Good location,service is good, many food selection for breakfast. But two things can be changed is the parking sign can be a bit clearer, room is very stuffy need better air circulation or ac. Downstairs can be a bit noisy because of the bar.

Hotel is nice with an accompanying restaurant and bar. The room itself was clean and comfortable but the walls were a bit thin and my neighbors were watching television till after 2 am. Overall a good experience.

Location very convenient: stone’s throw from the train station and right in the town centre near the castle and some really nice bars. Their bar also serves good food and is a decent spot for a late night drink. Be aware however, that the front door shuts at 10 and you can only gain access from the buzzer at the adjacent bar and they are quite strict on guest access. If you are a couple make sure to select for 2 when making the booking. Nevertheless the breakfast is extensive, and the rooms comfortable so thumbs up overall.

The staff was very welcoming and accommodating. The location was excellent as it was a short walking distance to all of the tourist areas and attractions. We appreciated the free on site parking. The breakfast was wonderful and the beer garden was a very nice area in which to relax. The windows in our room were very dirty and little bugs gathered around the lights at night. It was also very noisy as the music from the beer garden drifted up to our windows and the noise from the crowd there woke us up late at night.

The staff really make this place, especially Jean who very was friendly and helpful towards my elderly father. The hotel room was a little dated but very clean, the bar area was pleasant to sit in the evening. Breakfast was in the dining room, there is no natural light which made it feel cave like! It's a buffet breakfast, good enough choice of cereals, fruit etc but the hot food choices were over cooked and cold. This hotel is great if you are visiting a Kilkenny for a short break, it's near the railways station, shopping centre and a short walk into the city centre. I would stay here again but on a room only basis.
