Accommodations in Waterford

Waterford is the seventh largest city in all of Ireland and the fifth largest city within the Republic of Ireland. It is the largest city in the South-East of the country.

The city is situated at the head of Waterford Harbour. The city motto Urbs Intacta Manet Waterfordia ("Waterford remains the untaken city") was granted by King Henry VII of England in 1497 after Waterford refused to recognise the claims of the pretenders Lambert Simnel and Perkin Warbeck to the English throne. Waterford was subjected to two sieges in 1649 and 1650, during the Cromwellian conquest of Ireland. It withstood the first siege but surrendered during the second siege to Henry Ireton on 6 August 1650.
