The location is perfect and the hotel offers free onsite parking (we found out after we arrived and parked elsewhere so moving the car was a bit of a headache but lesson learned - check with the hotel directly before arriving). Staff was very helpful and friendly and we had a great stay.

The restaurant was amazing. We enjoyed cocktails and small plates in the courtyard in the evening and a delicious breakfast the next morning…both were outstanding! Parking was easy. Views of castle from our rooms. Definitely recommend!

Our room was quiet. The beds were comfortable. Everything was clean. It's in a good location. Parking was off-site but is available. Breakfast was very good. It may be dependent on time - my husband had a luke warm shower but mine was hot. I also dont like the spout in the basin as it spurts everwhere but that is being nit picky.

An absolute gem of a hotel nestled in the heart of Kilkenny. Great for walk-ability to historic sights, dining, shopping, and cultural attractions. The staff couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful and the parking made staying in Kilkenny a pleasure. Heartily recommend!

Wonderful but…

The place was wonderful overall, but our room itself smelled very musty. We all got stuffed up noses. I realize with the weather, that’s kind of hard to control, but I was a little surprised nonetheless.

The staff here were all above and beyond amazing and so helpful. The person that checked me in Vanessa , I hope I remembered her name correctly, had some great recommendations and was so welcoming. I walked from the train station which was a little bit of a walk but it was so nice out that I didn’t mind it. Great location.
