Top hotels in Wilton
The Dean Cork
The location was great. Hotel was well appointed. Staff was very friendly (especially Maeve). Standard rooms are a tight fit but cute. Sadly, construction blocked the views of the water. Pool was tepid and steam room didn't work. All in all, would stay here again.

Premier Inn Cork City Centre
Great location although there is significant construction and I specifically booked this hotel for the parking and the parking is an approximately 10 minute walk from the hotel. The hotel could have been a lot cleaner, too.
