Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Hibernian Hotel & Leisure Centre from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests frequently appreciate the Hibernian Hotel's central location in Mallow, finding it perfect for exploring the town, with some noting its strategic position for accessing destinations like Killarney, Dublin, Cork, and Limerick. The hotel rooms are often described as spacious, especially the front-facing double rooms, and some have been recently renovated. The leisure centre, including the pool area, is also a highlight, with convenient access for guests; however, some guests in the past have experienced noise from the pub late in the evening. A good breakfast starting early is commonly mentioned, and the bar offers tasty food options like the chicken melt.

I found parking behind the building very convenient. I enjoyed the on-site bar . The outdoor seating area was a nice feature. The hotel's proximity to local attractions proved beneficial for quick trips around town.
I noticed some dated aspects in certain areas. This detracted slightly from the overall impression.

The TV service was great in the room (I could watch my favorite shows!). A fan was also available, I used it. The bathroom was quite nice. I was kinda surprised.
The hot breakfast offered limited choices. I would have liked some tomatoes and hash browns, for instance. I also noticed that brown soda bread was missing from the pantry for residents.

The staff provided breakfast bags as I had an early departure. The sauna was a welcome amenity. I found the elevator useful for accessing different floors.
The phone in my room was not working. I also noticed the shower tended to flood because it was blocked. A towel rail detached from the wall when I placed towels on it.
