Two Waterford tourism businesses were recognised at the CIE Tours Awards of Excellence.
CIÉ Tours, the largest carrier of US visitors to Ireland every year, held its annual awards of excellence celebrating Irish hoteliers and tourist experience operators who
have been singled out by the 30,000 visitors who came to Ireland with CIÉ Tours in 2024.
Now in their 33rd year, and an annual highlight within the tourism industry, each year, the prestigious accolades are awarded based on post-stay feedback received by CIÉ Tours from their customers.
Dooley’s Hotel was awarded gold for ‘best 3-star hotel’ while The Marine Bar Dungarvan received a gold award for ‘best tour feature’.

Congratulating the attendees, Aidan Murphy said, “Our honorees are exemplary contributors to our 95.4% guest satisfaction rate, and they all deserve recognition for the excellent roles they play in welcoming visitors to Ireland and ensuring they have a memorable experience”.
