Hotel was beautiful and comfortable. Staff were knowledgeable about the area and very helpful. Was very convenient for walking around town. The castle was right up the street and most attractions in town within a 5-15 minute walk. Parking very close and the cost was 12 euro for every 24 hours. The classic Irish bar was awesome with great live music. The welcome drinks were a nice touch. We checked out of the hotel and they were very nice about holding our bags until we were ready to leave town. Loved our stay here.

Beautiful hotel in Kilkenny. The rooms were absolutely gorgeous and the hotel was so beautiful. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The only things that were a little difficult was that there were elevators to get luggage up to the upper floors, but then there was this walkway down the hallway that went down a few stairs, had a platform, and then up a few more stairs. So that’s something to keep in mind if you have physical limitations. This also is no fault of their own, but there is no air conditioning. They did provide fans but we came during a heatwave and it made the night practically unbearable. Again, not their fault AT ALL but if you’re looking for comfort, probably keep in mind the temperature. But overall, the hotel was a dream.

Hotel is OK but I was expecting something better. Staff was nice and kind, room and hotel quite clean; it was hot and rooms are not air conditioned, but the worst was windows are not allowed to open but a small space. Experience was not good at all, we could not sleep well because of hot. In adittion breakfast is fair but limited. For me is. 3.5/5

Loved that this hotel used to be a bank. Room was furnished beautifully, the breakfast that was included was very good. The bar service staff were outstanding. So friendly and accommodating.

The only downside was that the room was quite warm and difficult to cool down. But fans are provided which were helpful

Breakfast was disappointing for a guest with Celiac. The plates and bowls were located next to the bread and toast often times leaving crumbs on \"clean\" plates stacked next to it. I suggest adding some plates and bowls on the allergy safe table you have. Though the safely packaged gluten free bread, cereal, and dedicated toaster were very appreciated, possibly add some hot breakfast options besides scrambled eggs. Possibly an omelet option. For parking, you are required to park in the public garage near the hotel which is very close. The attendant at the garage was kind enough to charge me for a week as opposed to 3 days because it was much cheaper oddly. The staff should point that out. Although the free welcome drink is greatly appreciated, not everyone can drink prosecco due to migraines. Possibly add a second inexpensive option that isn't prosecco based. Overall, these issues would not stop a return visit. Location was perfect and the room was beautiful.

The only problem I have with the hotel is you do have to walk a half a block or two to park and the garage is very narrow so I suggest you get a small car, they have two parking garages they recommend and the closer one cost more and they do not validate the parking. The room does not have air condition and the shower was terrible. It was hard to get the faucets working.. the rooms looked really pretty by the pictures I saw on Travelocity and they are pretty, but I think the picture can be a little deceiving. Overall, the room was nice, but it’s not something I would brag about.

Rooms were clean but very dated. Amenities were minimal but sufficient for 1 night.

My room had an interconnecting door to another room. This has never been a problem for me before, but the sound proofing in my room was so poor, that it sounded like the 3 girls in the next room who were chatting at a perfectly normal volume at 2am, were sitting on my bed.

The cooked breakfast was edible but not great quality.

The best thing about the hotel was the staff. All members of staff we encountered at reception, in the restaurant and in the bar were incredibly polite and friendly. Location of the hotel is also great - right in the middle of the town.

Overall, considering the price we paid, the hotel was a disappointment and we will not be staying here on our next trip.

The location and staff were fine, but the bed completely ruined my stay. The mattress was unbelievably hard—so hard that it honestly felt like sleeping on the floor. I understand some people like a firm bed, but this had almost no cushioning at all. I woke up sore and uncomfortable, and it made it difficult to get a good night’s sleep. A hotel bed should be comfortable, and unfortunately this one was anything but.

It’s a lovely hotel, very comfortable, it reminded me of one of the old Irish railway hotels. ( My father worked for them so I stayed in a lot) Great breakfast, beautifully presented.
The salmon and Scrambled eggs were excellent and the poached eggs too. Our thanks to the chef.
Super friendly staff, Arran? was great. We were given a cocktail in the lovely bar, which was a nice treat. There was nice music in the bar,
Only teeny wobble was our room looked as if the cleaner hadn’t finished, or had been called away.

The only issue we could raise was that having taken the lift to the second floor there were more steps to reach our room. Fine for us but potentially an issue for some. Also they need bigger towels in the rooms!

Simply GREAT!

Very warm welcoming, great help for finding our way around. The bed was quite comfortable. Breakfast was delicious. Hotel placement is really central, yet very quiet room. Convenient covered parking park right across the street.

Great location. Parking not a problem as it’s just across the road from a reasonable pay facility.
The breakfast was absolutely delightful.

The hotel is in the heart of the city. The staff was kind and suggested many different restaurants and sites to visit. There is no AC in the room. However, it was very comfortable to sleep. The room is spacious and clean. The breakfast was included. However, it was a little underwhelming. The coffee machine was broken. The bar is gorgeous and a great place to have a drink and a bite to wat at the end of the day.

The hotel was great in all respects only drawback no car park as it was expensive to park nearby. Check in rather late at 4pm but can be worked around as so much to do in the city

The hotel itself was great and offered an amazing made-to-order breakfast in the morning. The location is great as well, right near the Medieval Mile and close to Kilkenny Castle. My only complaint was the rooms did not have air conditioning, so it was uncomfortable sleeping.

Good location and breakfast, but otherwise avg

Pros- excellent location, great breakfast choices and the cook will make it fresh instead of the buffet

Cons- noise: since there’s no AC, we opened the windows. On the first floor it was incredibly noisy from the street- street sweepers, garbage trucks, from sun up.
Bed- I can see why others said the beds were uncomfortable. For the first two hours we couldn’t fall asleep ( not just because of the singing and music from the street), but we realized the mattress was only one sided and it was upside down. After flipping and remaking the bed, it was very comfortable. How does housekeeping not know this?
General had an older feel- carpet stains and a black stain in the center of the shower curtain.
