We stayed here for 3 nights and really enjoyed our stay at The Waterfront. The hotel itself is clean, modern and has good facilities. There is an inside pool, jacuzzi and gym on the 10th floor as well as rooftop bar and an outside terrace which opens in the summer months. I have to say what makes it special is the staff that work here, they go out of their way to make you feel valued and welcome. Breakfast was great, with a huge choice of hot and cold options available. Special mention to Olena at breakfast who always made a point of saying hello and asking how we were getting on during our stay. It was my 50th birthday celebrations and they allocated us a nicer room and had decorated it before our arrival. The other added bonus is access to the Aqua Luna outside pool over the road. This is also a nice place to relax and chill which charges non Waterfront guests 30 euros per day to use, so it’s a useful perk to staying here. I highly recommend staying here it really is a superb place to stay.

We changed hotels at the last minute and we are so glad we did. The hotel was spotless and the building was highly maintained, the staff were amazing, friendly, and very welcoming. We have stayed in many countries this was the best breakfast by far, fresh coffee, iced coffee or other hot beverages of your choice made fresh just for you no old fashioned coffee pots, the breakfast choice had a choice to suit everybody, "The Waterfront" is "on point"when it comes to expectations of hotels in 2026, if I had to pick a fault like most hotel gyms it is ok but if I was that desperate to run I had miles of coast to run around. We will be back and we know where we will be staying thanks to all the smiling staff that made our stay fabulous Dave and Lisa England x

Overall it’s a lovely hotel, clean, pool area is great, bedding is good quality, breakfast is excellent. My only problem on check in was I was given a room on floor 3 which is the restaurant in the evening and breakfast in the morning. The whole floor stank of food. The room was also opposite the lifts which added noise to the experience. I was moved, but just make sure you don’t accept a room on floor 3. My review would be very different if I’d not been moved
