The Granville Hotel are proud to receive a number of rewards through the years. We have received various hotel and food awards which have helped us to show our appreciation to our hard working staff and celebrate these achievements with them.
This award celebrates the highest level of excellence in travel and is awarded to those who receive a high volume of above-and-beyond reviews from the Tripadvisor community. Out of 8 million listings, fewer than 1% of hotels receive this award.
The Granville Hotel place at No. 14 on this list for the best hotels in Ireland and are in the company of some of the most prestigious properties in the country.
In the 2022 Waterford Chamber of Commerce BusinessAward we were delighted to have been chosen as the winners in the 'Customer Service Excellence' category.
On Tuesday 31st January we attanded the Virgin Media Business Gold Medal Awards in the Galmont Hotel Galway. We were honoured to receive the Silver Award in the Ireland's City Hotel category.
We have officially been certified as a Great Place to Work. To be certified for this accreditation, all members of staff were sent a survey which they completed anonymously. It had questions about working life in the Granville Hotel and we were delighted to reach the scores necessary to be one of the first hotels in Waterford to be deemed a great place to work.
In Ocotober 2022 we attended the Irish Hotel Awards where we won Boutique Hotel of the Year for Munster. Our Bar Manager Ann Power not only won Bar Manager of the Year for Munster but also won the Overall Bar Manager of the Year Award. Truly deserved after nearly 40 years of service in the Granville Hotel. Our Housekeeping Manager Volha Chukava was nominated for Housekeeping Manager of the Year and the hotel was nominated for Best 4-Star Hotel of the Year.

Following the surprise inspection we were also awarded with the 'Great Irish Breakfast'and 'Excellence in Service' awards in 2022 and 2023

Reviewed January 2023:
"I have been a guest at the Granville for two days now. Half-way through my stay, I cannot resist the temptation to review this establishment, with which I am so delighted.
A real asset for the Granville, last but certainly not least, is its staff: full credit to Erin from the reception team, whose kind and friendly nature I well and truly appreciated, and well-done everyone at the restaurant, looking after me with care and attention. I find the Granville to be GREAT value for money and would recommend it to anyone visiting the sunny south-east of the Emerald Isle!"

Click here to leave a review!"It has that indefinable ambience of the well-run privately owned hotel, the sense of being cosseted in an old fashioned way unlike the slick informality of modern concept establishments. The mature Irish staff with young local staff working alongside - they're what Irish hospitality used to be about... chatty but not intrusive, charming and full of local recommendations for us to do. We loved it.
Whether for business of pleasure this is a lovely plave to stay and it makes a very comfortable and friendly base for exploring thet area."
