Ambassador

The Ambassador Hotel is an impressive sight on the skyline of Cork City, sitting perched on a hilltop overlooking the city centre in one of the oldest parts of Cork.

A historic building, the Ambassador hotel was built in 1872 and serves as one of the best examples of Victorian architecture in Cork. The building served Cork as a hospital until it was opened as a hotel in 1997 after being carefully renovated and restored to its former glory.

The past life of the Ambassador is clearly evident in its architecture, with plenty of wide open space in corridors and rooms filled with a sense of Victorian grace and charm. The comfortable lounge is set with cosy sofas and a large open fireplace while a resident pianist comes to occasionally tinkle the ivories making for a relaxing atmosphere.

The bedrooms are hugely spacious and decorated with taste and old-fashioned charm, while being equipped with all the necessary facilities. Some rooms have Jacuzzi baths and those that are front facing also feature balconies on which you can step out and take in the unparalleled views out across Cork City.

The Seasons Restaurant at the Ambassador has established itself among Cork's finest eateries. Set within elegant surroundings, the restaurant offers a diverse menu drawing from traditional Irish dishes with some modern twists.

The Ambassador also features a small health spa equipped with air conditioned gym, sauna, steam room and whirlpool spa.

The Ambassador is located perfectly for exploring Cork City and its cultural attractions, watching a show at the Everyman Theatre, the Opera House or visiting the Crawford Art Gallery. There are also a number of renowned golf courses within easy reach at Fota and the Old Head at Kinsale.
