Everyone from the Front of House staff,to the Resturant,Bar and Room Staff were 100% helpful. The Bedrooms /Bathrooms were finished to a very high standard. Our Three couples stayed in Rooms 7-8-9, which were in the rear of the hotel overlooking O’Connell St. No special view,but very very quiet. Breakfast and evening meals were perfectly cooked. An ideal base for touring all over Waterford County and only 35 minutes drive to Kilkenny City. Book this Hotel with confidence,it’s family owned and managed,and it shows. For “walkers”The Waterford Greenway” starts 5 minutes from Dooley Hotel. You also have The Railway Station just 5 minutes away,and across the road from Dooley Hotel is the Waterford Bus Station.

Colleen saved the day with a quiet, affordable, clean and comfy room last minute. After driving around for hours we landed in Waterford with nowhere to stay. While eating dinner Colleen stopped by to check on our meal and upon further conversation was able to resolve our larger problem of where to stay for the night. The best part is all we had to do was stroll out the restaurant and up the lift. The was plenty of metered parking across the street and the included breakfast was delicious. Not only did Colleen help us with a place to stay she took the time to lay out the map of Waterford and pointed us to some points of interest. It was a wonderful welcome. Thank you Coleen for the hospitality.

Loved this hotel so much! Biggest & comfiest beds with the best pillows ever. Warm , friendly & welcoming staff we made our stay, nothing was too much trouble for them. The food was incredible, Gary the chef is a cuisine god, absolutely amazing with plenty of choice, we are all still talking about the food! Very clean central hotel with live music that was perfect for a couples weekend away, we loved the vibe of the place & can't wait to return. Definitely the best hotel we have ever stayed in , we had the best time , thank you to everyone at Dooleys! x

Great experience, friendly and helpful staff on check in, lovely room with a huge bed. Bar was nice with very good food and a decent choice, with specials available. Great location, no parking but available directly opposite at reasonable charges. Only gripe is this tv system some hotel use which gives very little choice and when you work away a lot you want something to watch. Also, the shower took a bit of time to get going and I’m not keen showering in a bath, especially narrow baths but this didn’t detract from a 5 star review from me and I will definitely return soon
