Ok,not the cleanest Hotel I've stayed in, in public areas,staff friendly, good breakfast and house keeping very friendly and rooms very well cleaned and fresh Lovely area to stay in ,took a trip into wexford town,lots of shopping.

M mac

Stayed before the morning ferry. Food was good, room clean but did have a strange smell, which never went away. Bed was comfortable and it's pretty much on top of the ferry port, that's the hotel, not the bed. Staff were not as friendly as we have encountered in many different hotels but not unpleasant. Would use again.

Functional 

Second time we’ve eaten here and the food is plentiful, tasty and well presented.... The waiting staff were friendly and attentive whilst if you sit in the right area there is a cracking view of the harbour.

Didn’t stay but great bar meals :)

With not much of a choice of restaurants in Rosslare harbour we ended up in hotel Rosslare for a bite to eat. My wife had goulash and rice and I had steak with all the trimmings the steak was juicy and cooked to perfection and my wife's goulash was very tasty better then we have had in Austria and my son and his girlfriend went for the burgers which they demolished. The service was fast and the waitress was very friendly and professional we will go back for more in the future.   

Feeling hungry

Pros: the staff was very kind, accommodating and very nice. The hotel is close to the port and has nice views. Good water pressure in the showers and the food at the restaurant was better than expected based on how the actual hotel was.
 
Cons: The website needs more actual photos. The few that were posted are obviously photo shopped.  We felt like we were completely misled on this hotel.  We were traveling as a family from the US for a 2 week vacation. We took the train from Dublin  to stay the night as we were taking the ferry over to Wales the following day. We had a lot of luggage, strollers, etc. When we got off the train, we saw the hotel up on the cliff but were unsure how to get there. We saw about getting a taxi and the soonest we could get one was 30 minutes away. From the car park we noticed the stairs to get up to the hotel. Which doesn’t seem bad but it’s 77 steps up the side of this hill that the hotel is on and it was 3 trips up and down with kids and luggage. The first door to the lobby opens automatically but the second one you pull by hand (stupid).  We checked into the hotel, the hotel lobby was obviously in need of some updates and after climbing Mt. Rosslare you find out the hotel has no elevator and that first floor rooms are on the second floor.  In the room it smelled like smoke and mildew. Everything smelled like cigarette smoke, the towels, the bedding, the air, etc. It was just for a night and we were exhausted so we decided to stick it out. I was stunned at how rundown the hotel is because if I knew the condition I wouldn't have booked it.  I went back online to see the website and clearly pictures were photo shopped or taken some place else. I noticed a few reviews online that were pretty spot on.  The reviews that were deemed negative by management were responded to very angrily and defensively. People should be able to read all reviews and the hotel can use these as a chance to improve. Is it not clear to hotel management that the hotel needs an upgrade/refresh?
 
We woke up the next day and noticed a water stain from a leak in the ceiling. Not sure if we just didn't notice it or it occurred overnight. We checked out but stayed around in the restaurant until it was time for us to catch the ferry.
We did have a decent meal and the staff was lovely although they also smelled like cigarette smoke.  The tables by the windows with the view had a horrible smell of mildew/mold. So we moved to a different table. All of the seat cushions in the restaurant were ripped and very beat up.
 
My 6 year old daughter needed to use the bathroom and I wasn’t going to take her into the men’s room so I used the handicap bathroom instead. Upon opening the door, I saw there was blood on the floor. I informed the staff, gathered up the family and headed to the ferry early. Overall, we would not stay there again and suggest the owners do a major overhaul.  It’s a beautiful and convenient location and a shame they don’t invest in it.

Not worth staying here.

Stayed here for one night this July with my family and I find it has improved a lot since my last visit two years ago. The rooms were spotless and comfortable and I had a great view of the harbour. It was a pleasure to stay here. The staff were friendly and accommodating, especially the lovely waitress who served us for dinner, she was very patient with my fussy children. Also the waiter who showed us to our breakfast table couldn’t do enough. We were a bit disappointed that they had stopped doing the full Irish breakfast, instead they do a continental breakfast but the waiter arranged for some of us to have some boiled eggs that weren’t supposed to be available and I believe he was told off for that which is a shame. Other than that I have no complaints at all. We will be back in future for sure. 

Lovely hotel

Just ok for the one night but will not return.   The location was fantastic, right near the port so easy access for ferry but desperately sad and in need of refurb in some areas. No decafe tea or coffee available.  No loft to 2nd floor a big disadvantage. 

Disappointed Tired hotel

We ate one meal here and really enjoyed the steak sandwich. The steak was perfectly cooked and thick and tasty. Similarly chicken was well cooked. There is a good ocean view. Service was a little slow during a busy time but the waitress was friendly and polite.

Good hotel food

I went to Hotel Rosslare last weekend and was sat waiting for 15 mins before our order was taken.  A waitress walked past us and never even looked at us even when we tried to call her. She went on to serve another family who arrived after us. The food wasn’t great- soup was freezing, the Caesar salad wasn’t great either, no parmesan only mozzarella. I ordered chicken wings too, which didn’t arrive until 25 mins later. I attempted to call the waitress (Sarah)twice and she made eye contact with us, and walked past us again and didn’t acknowledge us. Only when she turned around she had to answer us.. she was so rude it felt like a chore for her to investigate where the food was. I watched as someone approached the waitress and they were told to wait for one second that they were busy!! I think there is a lot of improvement needed here, and an attitude adjustment for staff.  The only positive thing I have to say is how friendly and apologetic the other lady Mags was. She’s a lady.

Worst service ever 😡

On arrival we were checked in by a lovely girl who was very welcoming. It was a cold day and there was a lovely real fire in the lobby which was a nice touch. A few hours later the same girl took our food order and was extremely helpful. Her name was Sarah and to us it looked like this girl was running the hotel on her own. She was always smiling and on the go all the time. Nothing was ever a problem to this young lady. The food was very tasty we had fish ,chips and mushy peas which were the best peas  we had ever tasted. Again Sarah served the food to us. The hotel overlooks the harbour and has great views of the ferries .The hotel could do with a refurbishment badly .The bedroom we got did not have balcony or sea view . The bathroom was small but spotless . The bedroom could do with refurbishment . The seats in the bar were dreadful . What it lacked in decor , the staff .....Sarah.... made up for with her enthusiasm   The Barman was nice . If you are looking for a hotel near the ferry then this hotel is in a great location for that. Breakfast starts at 6a.m. which is ideal if you are catching the early ferry.  Breakfast is self service  consisting of juice, cereal, toast , danish pastry’s  tea or coffee .  I think at a later time you can order the full Irish breakfast etc.  We would stay again but hopefully it will have got a refurbishment . Thank you Sarah for your  wonderful kindness you are this hotels best asset.   Anne.
