Official Description (provided by the hotel):: The Cliff House Hotel.A Hotel For Seaside Luxury Regarded as one of the finest small luxury five-star hotels in Ireland, The 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 the only Michelin-starred restaurant in Ireland outside Dublin. 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. From sun-drenched terraces and private balconies it is possible to see Ardmore’s golden 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. Our intimate destination spa, The Well, is a key attraction. ... more less

“Beautiful scenic view”

Reviewed 13 June 2013 NEW

My partner and I stayed in the Cliff House Hotel to celebrate a special birthday. What really attracted us to the hotel was the restaurant, as we had heard great things. Our stay itself was an absolute delight. On arrival we received a warm welcome and the reception area was so warm inviting looking. We had one of the suites... More

“Didn't want to leave...can't wait to go back!”

Reviewed 10 June 2013

I had been looking forward to a visit to this hotel for quite some time. I loved every minute of the visit. The hotels location is simply breath taking, the view of Ardmore bay is the stuff of dreams. However a view alone will not leave a lasting impression If the other aspects of the hotel did not come up... More

“Cliff high prices for an average hotel”

Myself and 2 friends stayed at this hotel to celebrate our birthdays in May and paid 150 extra to book a tripple room. Well what a total rip off as we ended up paying to climb over the couch to get into a fold up camp bed! I expected a proper bed for that price and as the room was... More

Dear HelenI824 Thank you for your comments. I have taken them on board. Indeed since your stay we have purchased proper rollaway beds that are not collapsible. Yours sincerely Adriaan Bartels General Manager More

“Relax, unwind, recharge”

Reviewed 9 June 2013

Beautiful small hotel located on a cliff overlooking Ardmore. Once you arrive you feel you are staying with family. The staff were extremely accommodating, and a warm welcome was offered by all. We stayed on the 6th floor, which offered a panoramic view of Ardmore beach. The room was well appointed and offered a very relaxing environment. We stayed over... More

“Thats the way to do it”

It’s always a pleasure to visit somewhere where you can see and experience a Hotel doing things right and where they add their own touch to things that make it that bit special and that’s exactly the case with this hotel. The staff are a great mix of local and international, as indeed are the guests. The location is wonderful,... More

“Fabulous staff and accommodation”

Reviewed 8 June 2013

We stayed here as a special treat. The staff were wonderful, from the second we arrived to the moment we left, including the reception area, gentlemen who carried our luggage and showed us our rooms, waiting staff etc etc etc. Rooms are fantastic, beautiful ocean views, amazing bathroom and seating area. Two minor slightly negative comments, but only because the... More

“Very close to perfect”

Reviewed 6 June 2013

I spend on average 3 months of the year in hotels when I travel on business. So the decision to stay in a hotel for a few days break to celebrate a wedding anniversary, was not one I took lightly. I opted for the Cliff House mainly due to the Michelin Star restaurant, but also because it was a reasonable... More

Dear ciaranwhyte Thank you very much for your very comprehensive review. I can appreciate where you are coming from regarding the suite - we only have one of those and it is the only room with a pure double bed so is slightly smaller than our other rooms. Please let me know the next time you come to stay and... More

“Best minibreak ever”

We visited the Cliff House Hotel in April for two nights as a special treat for my birthday. The Hotel has the most amazing views as it is set into the cliff face. The weather was quite mixed with rain on the second day but with the sea practically lapping against,the windows, it was lovely to sit in the room... More

“Relaxing stay”

We stayed at the cliff house hotel on 31/5/2013 . We were warmly welcomed by every staff member we encountered which was really lovely. On booking I had mentioned that my husband and I were gluten free and that my husband was dairy intolerant. Dinner was delicious, everything for my husband was cooked and presented to perfection with no fuss... More
