    There a car park between Thomas St and Roches St, that may be the best option for you.

    Entrance off Anne St - google maps link here

    I would park in Cornmarket Car Park. It's on the street parallel to William street (See link below).

    OP's location is down as Cork, if that is their location then I thought Cornmarket would be more difficult to get to.

    It's not just the extra block, it's the convenience of getting to ad from the car park, narrower streets, the build-up of traffic on Wickham St, it's trying to find your way back onto a national route again.

    I think Cornmarket would be handy enough to get to. I would suggest the route in the link below

    first
    up wiliam stret -

    for thomes street carpark go all the way up to the "3 banks intesction" turn right and follow the route down upper graten street onto roches street and turn right we you see the carpark. when leaving just come out turn back onto roches street and your more a less back on route.

    for cornmarket. go all the way up william street take first left, take next left. your ther when leaving just follow the road around the block opposite nancys/smiths and your back to patrick street/o connel street.

    simples

    doesnt really make a difference othe than opinions
    my motto is always trust Tom.....................Tom...............:D

    Op I know you're getting a lot of different options here, but the easiest way to get parking coming from Cork, is take the M20 in as far as the intersection with the M7/N18, keep left for N18 and take N18 to next exit (Dock Road interchange) Take signs for City (will bring you back under Dual carriageway) Follow that road straight in until you see the river.

    When you see the river you'll have a roundabout in front of you, take right hand lane and go straight through the roundabout, follow the quays for 4 blocks and there's a car park on your right. (Basically get off the Dual carriage way and keep going straight until you see a car park to your right)

    Exit on foot through front of car park, cross road onto Bedford Row (pedestrian street), at top of Bedford Row take left and next right, you're now on William Street. If you don't know Limerick well, then this is the easiest option for you. (walk time to William Street from car park is about 1.5-2 minutes)

    Then to get back to Cork you do the reverse.
