Having stayed at Kilhey Court many times in the past (a long time ago now) we thought that we knew what to expect. Reception/bar and our room were excellent. Unfortunately the spa has been closed and there are just a few signs of lack of investment (leaking roof on the stained glass atrium, tiles missing from the spa roof). If we had never stayed at the hotel during it’s hey day we may not have noticed these things but it is sad to see, and we hope that these small signs are not the beginning of the decline.

It was clear that cost savings were affecting the food service at breakfast. The standard was okay but would be so much better if the self service had been described better, for instance the breakfast clearly stated Black pudding with a full breakfast, but it wasn’t on display, you had to ask for it. Which is fine if you know to order before assembling your breakfast plate otherwise the black pudding arrives when you have nearly concluded your breakfast. A simple sign next to the plates would improve this!

Lovely space, very scenic and cosy. When we went restaurant seemed like it had just reopened and the staff seemed a bit lost as they were just trying to remember table numbers in their head. Would recommend going once it's fully up and running

The hotel bar was very busy due to the number of people staying at the hotel the weekend. The bar had run out of Brandy, vodka and Guiness. The staff worked very hard and very polite and courteous although the hotel seemed to be short on staff.

I had a very disappointing experience at this hotel, which I had looked forward to. We specifically booked a "Standard Double Bed," but upon arrival, we were given a twin bed. When we raised this issue, we were told it was "Hotels.com" fault due to a miscommunication indicating "twin" rather than "deluxe." Additionally, the breakfast was of very poor quality, and the service was lacking. Even after multiple requests, the coffee we asked for upon our arrival at breakfast was only brought to us after we had finished eating. Overall, I would rate my experience a 2/10. I would not recommend this hotel based on our experience.

Booked at the last minute and excellent value for money. Wished I’d found it earlier as it is so much nicer than Travelodges I’ve stayed in before in this area. Can’t comment on other hotel facilities as l only stayed one night and left early next morning so didn’t eat. I would certainly return.

The hotel and its surroundings were truly picturesque. The rooms were spotless, and while the restaurant offered a limited selection, the overall experience was pleasant. However, one concern was the presence of dead flies on the restaurant’s window sill. Given the warm weather, this issue should have been addressed promptly to maintain cleanliness

e was excellent, everyone we came into contact with was pleasant and extremely helpful. The breakfast was very good, well cooked and served with a smile. The only down side was though the room was beautiful, the heated towel rail was not broken and the flush on the WC was poor, and some of the wallpaper was peeling in some areas. Overall a very pleasant stay. Thank you
