CONTEMPORARY IRISH LUXURY CLOSE TO WATERFORD
Cliff House Hotel is a five-star, privately owned luxury hotel located close to Cork and Waterford. The building seems to defy gravity, clinging to a cliff on the south side of Ardmore Bay where there has long been a fishing village.
Regarded as one of the finest small luxury hotels in Ireland, Cliff House Hotel is a 39-room Irish seaside boutique hotel in the traditional fishing village of Ardmore. Our privately owned hotel also features an intimate Irish destination spa as well as a one Michelin-star restaurant.
