워터퍼드 캐슬(Waterford Castle)

My husband I enjoyed our one night stay in the castle. Our room was charming. We enjoyed a walk around the property, before the rain set on. Our dinner was a complete delicious delight. We loved talking to servers. We felt like friends by the time our dinner was over. I did not expect to have a large dinner, because it was four courses, but I could not eat it all(which made my husband happy). Our meat was done to perfection. We then enjoyed some time in the beautiful bar room. The bartender was delightful and very informative. My husband enjoyed a flight of scotch. We learned much and he enjoyed his Scotch. He was even allowed to look at a very rare Scotch, over 1,000 euro a shot!! To end our too short stay, we enjoyed a wonderful breakfast. If we get back to Ireland , I would love to visit Water Castle again. Thank you for the hospitality, Margaret and John Harris Sherrills Ford, NC, USA

I organised a trip for a group of friends and we had the best time! We stayed in the lodges which were in immaculate condition on arrival. The lodges are modern with lots of natural light coming through. We really enjoyed the grounds of the castle and it was very easy to get across to the mainland via the ferry. We ate our dinner and breakfast in the Clubhouse which was delicious and they had lots of options. The reception and admin team were so pleasant and responsive which made organising the trip so much easier! A big thank you to Gillian for all your help and assistance! I would love to stay again.

We would recommend staying here. We felt that the staff couldn’t do more for us they were lovely anything we needed they helped us with. The food was lovely we got bar food and really enjoyed it. Breakfast was lovely on both days lots of choices. We stayed in Ormonde Suite. At something in the future we would love to revisit.

On March 19 2024, three of us decided, on a whim, to go to the Castle for lunch. The dining room was not available so we settled on bar lunch. It was probably one of the worst bar lunches I ever had. It was a very limited menu and it was not good to say the least. Something as basic as salad dressing was not available. ( salad on the side with absolutely NO dressing). Hard to believe. We ordered Chilli prawns that didn’t even pass by a chilli, a very basic, dehydrated burger and a rather grandiose sounding sandwich that materialised as a very, very basic toasted sandwich. All were accompanied by the worst fries I was ever served…. blackening and soggy. We were assured a chef actually prepared it!! We did complain to the very pleasant barman who brought our complaint to the kitchen. I actually felt embarrassed on the day that there were mainly American visitors there who, I’m sure, would have expected a whole lot better. When I got home, I sent my ‘complaint’ by email to the Castle. No reply! I emailed again to say I would be writing a public review… No reply! Communications seem to be an issue. I will give it a score of 1, only because of the very pleasant barman Dylan and a lovely girl named Lauren (I think I’ve got the name correct). Elizabeth Walsh. ( no relation to the proprietor!).

Travelled here with a group of friends for a weekend away and we were all blown away by the place! The kindest and most helpful staff who made our stay completely hassle free. The location is absolutely stunning and facilities are amazing, we can’t wait to go back here! Thank you for the best time.

The Presidential Suite is superb. The cherry on the cake of our trip to Ireland indeed. The dinner was perfect and the breakfast was one of the best we’ve had. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Highly recommended-! Erin Williams, Salt Spring Island, BC Canadá.

A real, beautiful Castle Hotel, very kind, polite, cultured, helpful staff. The front desk did a perfect job. I received the key to the Presidential Suite ahead of time. Huge, beautiful Suite. The Traditional Afternoon Tea and dinner were delicious and perfect, just like the generous breakfast! In the bar you can choose from many jo whiskeys. I got what I expected, an unforgettable memory! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Igazi, szép Kastélyszálló, nagyon kedves, udvarias, kulturált, segítőkész személyzet. A recepció tökéletes munkát végzett. Idő előtt megkaptam a Presidential Suite kulcsát. Hatalmas, szép Lakosztály. A Hagyományos Délutáni Tea és a vacsora ízletes, tökéletes volt, akarcsak a bőséges reggeli! A bárban sok jo whiskey közül választhatunk. Azt kaptam amire számítottam, egy felejthetetlen emléket!

We celebrated an amazing wedding day at Waterford Castle. The venue is a wonderful setting and the staff are extremely professional and very attentive in ensuring that all guests are well looked after. Highly recommended for a memorable Wedding celebration.

We had the best weekend of our lives, from our private dinner with the bridal party the night before, to being so well looked after up in the Presidential Suite the morning of the wedding, nothing was too big an ask for Gillian and the team. The food at the wedding was to die for and people are still gushing about it! Our day 2 was like another wedding the Golf Club was completely transformed! All our guests either stayed in the Castle or in The Lodges and they all adored them. Thank you for an unforgettable weekend!
