The best Hotel out of all my stays in Waterford city

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 10 Jun 2024via mobile
I recently stayed here back in May , iv managed to stay in all the hotels in Waterford, by far this was the winner. There’s a personal touch , the bar was busy for a midweek night, lovely atmosphere, staff throughout were so warm and friendly. Room was so comfortable and the breakfast was so fresh and lovely options, good quality full Irish , good coffee and again great service. It’s my go too now when staying in Waterford. It’s family run hotel and you get that feel ,that’s what I love about it over any of the other hotels .

Popped in for a late afternoon bite to eat and left with a satisfied belly and a smile on our faces. Hailing from a small fishing village, chowder has been my yard stick of quality food for a long time. Dooleys did not disappoint. Plentiful fish (mussles, haddock, salmon and cod) with a light, creamy sauce and two generous slices of home made brown bread. A delight for the tastebuds.
Chowder spy score: 9/10.
Bang 👍

We had a lovely overnight stay here recently . Hotel room was lovely we stayed in number 4 on the first floor . Very large and extremely comfortable double bed and a single in it . Tea making facilities there too I love when you get a decent mug not those tiny hotel cups !!!! My only little issue was in the bathroom the radiator was right next to the toilet and got very hot a larger person might have an issue . Access to a lift if needed I liked the security aspect of needed a room card to access both the stairs and lift . We had a lovely lunch in the bar staff very friendly . We finished our night with a nightcap in the bar with the best Irish and baileys coffees we have ever had . Not sure what your barmaids name was but she was working on the night of 28 th of April and needs a pat on the back !!!! No car park but book through the hotel link and your just across the road directly opposite at a great reduced rate .

Wonderful welcome at the door, receptionist went out of her way to make sure I was settled, comfortable and happy with my room location.
Room itself was very clean and tidy, and the Queen size bed unbelievably comfortable, slept like a baby all six nights.

You can book with inclusive breakfast or not, obviously there is a price difference, but the breakfast food, from Continental to traditional full Irish fry up is exceptional.
Later meals, Main Courses, also very tasty, I tried Fish and chunky chips, and the meal I fell in love with, Slow cooked Beef and Guinness Stew, Unbelievable!

The staff, from reception, to the cleaners to the bar staff and management were all friendly, helpful and generally went out of their way to do anything they could to make my stay as enjoyable as possible.
Highly recommended, and I'm back again for another 6 days in early May, can't wait! 👌🏻

Enjoyable hotel, we stopped here on the way to Dingle. Staff were friendly and accommodating. The location was clean, warm, and comfortable. We did not have a fridge in the room, but the beds were super comfy. We had dinner as there was a wide range on the menu. However, we did not go for the smoked Cooley, which was very different from what we used to. Overall, it was a good stay and would stop again. Thank you to our waitress, who was helpful in what to visit on our way to Dingle and Cork.
