Excellent Hotel centrally located in Waterford. Outdoor Parking is available across the street, we had no issues finding a spot. Our Room was clean and comfortable, bathroom fixtures were a little dated but served us well. Great Pub for dinning with friendly service and good food. Great place to stay in the area.

We had a nice comfortable room at the Granville, overlooking a courtyard. However it was a bit of a trek to get to and as far as we could see there was only one extremely small elevator to service the whole place. Two people with large bags take up the entire space; once settled we used the stairs. And there are multiple doors to go through along with little sets of stairs to go up and down. Anyone with mobility issues must request an easily accessible room. Check in and out was very easy. Staff were very nice, making recommendations we asked for. We didn't have breakfast. Dinner at the restaurant was lovely and we appreciated the live music in the bar later on. Location was perfect since we could easily walk to all the main sites we wanted to explore.

Comfortable room, with kettle for tea & instant coffee - would be nice to have an espresso machine in all the rooms not just some. Nice little welcome card & cookies upon arrival! You can request an iron for your clothes. We had a quayside view which is great but currently a building site as they build the new bridge. Fortunately we were there over a weekend so the noise was minimal. Decent breakfast, some buffet style and some dishes made to order like the eggs & avocado blaa. Although they did try to charge us for a breakfast on a day we didn’t have it.

Staying in Waterford

Really a nice place to stay.! However if you have luggage such as we had (traveling for 10 days) , there is no parking right at the hotel. You have to park 2 blocks down the street.So bringing luggage into the hotel is cumbersome. Staff, restaurant was excellent.

While on our road trip through Ireland, we were lucky enough to stay at one of Ireland’s oldest and most iconic hotels, the Granville Hotel in Waterford. What an absolute delight! From the moment we arrived, we were swept up by the charm, history, and grandeur of this beautiful property. Everything about our stay was seamless, but what truly stood out was the exceptional staff. Their warm welcome and genuine attentiveness made us feel incredibly valued. We had dinner at the Bianconi Restaurant, and it was an absolute highlight of our trip. The wait staff were personable, engaging, and wonderfully interactive – they turned a great meal into a truly memorable dining experience. Our room was clean, comfortable, and cosy, providing the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring. Parking was easy and convenient, which made our stay even more stress-free. If you’re visiting Waterford, the Granville Hotel offers a perfect blend of historic charm and modern comfort – we couldn’t recommend it more highly!
