Waterford Castle Hotel & Golf Resort

Beautiful property.

Unbelievable experience!!! What a dream to hop on the ferry to your private island and the amazing Waterford Castle! We were greeted by the amazing Sally at reception who could tell just how excited we were to be here and was so welcoming, as was all the staff. The Suite (Executive) was incredible with all of the period features you would expect in a Castle. I woke up to spotting Snowy - the albino wallaby - out of our window! Dinner and breakfast were both incredible, as was the service. We couldn't fault anything. And yes, Guinness tastes better in a Castle

Amazing Castle stay and stunning restoration of original architecture. The food was wonderful as well. Highly recommend. Walk the trail, have a pint by the fire, look for the albino wallaby on the island. Grab a pint at the Fitzgerald bar and enjoy the beauty.

My husband and I eloped here with the help of the people of Eloping in Ireland. Our stay here was absolutely amazing and our ceremony was more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. We stayed with a few friends and family and got to take in the beauty of both the grounds and the castle. Their meals were exquisite down to the last details and the staff was warm and very helpful. Such a wonderful experience and I am grateful for the role the staff had to play in our special day.

We eloped here with a small group of family and it was one of the most memorable experiences I've ever had. The staff made us feel welcomed and the overall ambiance was really incredible. Nothing but good things to say. Keep an eye out for the albino wallaby!

Getting a ferry to your hotel is a sure way to start the trip well. Beautiful Castle and grounds, lovey and attentive staff. Our rooms were superb, exactly what you would want when staying at a castle hotel and I have to say the most beautiful toilet and sink! I was delighted with the gluten free afternoon tea, bread was dry but no where seems to be able to get gluten free bread right at afternoon teas, cocktails delicious and the dinner was beautifully presented and tasted amazing. In fairness the only downside to our trip was we were expecting an a la carte breakfast menu and there was a buffet on in the morning with a delay on food, we had to get up numerous times from our table to see if some of the food options, particularly eggs had been brought out. When we brought this to the attention of the reception staff on check out they apologised and said there was a wedding taking place and the buffet was set up to accommodate them but that we could have ordered a la carte if we wished, unfortunately this was not the case as there were no menus on display and when we were being seated after giving our room number we were told it was a buffet breakfast, which we hate, so that was disappointing. The smoothie shots were a nice touch though :) So minus a wedding party ruining your breakfast Waterford Castle is a beautiful spot and should absolutely be added to your 'must stay' list.
