Excellent location—literally in the city centre. The staff was so helpful when we checked out this morning, offering us bag storage before we asked. It might be a bit expensive for a small city like Waterford, but my friend and I both think the price is worth it.

Food was nice staff were nice also, trouble accessing the room and arrived 15 mins before check in told to come back at check in, came back 45 mins later and still wasn't sure if room was ready and then when we did go to the room the key cards didn't work. Quite a few stairs on each floor even with lifts, so be aware of that if you need an easy accessible room. Room was nice, clean and central. Corridor noise was too a minimum. Had dinner there it was lovely.
