Pros:

This hotel has been recently refurbished and the designer included everything you need in a really aesthetically beautiful way. The accent colour is my favourite colour and I loved it! I took a few ideas away with me for my own home. There is a restaurant for convenient breakfasts and dinners. The hotel is a little way out of central Waterford but it is not a problem as there is free parking and it is great for country drives.
