This Waterford hotel has been named one of the most beautiful clifftop hotels in the world

A step above the rest.  The Cliff House Hotel in Ardmore, Co. Waterford has been included in a list of the most beautiful clifftop hotels in the world by Condé Nast Traveler. The luxury travel magazine described the five-star property as 'one of Ireland's most beautiful and scenic hotels, clinging to a cliff overlooking Ardmore Bay.' Krisanne Fordham writes: "The ultra-modern building’s angular slate-and-glass design is a dramatic contrast to its craggy, untamed surroundings, which makes for some Instagram-worthy photographs. "Not surprisingly, each of its 39 cozy, sun-drenched rooms come with stunning bay views, but book a terrace suite for extra bragging rights." Set over six levels on the cliff edge, The Cliff House Hotel is home to a Michelin star restaurant, seafront bar and luxury spa perched on the water's edge. If you'd like to treat yourself to a staycation this summer, the hotel is running a special Gourmet Package in July and August. The offer includes an overnight stay for two in a Sea View Room and a meal in the hotel's award-winning Michelin-starred restaurant, The House Restaurant. Prices start at €425.
