Welcome to the haunting history of The Commodore Hotel in Cobh, Ireland—originally known as The Queens Hotel, this iconic hotel has been serving guests for over 170 years. With stunning views of the harbour, it’s a beloved spot for locals and travelers alike. But beneath its picturesque exterior lies a history of tragedy and ghostly tales that still linger in its halls.
In this video, we delve into the chilling events of May 7, 1915, when the RMS Lusitania was torpedoed by a German U-boat off the coast of Cork. The tragedy claimed 1,198 lives, and many survivors were brought to The Commodore Hotel, where a makeshift hospital and morgue were set up. Some believe the trauma of this disaster trapped the spirits of the lost passengers within the hotel, with unexplained noises and paranormal occurrences reported over the years.
We'll also explore the ghostly tale of a British serviceman who is said to have taken his own life in one of the hotel’s rooms. Guests have reported hearing footsteps, furniture moving, and cold spots in the area—experiences attributed to his restless spirit. But perhaps the most eerie tale of all is the story of a wailing infant heard echoing through the upper floors. Legend has it that a young woman, traveling with a baby, checked in during the early 1900s. The following day, staff discovered the baby’s lifeless body hidden in a suitcase in her room, with the mother having left for America, leaving behind only sorrow and mystery.
Join us as we uncover the eerie history of The Commodore Hotel, where the past refuses to remain silent and the spirits of the Lusitania’s victims may still be with us today.
