This was such a fun museum!  Before the guided tour started, I was able to watch a master glass etcher! Was really great to see. Then the tour started and it was very very fun.  I had no idea it would be done by a person in character!  I smiled so much once I realized that.  Had a great time listening to her and what I was seeing.

We did the Bishop's Palace as part of the combined Waterford Museums ticket. It was really worthwhile as it is a beautifully curated 18th century home. It is particularly noteworthy because of its amazing collection of 18th century Waterford glass, which pre-dates The House of Waterford's shift to producing crystal. It has the oldest surviving piece of Waterford glass.

This spicy chicken waffle dish deserves an award! One of the best places I’ve ever eaten.  Staff very polite and helpful. Wine lovely.  Highly recommend stopping in here for food. Outside area is lovely

Great stop. The staff is super friendly as is everyone in Ireland it seems. We enjoyed seeing the history of Waterford. They do a great job displaying various treasures and historical information.  After exploring the top floor, we waited around for the afternoon tour. Miss Pimrose did a great job getting into character and taking us through the house. The 3d story at the end was fun and full of interesting facts.  We also really enjoyed the glass items on sale by a local artist. He wasn’t there that day, but his workshop wear he etched everything was. It was neat to see. He had lots of beautiful work. We all bought at least one of his hand etched ornaments that were on sale for the Christmas season.  This was a highlight of our day. We were all really glad we made the time to stop here and do the tour.

For history lovers, it is well worth the visit.  A unique place to explore and gain an appreciation of local culture and history.

Gallant array of vintage furniture and accessories, with amazing displays and a great array of time periods, all in a beautiful Old Palace.

So surprised by how much this museum contained, a lovely museum with such great and helpful staff. I can't wait to come back.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo

I visited this place and at that time the tour guide was said to be absent, so I took it alone, the lady on the reception, gave me directions to the many upper rooms. I read everything there with most dating from Georgian era. I must say, I was thrilled. Impressed by what I saw. I recommend this place for all those who long to re-unite with history

Visited here on Saturday 6th. Very impressed with the whole experience. The receptionist was extremely helpful and friendly. She recommended the Freedom Ticket which was good value as it covered 4 museums and walking tour for €15. We really enjoyed the re-enactment tour as it was entertaining and informative. Would love to have spent more time on the local history part on top floor. Will definitely be back again and will be spreading the word on Waterford Treasures.

Intresting museum. The 3D video we watched there was so good.
