we had a pleasant stay at athenaeum house. the staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. we were originally given a ground floor room with no view, but they quickly changed it when we requested a different room. the upgrade to a top floor suite was worth it. the afternoon tea was delightful and the breakfast options were good. we also appreciated the ease of parking and the helpful recommendations from michelle, who served us breakfast. overall, a great location and a positive experience.

Nothing to dislike about our stay 😊

Excellent service, delicious food, quiet location with good views of the city.Rooms had everything you'd need and staff were very pleasant and helpful

The hotel is very beautiful and has an enchanting garden.

Unfortunately it takes about 30 minutes to walk into town.

Excellent staff, friendly and helpful. Freshly made and delicious breakfast. Professional and informative reception. Beautifully decorated country house. Outstanding food. Fantastic value for money.

There was absolutely nothing I liked about my stay.

To be honest we had a terrible stay at this hotel. We were firstly asked what rate we got the rooms for and then put in the rooms away down in the basement with very little light and no heating. 3 of us had two rooms and where freezing. The walls were filthy in my room. Dinner was nice but the dining room is also a bar and there were a group of at least 20 ill mannered really drunk people screaming and trying to sing (appalling drunk screaming voices) The staff did nothing about it. The hotel is on the river but it really is a stop over as there is nothing to do in the hotel but go to the bar. The rooms are fading, dull and dark. Not enough towels or shower products available. I would not recommend anyone to stay here. AWFUL!!!

The location was lovely as were the staff, I found the decor a little dark in my room

I had a great stay at this beautiful boutique hotel. The value for money was excellent and the rooms were clean and comfortable. The location was peaceful and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Marie at reception.

The breakfast selection could have been better with more variety.

Ideal as a quiet, relaxing retreat just 10 mins taxi from a vibrant city centre.

My Husband and I enjoyed a very relaxing weekend at your Hotel.Your Staff were very pleasant and helpful with any thing that we needed .

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location was perfect, tucked away in a quiet area just over the river from the bustling city center. The staff, especially the receptionists, were incredibly friendly and provided excellent service. The room amenities were top-notch, including ironing facilities, air conditioning, and a mini-bar. The restaurant and bar area were lovely, with a cozy atmosphere and delicious food. I couldn't fault the staff or the facilities here.

I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a comfortable and luxurious stay.

staff, resteraunt,location,value for money. It will be our choice of hotel in Waterford from now on.

Slight noise lelels from corridors from loud guests.

The hotel staff was amazing - especially Noel Bolina. They made sure we were completely satisfied. The hotel was spotless and the food and bar atmosphere were amazing. The breakfast set-up was very good and the food was terrific. The hotel was off the beaten path, but was very convieniently located to the city of Waterford. The city lights were visible from the bar and restaraunt area and created a beautifully relaxing atmosphere each evening. This is a GREAT place to stay and was very reasonably priced.

Located conveniently close to the city centre, with easy access to local bars and restaurants, as well as a beautiful view of the city square right across the river. The rooms are comfortable and spacious , with a decently equipped bathroom and adequate breakfast options. Some rooms boast of beautiful river views.

Some minor details like stained bed sheets, curtains fraying at the edges, and dirty grouting in the bathroom may go unnoticed by the management.

the service, the attention to detail... the room

morning lie-in was interrupted by periodical evacuations from those above - not wonderful! Have to presume that this room, at the end of the corridor, was also at the end of the architects drainage scheme, but without sufficient sound insulation... a shame, as otherwise this was a lovely place to stay.

The rooms were very comfortable and well planned. The staff in all departments were extremely helpful and always pleasant and we particularly salute those in the restaurant who WERE THE BEST WE HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED. The food in Zaks Restaurant was of a very high standard and reasonably priced. The car park was spacious, which is not always the case in City hotels.
