My exchange semester in Dublin would not have been the same without the accommodation on Cork Street. Moving to a capital city was an overwhelming idea, especially given the housing situation in Dublin. I was extremely lucky to find a place there right before my arrival and eventually it became more than just a place - it became a home away from home. I made use out of all the facilities starting from the gym, to the study rooms where I spent so much time studying and to the cinema room where I was watching movies with friends. The kitchen was very spacious together with the common area, and the rooms were very cozy. The location was great, as I walked to the city centre almost every day. But what truly set this place apart was the incredible staff! They were very helpful, always at the reception no matter the time of day/night and I truly miss receiving a smile every time I passed by! This place will always have a special place in my exchange experience!

Here! Cork Street Dublin 8 is everything I needed / wanted as a college student. The building was obviously recently constructed as bathroom, kitchen, windows bedroom etc. are modern, stylish and comfortable. En suite rooms have perfect mix of private/social aspects with flatmates. The communal roof-top, courtyard, living room and gym facilitate fabulous friendship building opportunities and the staff are very responsive and helpful. Location is unbelievable. Within minutes you can be strolling through St. Patricks Park and pop out near the never dull Camden Street. Could go on but will refrain - no one paid me to say this, just a happy resident.
It is so lovely read such a strong and positive review of our site. What more can we say about this review except to offer the same experience to future residents. Regards Cork Street Team !
Great location, well maintained by the management team and cleaning staff. Highly recommended
Hi there! Thank you for your review, we appreciate your feedback grately! We're happy to hear that you are enjoying your stay with us at Here! Cork Street.
Flat mates smoke in apartment kitchen, conversations with both flat mates and staff didn’t solve the problem. One vacuum available for the entire apartment complex. Room wasn’t clean when I arrived, sink was clogged. Took them two days to fix it. No bedding. No kitchen equipment (microwave, oven, stove available). No plates, no pots, no pans, no cutlery. No trash bins. Premises is clean. Staff is friendly. Modern furniture. Nice rooftop. Expensive!!!

Obviously the rent is way too high. Other than that, the building is very clean and the management team is super friendly and helpful. Maintenance issues are always fixed promptly, and there’s always someone at reception to help you with any question you might have. I wouldn’t want to be in any other student accommodation.
Hi there! Thank you for your review, we appreciate your feedback grately! We're happy to hear that you are enjoying your stay with us at Here! Cork Street.
My main issue is with the main management. There have been a variety of issues and there has either been no response from management or the time taken to respond has been abhorrent. There is a complete lack of communication between the management and the residents, and between the management team themselves. The issues include lack of follow up on issues, and residents in my flat being told different things about the issues. I have not felt heard at all by the management, and felt as though we as students are not been taken seriously. It is evident that the team is not competent to deal with issues efficiently or effectively.

Overall I’ve loved my stay at Cork Street. The staff are lovely and location is fabulous! The rooms are excellent as well. No complaints
Hi there! Thank you for your review! We appreciate your feedback, it is grately appreciated. We are delighted to hear that you have enjoyed your stay at Here! Cork Street.
The main issue I have with this accommodation is the management on site. I have reported many issues that have taken extensive amounts of time to be resolved with some still ongoing. We don’t always feel heard as students with our reports not being treated with urgency. There have been times when there has been poor communication between staff and ourselves with multiple house members getting told different information.

Hi there! Thank you for yoru review it is greatly appreciated, we are delighted to hear that you are happy with our facilities and we value your feedback.
From here cork street - I have been living here for about a year now and the service has been excellent thus far. The management has been very supportive to any of my queries or requests. Also, Damien in particular, has helped me a lot right through my stay here and would happily recommend this place to students as there is good connectivity to most universities.
We are so happy to hear that you have enjoyed your stay at Cork Street and found our team members helpful and friendly. We aim to make our students stay with us as pleasant as possible, aiming for that home away from home experience while during your free time get to meet new friends on site and discover all the amazing sites and nightlife Dublin has to offer, all within a short distance from Cork Street. Regards Cork Street Team
Great new and modern house in Dublin 8 in a very nice and fairly central area. Everything you need is within walking distance (1 minute Lidl, 15 minutes Temple Bar, 20 minutes Trinity) yet with a bus stop right outside. Since the beginning of the year, a new management has been in place, which really deals with problems differently and shows much more commitment to the residents. Prices are comparable to other student housings. Tip: If you like it quieter, you should avoid rooms facing the street, which is quite busy (go for Block B and C).
We are so happy to read your amazing feedback and sharing how easy it is to reach local amenities. We feel you got to know the site and area very well which in reading your review other students will feel a lot more confident when booking with the team @ Cork Street, many thanks.
One of the best student living experience, one can ask for. Great social spaces, spacious personal rooms and living rooms, interactive events, and the best management team on call. A special thank you to Damien Daly and Stacey Sheridan for their warm hospitality and consideration for everyone.
Many thanks for your lovely feedback and including the kind words for the team. We love our role as a team, from meeting our new students, to assisting them with queries but eventually to see them settled and enjoying all that the site has to offer, from social spaces, great bedrooms and lots of social activities throughout their stay. Thank you.
Great management! Damien ensure all issues are addressed and resolved in the most appropriate and efficient ways.
Many thanks for your positve review. We appriciate your kind words regarding the team and feel happy that you felt listened to and secure while you stayed with us.
It has been lovely staying at this beautiful accommodation coming from home 7000 kms away.
Dear Valued Student, Thank you for taking time to send us your lovely review. We take pride in keeping Cork street up to the best standard thats expected by all our students. Best regards, Cork street Team
Amazing accommodation with amazing interior and facility. The management is very friendly and it is one of the best accommodation in Dublin.
Dear Valued student, We were delighted to read that you found our property Amazing. We strive to keep up our high standards throughout the year. Great to also hear that you found our team at cork very friendly & suppotive. We enjoy making our students feel at home. Many thanks, Cork street Team
I am very happy to have lived here, especially since the current GM, Damian Daly started his work, the place became more than just an accommodation service, but gained a family atmosphere. I am happy to have stayed here.
Dear Student, Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a lovely review. We were delighted to read that you felt at home during your stay at Cork street. I will pass on your kind words to Damien as I am sure he will be pleased to hear. Best regards, Cork street Team
The most unfriendly staff I've ever had to deal with. Once I wanted to get a parcel from reception. The woman was totally annoyed by me asking anything and then threw my parcel on the counter. If it would have been fragile, it would have been broken by that. Luckily it was mostly cloth.
I'm sorry to hear you've had a disappointing experience but thank you for your feedback which is invaluable to us and encourages us to further better our service. Cork Street Team
Staff don't do their jobs, THEY LOST MY MONEY for 4 months!!! I paid my rent on time and they lost it somehow and because they don't give you actual receipts you have no real proof of paying. Also when you go to ask them anything they respond without care or sympathy, they don't take down which packages come regularly so when you go to ask them if there is a package for you, instead of checking the storage room they tell you to check an excel sheet (which they dont update on some days - Sundays are understandable but Wednesdays???) and when you ask the security guard 2 hours later, the package is magically there... The rooms were dirty when moving in so people had to call for staff or clean them themselves. There are many problems which you pay WAY TOO MUCH for, for example: the buttons to flush the toilet don't work properly in many rooms, the drains are clogged so you have to pull out someones hair out of them when you move in, heating doesn't go below 25 in some rooms -sleeping suck
