My partner and I stayed at this hotel on the 11th and 12th May 2013. What you see on the website of this hotel is far from reality as the pictures may have been taken when the rooms etc were virtually new/refurbished. We found the room to be in a very bad state so much so that I met with... More

I brought my family for a one night stay in two rooms on May 9th 2013. The hotel is situated a bit out of town, but it has a nice old world charm to it. The staff are all really nice and professional. The rooms however have been allowed to deteriorate some. So in room 207 where my father stayed... More

Stayed here for a night and booked out the bridal suite for a treat. The room was very nice but I was expecting ALOT more for a bridal suite. Good thing we weren't getting married it would have been very disappointing. It was advertised with a Jacuzzi but on arrival it was only a normal 1 person bath with jacuzzi... More

We stayed here for one night on a Living Social deal for €75 (I think) which included one night stay, a glass of wine each, chocolate dipped strawberries (one strawberry each sliced up), a voucher for the restaurant as well as breakfast the next morning. We definitely got value for money with this deal. The setting of the hotel is... More

We stayed for one night and our room was huge, if a little dated. It just needs a makeover really. Little things like dated decor and a plug that had a broken chain were minor, and so didn't affect our stay too much. We had breakfast at the hotel, which was great and had plenty of choice; in addition, the... More

We stayed here in April on a family break, all looked good until we got to our room. Grubby sheek to say the least. The arm chair was filthy and was fit for the skip, the tv was the smallest I've ever seen and the screen on my smart phone was almost bigger, the water bottles in the table were... More

We spent three nights at the hotel - returning for a second time because we had such a lovely time last year. The MD and staff provide a warm welcome and spend time chatting and providing information about the... More

Thank you to you and all your staff, for making our stay so comfortable and memorable at your lovely hotel. The evening meal in Zak's was amazing, as were the breakfasts. The Hotel is really well situated for Waterford and there are some other interesting places to visit nearby.

My wife and I had an amazing meal here after visiting some of Waterford's highlight sights (the new Museum of Treasures and the Waterford Crystal gallery are well worth visiting). The chef is exceptionally talented and turns locally sourced, organic ingredients (we had amazing beef and fish main courses after very creative and tasty starters) into memorable meals. If you...
