I booked 3 nights at Anam Cara to visit my daughter, who was finishing a semester at University College Cork.

The city bus dropped me directly in front of Anam Cara, I rang the bell, and the door opened to a heavenly... More

I recently wrapped up a trip traveling throughout Europe with friends and was so impressed with my accommodations during my stay in Cork, Ireland, that I have been driven to write my first review ever! I arrived with 4 friends to Cork and we headed to the River Lee Hotel. After talking to reception for a bit, they were unable... More

I'm just after a two night stay in the anam cara, and as a location it would be excellent for most visitors to Cork: you have town on one side and the university on the other. After years in UCC I'm more than familiar with Cork, but assistance was offered from the start. You are only five minutes from Patrick... More

I chose Anam Cara from a short list of recommendations provided by the University. It proved the ideal place to stay: in sight of the main campus and actually next door to the department I was visiting. I was in a quiet room at the back with a superior bed and very good bed linen.

We really enjoyed our stay... More

We stayed at this B&B for 3 nites. We travelled 10 days in Ireland and this was the best accomodation we had. The beds are VERY high end which offers excellent sleeping. The owners Tim and Aideens are helpful and cheery. It was no problem for them to accomodate our late arrival and early departure. The rooms and bath are... More

I stayed in this BB one night and I had chosen it because its location. The Anam Cara is in the street of the Bed and Breakfasts in Cork and this one is the nearest to the centre. I also found out that was the cheapest of all the long street. The BB is nice as well as it was... More
