10/10 Exceptional

Great location, was able to walk everywhere we needed to go.
Brian, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The stay was okay but my wife and I were sensing a culture of being money driven than customer comfort and well-being driven. The location was very good for tourists.
Malcolm, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice hotel overall

I have stayed here in the past and found it to be a warm and welcoming hotel and great for the city centre and nice to have a cut price parking deal with the multistorey over the road. The room was comfy and wifi decent. Bar food was good albeit a little pricey compared to less tourist cities. But you're spoilt for choice for food.

Location and Pool!

We're very happy with this hotel for our family trip to Kilkenny. We didn't rent a car and were traveling by train/bus and this hotel is perfectly placed in the city to walk to all main attractions. The pool was great with our young kids. The oldest (5Y) really liked the little led they added to our room. I recommend!

Couples get away

Absolutely fantastic hotel but the staff were absolutely fantastic. Their attention to details was spot on. The breakfast staff & Mags I think that was her name, short lady with blonde hair in a suit was so efficient at her job. Overall I would love to stay here again
Mary, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very helpful

This hotel was pretty much booked up when we got there to check in. The room they gave us was not what I had reserved and when we went back down to the front desk they very happily fixed the issue by up grading us to a bigger better room. It was quiet and clean. The beds were very comfortable and the hotel nicely located to make the city very walkable.

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.
