Summer has finally arrived and here, at Hotel Isaacs, we are basking in the delights of sunshine and the newfound warmth the days are bringing. We have added some fresh seasonal additions to our fine dining restaurant-Greenes and of course, what better way to check out our pretty courtyard with its very own waterfall than with some of the sensational cocktails on offer at Ireland’s number one cocktail bar, Cask? Of course, one of the many wonderful things about a …
Ah there’s a grand old stretch in the evenings! Yes, the clocks have sprung forward, the birds are singing, the lambs are leaping, and suddenly, the world is awaking from its winter slumber. Here at Hotel Isaacs, we love this time of year as we excitedly celebrate the delights of spring and being able to fit that little bit more into our days as we embrace the long-awaited seasonal changes. Of course, spring is a great time to shake things …
And almost as quick as you can say “Boo” Halloween has been dumped and replaced by Christmas. No hard feelings eh? We certainly don’t. Christmas is our favourite time of the year at Hotel Isaacs. Glitter, tinsel, trees, lights, baubles…you name it, we have it! Yes, our elves have been busily decorating our boutique hotel the past week and we can’t wait to show you. We like to create our own Winter Wonderland at this time of the year. Our …
Autumn is here and it’s one of our favourite times of the year at Hotel Isaacs. Crunchy leaves, warming colours, a hot new cocktail menu in Ireland’s number one cocktail bar Cask, seasonal savoury dishes at our award-winning fine dining restaurant Greenes, refreshing walks, festivals…the list goes on and on. Travelling off season of course has its perks-less crowds, more time to saunter the streets peacefully, easier to make reservations at some of Cork’s best restaurants and bars and of …
Tis’ the last days of summer. Whilst it is somewhat normal to bemoan the slow but sure arrival of autumn, there is something refreshing about the (slightly) cooler temperatures, the impending cosiness and the general autumnal lushness that awaits us. September is frequently seen as a month to reset after a hectic summer. The kids have returned to school, you’ve made it through an intense summer of non-stop activities and now, there’s that moment to breathe and think “what now?” …
Can you believe it’s already July? Where did June go? Maybe it’s a case of time really flying when you’re having fun! We certainly are having lots of fun this summer at our boutique hotel. Greenes Restaurant diners are loving the chance to dine alfresco by our waterfall and Cask Bar has just launched its summer menu. We admit we are a little bit obsessed with it. Travel has well and truly bounced back, and we are loving the buzz …
The best time of the year is here and even the weather seems to be cooperating these days as we glide into the summer months. Our boutique hotel loves summer and suffice to say we are definitely in the mood for some summer adventures. Ireland’s number one cocktail bar, Cask is already putting the final touches to its summer menu (is there really any better combination than summer and cocktails?), our award-winning Greenes Restaurant is set for some alfresco dining …
After two years of no international travel, there has never been such an intense demand to travel again. We are certainly gearing up for a busy season as we welcome back our international visitors to our city-centre boutique hotel in the heart of Cork City; for many the real capital of the Emerald Isle. Of course, getting back into the swing of travelling again involves a little bit of preparation. There’s packing to be done, itineraries to be drawn up, …
Spring is in the air and with only 3 weeks until the clocks spring forward, never has it been a more apt time to utter that well-worn phrase: ‘Sure, there’s a grand old stretch to the evenings’. Spring is definitely making itself known here in our city-centre hotel. The longer days and abundance of early-blooming daffodils, combined with the further lifting of restrictions has certainly (forgive the pun) put a spring in all of our steps as we eagerly await …
The Toy Show is over! The madness that is Black Friday has passed (phew). It’s finally December! We can don our Christmas jumpers, go carol-singing, attack the 12 Pubs and start stocking up on endless supplies of socks for Dad (yes, we know we said we’d be more creative with our gift ideas, but maybe next year). Tis’ the season to be jolly here at Hotel Isaacs as we busily put the finishing touches to our festive decorations. Definitely come and check …
