About this place Maryborough Hotel & Spa

The Maryborough is a mainstream four-star hotel on Maryborough Hill in Douglas, about 10 minutes' drive south of Cork city centre. It's gay-friendly, not a gay hotel. The original country house is now part of a larger modern building with a spa, a restaurant and gardens around it, and it's popular for weddings, conferences and spa weekends. It holds a 4.5 rating from more than 1,600 reviews. Douglas Village Shopping Centre is close by. For Cork's bars and restaurants, including the city's small LGBTQ+ scene, plan on a taxi or bus into town.

Pure luxury yet warm, welcoming and cosy. The Summer Package was absolute bliss; it felt like a complete haven and holiday from the hustle above ground. The facilities are simply wonderful; hygienic, well resourced and excellently maintained. The warm water in the thermal suite was so nurturing and soothing; a great contrast to freezing Irish seas. Extra special thanks to Ellie; who upon arrival greeted us with a beaming smile, she just brightened our day and enhanced our experience tenfold; such a warm and genuine welcome, her genuine excitement for our day out together was infectious. My therapist Ava; so incredibly professional and talented-thank you, it was food for the soul. I never fall asleep during treatment but I felt so relaxed in your care I actually drifted off. Thank you all-keep doing what you do so well. We are making our trip annual now, see you all next time. Le grá x

We didn't stay at the hotel but had a beautiful meal in Bellinis. Really lovely presentation and superb flavours. The service was impeccable and the restaurant is nice and intimate. Surrounding grounds are lovely too.
