The room

Six rooms, and they go early.

A private room at Brú is a hostel room with the door closed and a bathroom nobody outside the room uses. It is not a hotel room and we are not going to pretend otherwise, but it costs a fraction of one and it is five minutes from the train.

Six of them in the building, which is why they book out first. Five have the bathroom inside the room. In one the building would not allow it, so the bathroom is directly across the corridor instead and only your room has the key.

Booked as a room.

Not per bed, so the whole room is yours.

What you’re booking.

Every detail below is what you actually get in this room, not the hostel in general.

Sleeps

Two or three

Most are a double bed with a single bed overhead. One is a twin, with two single beds.

2–3 people

Bathroom

Your own

Every dorm has a private bathroom. In four of them the bathroom is not inside the room itself, because of the way the building is built, but it is still private to your dorm.

Nothing is added to your room rate at the desk. The rate you book is the rate you pay. Bring coins for the lockers, though — the machines don’t give change.

 Brú Bar · Ground floor

There’s a band on downstairs tonight. You don’t need a ticket.

Brú Bar is not down the road. It is the ground floor of the building you are sleeping in, with live music five nights a week and all the sport on our big screens. No other hostel in Cork has one.

Show your keycard at the bar if you booked direct and the first half pint of Beamish is on us.

How many people can stay in a private room?

Two or three. Most are a double bed with a single bed overhead, and one room is a twin with two single beds.

Do private rooms have their own bathroom?

Yes. Five have the bathroom inside the room and one has it directly across the corridor, with a key only your room holds. Either way nobody outside your room uses it.

Can one person book a private room?

Yes. If you want a door that closes rather than a dorm bed, a private room on your own is perfectly normal here.

Is it quieter than a dorm?

It’s a room with the door closed, but the bar is on the ground floor. Ask for a room at the back if you’re a light sleeper.

Not the one? Try these.

4 bed male dorm
