Reviews for Waterford Castle Hotel & Golf Resort
What superb staff
A beautiful old castle which has been restored to 21st. century standards while respecting the history of the building. The food and the service were excellent but the highlight of the visit was the friendliness, and care of all of the staff.

Outstanding staff, warm welcome, highly recommended
Outstanding staff, warm welcome, lovely fire! Room was very warm but had a fan so great nights sleep. Afternoon tea was a treat but note there is no bar food after 5.30pm, just dinner available. Fabulous grounds for walks and to see deer, a wonderful experience and would highly recommend a visit.

A hidden gem
Fantastic, the whole stay was just perfect from start to finish. We had a beautiful suite (Wedgewood suite) that was just delightful. The staff were wonderful through out the staff, every interaction was polished and professional yet still had a personal feeling. Thanks to Sally on the desk and all the castle team for a magical stay, this place is truly a gem,

"My most recent trip was to Waterford Castle Golf & Country Resort in Ireland. I couldn't possibly say enough about this luxurious castle. The accommodations were outstanding as was the entire hotel staff. Each and every person catered to our every whim. Access to the island was made incredibly easy and enjoyable. The staff was always friendly and anxious to do whatever was required to make our stay perfect.
