Located in Ardmore, County Waterford, Ireland, The Cliff House is a stunning waterfront hotel as renowned for its excellent hospitality as its clever design.
EXPERIENCE
Arrival at the Cliff House is immediately rewarding. You'll be struck by the architecture of a building that blends in with its rocky surroundings, despite a white exterior. You'll marvel at the staircases that flow down the cliffside like running water, and prepare yourself for the beauty that surely exists inside.
Overlooking the blue serenity of Ardmore Bay, your room is equipped with a free standing shower and modern bathtub, and is decorated in refreshing shades of teal and mint that complement original Irish art commissioned specifically for the hotel. The invigorating palette inspires you to participate in the area's activities, including whale watching and cliff walks.
Every aspect of The Cliff House Hotel, including a rock pool in the spa and the seafood offerings in the dining room, contributes to a seamless integration of the hotel experience and the rugged Irish coastline, making this an ideal stop during your exploration of the Emerald Isle.
