The hotel's location is not very convenient as it requires a car to reach other places, but it's still pleasant. The rooms are spacious and spotless with a lovely balcony, but the noise from fans and nearby wedding music can disturb sleep. The service was a mix of accommodating and somewhat unfriendly at times. The dining options were satisfactory but could use more variety and improved quality. Overall, the facilities are well-maintained and offer a nice experience.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and well-maintained, with ample storage space and convenient amenities. However, the dusty carpets were not ideal for someone with asthma.

The dining experience offered tasty options but could use more variety. Overall, a good value for the price compared to other establishments.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the rooms were nice and airy, the proximity to the noisy lift affected my little ones trying to sleep early. The layout of the beds was good, and the room was warm. However, it was smaller than expected compared to previous visits. On the positive side, the service was excellent, with very helpful staff. Yet, there were instances where I had to ask for the menu and the breakfast plate was cleared before I finished eating. Overall, the hotel's location was great for my visit with friendly staff, and the bar food was reasonably priced. The dining experience, however, felt outdated, and there were extra charges that weren't clearly stated initially.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were spacious and had a lovely view, although it was a bit too warm for my liking. The Smart TV with Netflix was a nice touch, but I did notice a broken plug and some exposed wires, which was concerning. The family room had plenty of comfy beds, making it a great choice for a group.

Location

The hotel's location was a bit far from the city center, but it was a good base in Waterford. I enjoyed the large family room and the swimming pool, although the early morning keg delivery was quite disruptive.

Dining

The dining options were somewhat limited, and the timing was not ideal for business travelers who needed to be up and out early. However, the food area of the bar had a variety of options catering to different preferences.

Facilities

The onsite facilities were decent, and I appreciated The Brass Cock pub. However, the noise from the keg delivery early in the morning was a drawback for a peaceful stay.
