Sunken Victorian Garden
After a busy day, be it at meetings or shopping in Cork city, we invite you to wander through our sunken Victorian garden during your stay and enjoy the aromatic scents of lavender, myrtle and rosemary while the soothing sound of our fountain relaxes both mind and body.
The original building of The Montenotte Hotel was formerly home to a Merchant Prince of Cork over 200 years ago, and it's heritage was reaffirmed when the sunken Victorian garden were rediscovered in early 2017. The wonder of this secret garden was hidden due to overgrowth but thanks to a labour of love, our landscape gardeners have restored this unique feature to its former glory for guests to enjoy.
The Gardens were designed by Dominik Cullinane from Dominik Cullinane Garden Designs. We have an amazing Team of three Gardeners here at The Montenotte Hotel.
Being one of the top hotels in Cork, there are so many unique experiences at our Cork hotel including enjoying a stroll in our splendid Victorian gardens, taking in the unrivalled views of Cork City and harbour, savour a delicious meal in the Panorama Bistro while you can also opt for some outdoor dining and drinks on our heated botanical Panorama Terrace. You now have The Glasshouse to visit, where guests are led from the Panorama Terrace of the main hotel, down a sweeping staircase, connecting to a new purpose-built glass bridge to the terrace of The Glasshouse and are greeted on arrival by an impressive tall apex glass exterior and stunning soft pink outdoor furnishings, the views of the garden from here are stunning

How to Plan the Perfect Luxury Spa Experience
How to Plan the Perfect Luxury Spa Experience
We all hear talk about self-care, but why is self-care so important? Self-care means being mindful of our own needs, taking the time to do things that help us feel well and live well.
Self-care impacts both our physical and mental health as it can help to eliminate or reduce stress, anxiety, and depression. It can also minimise frustration and anger, increase happiness, improve energy and concentration, better our mood and much more.
In other words, self-care is important because when we take care of ourselves and are not stressed then naturally, we are better able to meet the needs of others. Life is a healing journey and it starts with self-care and self-awareness of one's needs.
