Maldron Hotel Shandon Cork
The automatic check in didn't work but the staff were helpful. Room was nice and spacious. Room service could be improved and the TV didn't work but the bed was great. I would stay here again as I think it was good value for money and a good location.

The noise was too much, so I requested a room change. However, I was informed that no rooms were available. I had an issue with my keycard even after being informed that I had to reserve a room.
