Great location. Loved the live music. Breakfast was very good. The bath in the room was the smallest I’ve ever seen though so impossible to have a relaxing soak and the bed was a bit too hard. We both woke up with blocked noses so I think there was dust in the room.

Ok Guys, this is the best place to stay in Kilkenny. You can not get a better location, wonderful staff, great room, the food is lovely. You are only a 5 minutes from the Castle Kilkenny and Smithwicks. The shopping is only 100 steps away. The parking garage is across the street. The front desk lady was the best ever. Honestly, don't even think about it and book this hotel. Beautiful. I travel from South Carolina to Kilkenny Ireland and this was an amazing experience.
