A very good hotel in Kilkenny. This was our first time in Kilkenny and we wanted a nice place to stay hotel Kilkenny did not disappoint 👌 although its a bit of a walk into the centre of town for seeing around the sites the weather was good and we enjoyed the walk ☀️ taxis are also plentiful if you require one. We booked a room with breakfast and we paid a charge to have it delivered to the room. The food was very good so all round a good experience 😃

Kilkenny Hotel is a great hotel. Our room was very nice and quite spacious. Breakfast was very good and the breakfast staff were very welcoming and friendly. Not a criticism but just a comment, the gentleman that checked us in was very professional and efficient but not friendly. He’s the only person not to have a welcoming smile and kind words.

Gorgeous hotel. Exceptional service

We got a free upgrade on our room which was a Fantastic start to our stay. They also left a beautiful happy birthday note for my husband and chocolates. Such a thoughtful gesture. The male bar staff were in particular so polite and genuinely helpful. They gave me a large bottle of table water to bring to my room complimentary when I asked if I could buy a bottle of water. Our room was huge with a balcony. We used the jacuzzi, sauna and steam room and tropical shower with the LED lights. So cool! We had a fantastic stay and would not hesitate to recommend this super friendly hotel.

It’s a decent stay for the price. The property is starting to show its age and the health club was out of commission during my stay. Included breakfast is good, not exceptional. It’s a short walk to the city center and all the great restaurants and pubs so not bad overall.
