Cliff House Hotel Cliff-edge located 39 bedroom 5 Star boutique hotel with a MICHELIN Restaurant and destination spa. Patrick.

Situated above charming Ardmore village with all rooms overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. From here, discover Waterford, Ireland's famous Copper Coast. CONTEMPORARY IRISH LUXURY
Cliff House Hotel is a five-star, privately owned luxury hotel located close to Cork and Waterford. The building seems to cling to a cliff on the south side of Ardmore Bay where there has long been a fishing village, and a Christian settlement that pre-dates St. From sun-drenched terraces and private balconies it is possible to see Ardmore’s sands, lobster pots and dolphins that play out on the water. All our luxury rooms and suites are sea facing while many are interconnected to provide family-friendly configurations. From this dramatic coastal location in Ireland’s gourmet heartland you can enjoy some of the country’s best restaurants - including our own Michelin-starred House Restaurant. We also have a bar with an outdoor terrace for summer dining. Our intimate destination spa, The Well, is a key attraction. We are close to a number of Ireland’s championship golf courses, and encourage outdoor adventures to support your wellness goals, your Cliff House experience always enriched by accurate, old world service that’s warm and true to the Irish spirit. Our design is Irish modern: white walls, cupa stone columns, sedum moss-covered roofs and limestone terracing. We have Ireland’s largest private collection of campaign furniture and specially commissioned artisanal works, from handcrafted glass pieces by Glasshammer to individual resin designs by Sasha Sykes.

Celebrating World Food Day 🍄
A little autumn magic, gathered from nature.

On World Food Day, we're reminded just how fortunate we are to be surrounded by such an abundance of natural ingredients. From our woodlands and hedgerows to the sea on our doorstep, nature provides so much of the inspiration behind our menus at Cliff House Hotel.

A beautiful reminder of the richness of the autumn season and the importance of appreciating and respecting the natural world that sustains us.

Tempting as it is to stay right here, it is always worth exploring a little further…
Just a scenic drive from Cliff House Hotel, the Kilmacthomas Viaduct is one of the most striking landmarks along the Waterford Greenway.
Built in the 19th century as part of the old railway line, today its magnificent stone arches carry walkers and cyclists high above the River Mahon, with beautiful views towards the Comeragh Mountains.
