Waterford Castle Hotel & Golf Resort in Waterford

This was the most fantastic, amazing experience ever. My brother got married here and it was the most incredible wedding I have ever been to. My jaw dropped when we pulled up. The staff was so nice and friendly. The most amazing staff member was Cal (Calogero Di Fina Lupe), bar manager. He made the night even more special. I found myself gravitating to toward he bar not only for more drinks but to simply talk and hangout with him. He went out of his way to make sure we all had a great time. At one point I ordered a drink and was going to come back to get it after the Irish dancers, and he came and found me amongst all the guests to give it to me. He also makes a fantastic espresso martini!! Best I have had all trip. I searched until I could find him on social media- as he quickly became more like a friend than a bar manager. Missing him and this fantastic experience more than ever. 🩵

We spent 4 nights at the golf lodges and played the course twice. We enjoyed playing the course which was in great shape and pretty challenging. Staff were lovely and very welcoming. The clubhouse is a nice place for early dinner after golf. Overall a lovely place to visit.

We were fortunate enough to have our wedding at Waterford Castle. To say our expectations were surpassed would be a massive understatement! From our first viewing, it was clear that Waterford Castle is a place where attention to detail and excellent customer service are paramount. Gillian simply is peerless in her role. Her recommendation of suppliers brought us in contact with the most professional, talented vendors. Gillian was always available to us for any questions we had. She definitely guided us to make sure that we were on the right track! On the day, she was so kind and attentive. She liaised with all our vendors which made our day as relaxing as could be. When we arrived to Waterford Castle for our wedding, ourselves and our guests were so well looked after. Each member of staff was friendly, engaging and professional. Our guests raved about the food, the activities and the unique surroundings. Antonio in the dining room and Cal behind the bar could not have done enough for us. Antonio even brought my husband a second steak at dinner! The castle rooms and lodges are spacious and very well maintained. We had our day two in the golf club which is a lovely space. Stephen could not have done more for us, even bringing a speaker outside for when our music finished up. We could not be more delighted that we booked our wedding at Waterford Castle and are so grateful to each member of staff who made our day so special!

I am delighted with the castle. great atmosphere, beautiful history of the castle. It's nice to find the atmosphere of the last century. pleasant atmosphere. The staff is well trained and polite.

My stay at the castle was my favorite part of the entire trip. The ambience was absolutely magical and the staff was immaculate! The bar manager, Cal, was an absolute angel. He made the most delicious drinks, was incredibly attentive, and truly made our stay!

The castle, the grounds and the peacefulness of the whole experience are fantastic and worth a stay. The river walk around the perimeter of the island is fantastic, so be sure to bring appropriate footwear and burn off a few calories so you can indulge. The evening meal in the Munster Room is worth far more than it costs and really was the highlight for us. The food is very rich and certainly not something you would eat every night, but a must if you are treating yourself. Don’t be tempted to skip dessert - the Granny Smith one is ridiculous!! The staff are so polite and friendly, whether the locals or the new local Italians! All go above and beyond to make you feel really welcome. I really would recommend this as an experience that has to be tried!! A few small negatives….. The breakfast was a little poor, perhaps the low numbers staying made it difficult to suit. A false fire alarm the evening we stayed should have been checked before there was another one early in the morning disturbing what was otherwise a deep sleep in the beautiful bed. The room (Hurst) was very warm and the radiator couldn’t be turned off. The bathroom had some strange noise coming from the pipework when the toilet flushed and only one roll of toilet paper was a bit strange. And I do think we should have been told that the golf club was being renovated and no proper lunch option was available, as the bar was packed for Mothers Day.

The waterford castle is a fantastic choice for our recent visit 😍 Atmosphere and food was extremely satisfying and tasty. 😇 The staffs were incredibly friendly and helpful 🥰The location was also perfect, with easy access Amazing location for wedding and photoshoot. Highly recommended 👌

Everything is great. But the hotel is on an island. It takes a little time on the ferry to cross 200 meters 😀 The rooms are good, the kitchen is wonderful - you can cook whatever your heart desires. Warm, spacious. Quiet residential area.

My partner and I planned our destination wedding at Waterford Castle! The team at Waterford was so wonderful to work with, and so accommodating. Gillian is amazing at her job and made our whole day seamless. Everything from the beauty of the Venue to the food was perfect on our day! Everyone at Waterford went above and beyond for us and we truly cannot thank them enough. We would absolutely recommend to everyone!!

A little gem just outside the city.
