    We really enjoyed our stay. The staff was friendly and very helpful. It is a beautiful setting along the river & having the castle right across the river... made it a precious. The breakfast was more than we could have imagined, so many different items to chose from. While we were there we were able to walk the streets of Kilkenny and see all of the sights as well as visit the shops. Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Nov 17, 2012

    The hotel had two weddings going on during our stay. The guests were rather noisy very late into the night. The doors in the hotel banged shut all night long. The staff seemed less friendly than other hotels in Ireland maybe because they were so busy. The location of the hotel was good. Very convenient. You could walk to everything. But no AC in the […] rooms so it got a little stuffy. Read more

    We spent three nights at this hotel and overall it was just OK, but there were some major issues. First, we had an issue with our security lock not working. The manager initially suggested that two women should feel secure in the location, even with no lock. After some convincing, they switched the room. Its an old location, which I understand. Its […] been renovated fairly nicely, but there is sloppy work all around. For example, improperly drilled holes in a tile in the bathroom for a fixture, with the old cut marks and holes visible. For the price of this hotel, I would expect more craftsmanship. The biggest problem though is parking. Its atrocious. We had a mid size car and just pulling into the gates (wall on both sides), requires being very careful and going slow. Not easy when pulling off the main busy street in Kilkenny with everyone on your rear. Then you take a ticket to raise the gate. Despite the cost of the hotel, you pay to park there! The next morning, I tried to leave and forgot my ticket and the exit gate wouldn't let me out, so my mother went upstairs to get the ticket. Meanwhile I am stuck in this tiny cramped lot and can't move out of the way of those behind me. Then the ticket wouldn't open the exit gate. I had to go back in and get the ticket validated before it would work to exit. NONE of this was explained on check in. This whole process meant just getting out on our first morning was an extra 15 minutes, also delaying those behind us. Overall service was spotty, we had a nice porter, but a couple of the desk personnel seemed upset to be bothered. The average service, renovation issues and parking nightmare means I will never go back. Read more

    Our stay in this hotel was wonderful. The rooms were clean, the food in the restaurant was very good, and the staff were helpful and friendly. The lovely shopping area of Kilkenny is within a two minute walking distance which was highly advantageous as my mother has mobility problems. Kilkenny is a lovely medieval city and the boutiques make for a wonderful […] shopping experience. A walk along the the river is a must-see, and the promenade is kept clean. Read more
