Save 10% at Boutique Hotel in Waterford

Rear terrace of Athenaeum Hotel, facing the River Suir and Waterford City.

SAVE 10% AT BOUTIQUE HOTEL IN WATERFORD: Heading to Waterford in the Southeast of Ireland? Besides a tour of the Waterford Crystal Factory, one of the top reasons for spending time in Waterford is the new Athenaeum House Hotel which sits on a hillside overlooking the marina and the River Suir. The hotel is aptly named - “Athenaeum” is a Greek word meaning “the center of excellence.”
At this 4-star hotel, you can see the city at a glance, yet be removed from the hustle and bustle of traffic along the Quays. Built in 1790 as Rocklands House – home of a wealthy shipbuilder (who scoured the river shoreline for the best location), the hotel incorporates the original Georgian House with new additions including a top class restaurant, Zaks, and outdoor patio.

Relax and enjoy a meal while looking out on the river and the heart of the old city including Reginald’s Tower and The Mall. Guest rooms also have river views along with every modern comfort including compact disc player, refrigerated mini-bar and flat-screen TVs. The Atheneum is owned by Stan & Mailo Power, longtime hoteliers who are always on the scene greeting and assisting guests. To save 10% on your reservation and be assured of a very warm welcome, send an email, mentioning this web site, to Stan at info@athenaeumhousehotel.com. More information: www.athenaeumhousehotel.com.

Stan Power, owner of the Athenaeum, extends a 10% discount for mentioning this web site.
