Relaxing Weekend In City Centre

Very relaxing and enjoyable stay. Lobby is spacious and welcoming. Staff are friendly and helped with all our queries. Parking was ideal and well worth the price. The room had everything we could ever have needed and with a well appreciated balcony. Bed was very comfortable. Bathroom was spacious, with a shower to look forward to. Very impressed, and will return next time I say in Kilkenny.

Everything was excellent, food lication, friendly staff, the only disappointment was the bed, I would have preferred a standard double bed rather than two large bed put together, which made the bed uncomfortable and too big. Otherwise the room was a lovely size lovely ensuite was very clean.

Disliked: Amenities
Great location and easy to explore the town on foot. The restaurant had limited dinner options due to a group booking. There was a billing issue at the bar caused by the hotel, but staff were argumentative and offered no reassurance. In the morning, there was no hot water in either of our rooms. Although the manager apologized and promised a refund, nothing was done. Disappointing service overall.

This modern property is right in the heart of town. Just an easy walk to the shop, bars and the castle. The town is full of charm and I only wish was that I spent more time. The car park isn't part of the property but is only across the road with the hotel giving a discounted rate. Breakfast was good with a good selection of both hot and cold
