    you should go into the cork international hotel..its into the right past aload of units before you get to the airport..

    Looking for somewhere to get a proper dinner, rather not a take away!

    Dunno if the bull mc cabes (half way up the hill at the lights) do evening food or not.. but theyre great. Other than that, the international airport hotel is nice. Wouldnt be too pushed with the radisson. There's a nice place in the terminal itself upstairs. Lovely lunches in there but again dont know what the deal is with evening food.

    There's also the place just off the Kinsale Roundabout on the airport road. Can't remember the name of it... standard carvery fare.

    Might be worth taking a small detour into Douglas, which is just off the South Link on the way to the airport. Or else I would stop in Midleton if you're going through it.

    Cork International Airport Hotel or the Radisson at Cork Airport. Food in both is lovely, but the former is worth seeing - the interior decor is something else!

    God - I never knew about the Cork International Hotel. It looks lovely. Must definitely go up for a drink in the rotating bar some evening!

    Tried calling the Hotel but no answer, so ended up having Subway. There was a lovely thatched restaurant on the way up that I had eaten in before but it was like 11 by the time we arrived up there.

    The hotel seems nice but the sign makes it look VERY tacky!

    Was supposed to be a radisson you see, but then the radisson group took over the great southern hotels. So with about two or 3 months before the opening they pulled out and it was just named the "cork international hotel". Shame, maybe a big group will take it over eventually
