About the property

One of Ireland’s oldest purpose-built hotels, The Commodore Hotel overlooks Cobh Harbour. It offers affordable spacious rooms, a restaurant serving gourmet food, free Wi-Fi in public areas.

Rooms at The Commodore all feature elegant bathrooms with hairdryers. They also include TVs, tea/coffee making facilities and many have sea views.

The hotel's restaurant overlooks Cobh Harbour and specialises in traditional Irish and Mediterranean cuisine using local ingredients.

Situated on the seafront, The Commodore is within 300 metres of the Cobh Heritage Centre and the Lusitania Memorial. Cork International Airport and the city centre are a 30-minute drive away and Blarney Castle is just 40 minutes’ away.

The Commodore is now over 170 years old.
As a consequence of this unfortunately there are issues with accessibility both externally and internally for customers who may have some mobility issues.

  • MillerUnited States · Mar 6, 2026 9Exceptional

    Wonderful place to stay, a little pricey, but likely worth it for the extra comfort.

    Liked : Rooms were beautiful, with plenty of clothing storage. Bathrooms were recently updated and are quite modern. You have to reserve a table for breakfast at their resident restaurant, which requires paying out of pocket, which we did not do. We really appreciated being able to leave our luggage in the luggage room both before/after check out/in as we came/left on the train at odd hours.

    Beautiful clean hotel right on the seafront with wonderful staff and excellent service

    Liked : Staff were amazing, room was excellent very spacious very clean

    Disliked : Not that I didn't like it, but the breakfast set up was unusual. Used to a continental breakfast layout. Breakfast in the bistro was a set menu with prices , which made me unsure as to what was covered in the prepaid breakfast. Staff were very helpful when I asked but would have been nice to have it explained prior to ordering
