Historic backpacking hostel moves on to new era on Wellington Road

For generations of backpackers or students passing through Cork for a night, the An Oige hostel at 1-2 Redclyffe Place, Western Road was the place to grab a bunk.
Drenched Germans weighed down with backpacks, Scandinavian cyclists with loaded paniers or West Cork students in between flats this An Oige hostel always willingly gave a place to the traveller for the night.
