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.

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.
