£17.50 p.p for breakfast!? Soulless and Faceless.

A slightly curious, albeit faceless corporate events hotel. The faceless touchscreen check-in sets the tone, albeit with a member of staff hovering in your peripheral vision while you do so. The room was clean and warm, frustratingly the extract fan to the bathroom emitted a low level hum at all times (much like leaving your toothbrush on charge). Having requested that breakfast for one be added at booking, it subsequently wasn't and I was then charged an eye watering £17.50 (?!) retrospectively (it's £13 on Hotels.com). Avoid

Our time at the Waterford was short, so we were not able to see or use all the facilities offered, and give them full review. We will be staying here again. Our only criticism is, the cocktails were very weak & not worth the money, we would recommend at trip to the near by supermarket.
