Maldron Hotel South Mall Cork City

I stayed 3 nights. It was a very busy hotel that host private parties. I happen to have been there during a kids birthday party and several confirmations celebrations. The kids were running amuck everywhere, Parents were drinking and not being responsible for their children. I tripped several time because they were running underfoot. I woke twice two different nights to a fire alarm going off that was not part of their testing times. Thankfully they were false alarms! I woke one night after falling back to sleep after the alarm went off (2am? ) to a large group of drunk people singing at the top of their voices out side my window for about an hour before I heard someone threatened to call the police. I was then woke for a third and final time at 6 am by the garbage collection. So not a restful time spent. I will say the staff works very hard and maintained a professional attitude even in chaos. My room was clean well appointed . I wold stay again and ask to stay in a different section of the hotel.
