Beautiful castle with some updated features. Still gives you the historic feel. Loved the golf course.

Stayed 1 night in a “deluxe” room, the experience started well with the unusual arrival via a short ferry and the drive through the private island, but sadly the luxury experience ended as soon as we had parked up and headed for check-in. Little did we know that the hotel was largely booked out by a huge wedding party, to even get to reception required us to gatecrash through their “private” BBQ held on the lawn in front of hotel. We were looking forward to a quiet stay, but as we went out for evening stroll around the grounds, it became clear that every nook and cranny of the public areas both inside and out had been overtaken by the pre-wedding party. A quiet drink in the bar would have been wonderful given the setting, but the bar was standing room only, so we were left to retreat to our room. The noise from disrespectful guests treating the hotel like they were having their own house party continued until 2am. The room would best be described as “faded luxury”, but worst of all the room was immediately above the service entrance - so we had a wonderful view of a laundry store, staff taking their breaks beneath the window, and in the morning deliveries from around 8am. There was no part of this room that I would describe as “deluxe”. The breakfast buffet was ok, but certainly not worth a walk up price of €29. On check out we mentioned our disappointment by the stay, which was received with a shrug and that “we have weddings usually 3 times a week”.

Amazing property. Wonderful vintage room. Impeccably clean. Food was superb. Overall a must stay.

The castle was gorgeous.

Outstanding experience well done!

I loved the wake around the island - it was beautiful!

An experience to stay in a castle- but I think I prefer more modern accommodation

This Castle was a highlight of our trip around Ireland! The grounds are lovely, the castle is absolutely incredible. Like staying in a fairytale. The restaurant staff are fantastic and the food was top notch! Highly recommend the Waterford Castle.

This was a splurge for my birthday and it was so exciting to take the ferry over-it conveniently runs every 15 minutes- park and walk up to a beautiful castle. After we checked in we explored the property and then got a drink in the luxurious bar. The furniture was comfortable and cute. We took a bath in the claw foot tub and enjoyed the large and soft bath towels and robes. The toilet was difficult to flush and you had to pull at the top not the chain. The bed was the most comfortable bed ive ever slept in. Breakfast was phenomenal with everything so tasty and fresh in a gorgeous sunny atrium. Could do a better job cleaning-lots of cobwebs and dust. Some people complain about the decor but it is a restored castle and I don't think it's easy to simple replace the wallpaper. Definitely would recommend!

Amazing, all the way around!
