    This hotel ranks at the top of our stays throughout Ireland - in large part due to the wonderful, friendly, and helpful staff. The location is just across the river from the castle and in the old town center with shops and pubs and sights well in walking distance. Also, a short walk away is a shopping mall for any mid-trip necessities hidden away in […] a renovated area by the train station. Parking, always important with the necessary rental car in Ireland, is plentiful to the south of the property (just follow the narrow drive down the east side of the hotel if the front area is full.) To access the hotel by car, one must watch carefully for the arched entry through a building fronting John Street just before the river bridge. Read more

    The only real fault I could find with the room was the temperature, it was too hot and no air conditioning. There was however an electric fan which came in very useful. I can only imagine it would have been very uncomfortable in summer.

    I stayed in this hotel for just one night recently. It is a lovely hotel. The decor is a bit dated and the rooms definitely need upgrading but was very clean. My only problem with this hotel was noise. The house keeping staff were knocking on the door at 8am and then continued to make a lot of noise outside the door all morning. Not great if you are […] looking for a bit of a lie in. They made a right good clamber of noise. I'm sure there are other hotels in Kilkenny that have just as nice rooms cheaper. Read more
