I also like its focus on local experiences, from its Greenway Hub for cyclists to the on-site restaurant emphasizing regional cuisine. It seems a solid base for exploring Waterford.”

the kingsize superior room was seriously spacious. i loved the decor, like the colors of the carpet, headboard, and bathroom tiles. local landmark prints gave it a special touch. there was tons of sockets and even a fridge. my son loved the smart tv, that's a fact!
all night i hear doors slam. it sounded more like a jail. the place felt cold, not charming at all.

Excellent Stay Near Concert Venue
spacious room stylish decor convenient features local prints
The hotel was a short drive to the concert venue. My King Size Superior room was spacious and stylish. The decor included local landmark prints that added a unique touch. I found convenient features like ample sockets, an ironing board, lighted mirrors, and a fridge.
The coffee machine required a queue during breakfast, a bit inconvenient.

stylish decor ample sockets friendly staff
My room was spacious and featured stylish decor with prints showing local landmarks. An abundance of sockets, lighted mirrors, and even a fridge were great additions. The smart TV kept my teenage son entertained! I found the staff friendly. They gave prompt service.
The room door had to be pulled tight when leaving, as it did not fully close by itself, unlike most hotels.

lovely hotel stay
smart tv divine shower kind gesture
the room had a smart tv (always useful with kids). the bathroom was lovely and the shower divine. the staff gave my daughter a selection box when checking out, a kind gesture indeed.
the carpet in the bedroom felt almost sticky to walk on. it looked like it had been hoovered but it was very dirty. i think they really need to replace or properly clean the carpets.
