoes. Fish (sea bass) was dry and overcooked and mash had no flavor. I had to ask for vegetables which were the most tasty part of the meal.

    We are 2 group of six, due to restrictions we are aware that we need to be in two tables but not aware that the other table would be on the other side of the earth. We requested to be placed near the other table cos its empty but… nevermind, we just rushed our food and went out.
