Co. Waterford hotel named as one of the best places to stay in Ireland

This is one of the top hotels in Ireland

Travelling in Ireland is something we're trying to do more of this summer. There are so many beautiful locations across the Emerald Isle that we've shamefully never visited, despite most being a few hours away in the car.

Co. Waterford has long been on our list of places to visit, and there's no better time to head than the summer months, especially if the sunshine continues.

One Waterford hotel has been hailed as one of the nicest venues in the entire country, and we're only itching to visit.

The Granville Hotel was named alongside Adare Manor in Limerick and Ballygarry Estate, Co Kerry.

The Granville Hotel is located in Waterford City, which is the birthplace of Thomas Francis Meagher, the man responsible for the Irish National Flag.

The building itself dates back to the 1700s and has played a predominant role in Waterford's rich history.

This traditional hotel oozes old-world charm and elegance combined with modern comfort.

With cosy and luxurious rooms, the finest food, and plenty of spots to read and unwind, the Granville Hotel is an ideal spot if you're hoping to plan a peaceful night away in Ireland.

Still a family-run hotel, this passion and commitment show in the high standards of quality and service.
