“ Apart from the dated decor, red swirly carpets and curtains, this is an excellent, reasonably priced, clean guesthouse. Nice view of the city, the staff are very friendly and helpful, especially Jessica who changed our room at our request. Breakfast excellent with home baked cakes and scones.... more ”

“ It was such a lovely and hospitable place, only thing is the pubs close early on mondays, except the Old Oak! Ask old men or taxi drivers where it is downtown. Fantastic stay but too short! ”

“ I felt like I was in more of a hotel here then a hostel. Everything in the facility was exceptional and the breakfast was excellent. It was just kind of pricey for the room but I enjoyed my stay. The free parking and breakfast almost make up for the extra cost. ”

Description of Gabriel House Guest House
Now under new management, we at Gabriel house would like to offer a warm welcome to old friends and new. Gabriel House Bed and Breakfast is situated on Summerhill, in the historic St. Luke's area of Cork city. Gabriel House is deceptively quiet for such a centrally located establishment. This is due in part to its setting, surrounded as it is by well-kept gardens and spacious private car parking facilities. Given its position, overlooking the eastern section of Cork city and the harbour, it's not surprising that the view from most of the rooms is very impressive. From here you can gaze out over the docks and the spires of Cork's churches and cathedrals, and the vista continues right out over the new South Link Road, into the countryside and beyond the city towards Ringaskiddy. The rooms are spacious and well appointed; all en-suite with a shower and TV . Rate includes a continental breakfast with tea, coffee, hot chocolate, a choice of juices, cereals, fruit, yogurt, toast, brown bread and jams. Full Irish breakfast available at €10. Breakfast is served from 7.30 to 10am.
