“More a business than family holiday spot”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 December 2011

They need to redo their website. It seemed to indicate room + B&B was €55 while room-only was €35. As it was the best location for my business trip I decided to book room-only and find someplace for breakfast. I was then offered breakfast for €10 per day extra! Getting a double room to myself I thought this was great value. And it was! The buffet breakfast was first class as was the bar food in the evenings. The free Wifi signal was poor in my room but I had cables and hooked up to the broadband outlet in the room. Staff were first class: I left my car keys in the bar and wasn't back in my room 2 minutes before they phoned me having found them before I knew I'd misplaced them. At night, be careful trying to locate the turn in.... there are so many car showrooms that the Hotel Sign can't compete and gets lost in the glare! No road noise. Too far to walk into the city. I didn't explore bus options etc. I asked for a non-smoking room on the internet and got one.

Room Tip: Ask for a room overlooking the car park. Mine overlooked the delivery area. I was disturbed only onc...

“Nice comfy good value hotel.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 December 2011

Nice bar area serving non fussy but good quality food. Hotel staff very friendly.
Rooms, well my room anyway, didnt check them all :-), was of a good size and free wifi signal was good.
A bit too far if you are looking to walk into Waterford but just a few minutes in a car.
Will definitely be staying there again.

“Great value”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 November 2011

Rooms and hotel overall were in pristine condition. Facilities were good. Staff were 100% on the ball. The location is bit out from city centre but not ridiculously so. At 35 euro for a room this represented exceptional value. Any negatives? well one of the lads was annoyed that they wouldn't put a round of drinks on the room. Mind you this was 4 am and they were still serving so we're clutching at straws really. Would happily stay there again

“Good value and very friendly staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 November 2011

We spent a long weekend here, touring around. Big airy room, clean and well up together.
Breakfast good, bar food excellent, receptionist extremely helpful. Bit out of town, so you need a car, plenty of parking. All in all good value.

“Very Good value with friendly helpful staff.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 November 2011

We were at a conference in the hotel and stayed there for 2 nights.

Good points are that the breakfast was good, free newspaper in the morning, the room was clean and large with lots of plugs to charge phones, computer and technology. Free wifi is good too. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Forgot my razor and they had spares for twits like me who forget stuff.

The decor is a bit minimalist and first impressions were no so good. The hotel grew on us over the week end.

The real disadvantage was the location 4k out of town. taxi cost €10 into the city and €12 from the rank out to the hotel. This makes the accommodation a bit dear. Also the hotel is surrounded by car dealers and is just not good to have a pleasant walk.

The distance from the city is the big downside for this utilitarian hotel. Its not dear and we thought we got good value for our money.
