We chose this property for its location but quickly became disappointed when it took 30 minutes for someone to answer the door to check us in. The WiFi did not work (unable to use Netflix) and there was barely any cell reception. The beds in the room we stayed in need upgrading (coil springs). Difficult to sleep due to quality of beds. Pillows/beds and towels need upgrading. Other issues as well need addressing like broken toilet seat. The host was friendly but upgrades and maintenance are require at least for the room we stayed in. The breakfast in the morning was appreciated.

Breakfast was tasty and serviced with quick hospitality. We Stayed in Room #7 which has no window, but a skylight that wouldn’t close. It felt like being trapped in a box at times. This detracted from the comfort level of this B&B.

Poor experience at arrival. I rang the bells multiple times, no reply. I called, no answer. Just as we decided to leave and look for somewhere else to stay, the owner/manager came out. She said the bells were not ringing inside the property. Bathroom ridiculously small. Have never seen anything like it.

We had bad luck with what we think was their worst room (#6). The bathroom was smaller than any cruise ship bathroom we've had. We worried about fire safety as the only window was a roof skylight. Host was friendly enough but not great. Overpriced for what we got. Breakfast was timely and good.

I wish we would have had more time

Everything was great. I did not realize this was a B and B when I originally booked this stay so to say it was perfect is an understatement. We arrived late after delays and 35 hours of travel and were welcomed with great hospitality.. The homemade breakfast was delicious and the bed was so comfortable. It is a short drive to all the things in Kilkenny. I would highly recommend.

Much better options

David was polite and helpful at check in. The WiFi was very poor, it was the worst by far of all our 12 stays. A cheap Amazon mesh system is a simple solution.
The room was very cold and when we mentioned this to David after returning from dinner, he said the heat would come on at 10.00pm. We waited in the cold but the heat never came on. We retired under the thinnest of duvets we had experienced and had to put on additional clothes during the night to keep warm.
When the heat came on in the morning, the main radiator in the room was only marginally warmer than body temperature after two hours.
We cannot recommend this place.

First off, the staff was very friendly and helpful. Really made us feel welcome in the space.

The breakfast was great and we had lots of options on the menu to choose from.

The room itself was small but the beds were comfortable and the natural light was nice.

The bathroom was a bit of a problem — The shower was very small and there was a restriction on how long a shower we could take because it was solar-powered hot water. The water never really got hot, just warm, unfortunately. As well, the toilet in the room flushed strangely and we struggled to figure out how to get it to work at all. That was a challenge.

The free WiFi did not work the entire first evening/night we arrived on any of our devices (including other guests we spoke to over breakfast) and was consistently spotty and dropping in and out the whole time we were there. Very slow when connected and often fell off. Not a good place if you won't have data or need WiFi for work.

The b&b is a bit far away from the city which made walkability a bit of a challenge if you're not interested in a 30 minute walk just to get there. Would consider driving from accommodation or picking a more centralized hotel next time.

The property is very tired problems with hot water availability and heat in the rooms. Compared to many other b&b in Ireland the breakfast were very basic with no fruit , yogurt or cereals. Numerous notes of what you should not do were posted and did not create a welcoming atmosphere. Pictures are deceiving as is the “join us for a drink in our lounge”. Good location basic accommodation.

The room was very smal,the listed ensuite bed seemed very small,very old and had large wooden corners on the two bottom ends which being a small room you had difficulty not hurting yourselves on.The ensuite was extremely old and needs a complete new suite.Thought the price of one nights stay is far too expensive for what is on offer.Would not return.

David is a wonderful host. He is very friendly and had lots of helpful information about Kilkenny. Breakfast was delicious. I would definitely recommend staying at Launard House. I would offer a few heads up. The house is in need of some touch-up. The water heater is limited, so showers need to be short. We had problems getting the toilet to flush. They do have washcloths, which was very unusual, and there were plenty of towels in the bathroom. Plus, there was a top sheet on the bed, which was also unusual and very much appreciated.

We had a pretty good night stay here. Host was friendly, breakfast was included and delicious good and the location was easy to find and safe. Kilkenny is a great little town to explore. Lots of fun. But the property could use some attention. Walls are super thin - could hear conversation in next room. Only window was a skylight, shower was super tiny and did not drain and the room itself - lighting, towels, carpeting - could use an update.

Adequate for a good nights rest and brekkie

Bathroom clean. Linen clean. Furnished to character and lovely. In General just tired and in need of freshen up in room - Carpet stained and dirty looking in room, kids complained no way to shut out the light as skylight. Other than that meets the bill.

Breakfast was good, enough
Property definitely needs pickup outside
Our room was very small and confining with sloped walls that we kept bumping into.
Big walk into town.
