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

“Pleasant night away in May”

Reviewed May 20, 2013 NEW

My boyfriend and I stayed here for one night in May. We received a warm welcome from reception and were shown to our stunning room. Our room was huge with a beautiful view and gorgeous bathroom complete with a huge luxurious bathtub. The only downfall was that it was a bit of a pilgrimage to get from our room to... More

“Fantastic Stay”

Reviewed May 19, 2013 NEW

We stayed here in March and had a wonderful time. The weather was awful so we didn't get to enjoy the cliff walk or some of the other amenities around Ardmore but there is more than enough to keep you entertained in the hotel. We stayed in the Terrace Suite, lots of room, great shower and great views of the... More

“Dont Expect Good Service!”

Reviewed May 8, 2013

Waited 30mins for a seat in the bar, even though I counted 8 free tables (16+ seats) eventually got fed up and just sat down! Ordered a drink, totally wrong order! ! Staff appeared not to know what they were doing, nervous and afraid to speak with customers!very unsatisfactory for a 5*Hotel, views gorgeous though!

Dear d-host Thanks for your review - would love a bit more detail about when exactly this happened - please email me directly......abartels@thecliffhousehotel.com and I would be happy to discuss it with you. Yours sincerely Adriaan Bartels General Manager More

Reviewed May 6, 2013

As my husband and I celebrate our birthdays within 2 weeks of one another, we decided this year to spend a night at Cliff House Hotel as a “joint” birthday gift to each other (split the bill between the two of us).

Lovely Hotel with stunning views of the ocean. Pure luxury rooms, especially the en-suites. Extremely friendly staff who can't do enough to make your stay special. Bit pricey but you get what you pay for and can't wait to go to Ireland again and stay at this Hotel.
