    Our room was not suitable as we had adjoining room and we could hear next door conversation so obviously we didn’t speak to loud as we were aware of that

    It was perfect and breakfast was wonderful

    Room at front of hotel would have been better with nicer view.

    Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good, although the same breakfast order came out served quite differently on 3 different days. must have had have 3 different chefs :) Room was clean and good condition although looked out over the back of the hotel (not much of a view) and could hear external fans in the room but didn't disturb me. Great stay overall. No onsite parking but the multi storey car park 2 min walk away was very well maintained and the staff there were very helpful too. Lots to see in the local area.

    Despite loving the room we didn’t realise that the bar across the road has a club that plays thumping music until 3am which meant we could not sleep (even with headphones in!) this completely spoilt our stay.

    We were upgraded to a deluxe room which was beautiful with lovely traditional features such as a fireplace and sash windows. Staff were also friendly. Breakfast was also quick service and lovely.

    We were delighted to be upgraded to a suite thank you and feel ungrateful to comment but that’s how you improve. Unfortunately we found the heat in the suite unbeareable despite many fans and dial tuned down , we hardly slept also the furniture fixtures a fittings were very tired in this suite . But we would love to return and maybe theses issues would be addressed . We would like to say a special thank you for the lovely chocolate & persecco to help us celebrate our big anniversery .

    Breakfast was ok could have been hotter . Excellent location

    I would suggest they need to put hydraulic door closes because the sound of doors slamming during the night and early morning wasn’t optimal. Also just a small upgrade to the rooms to update it a little more wouldn’t bring the rooms in line to the price charged.

    Centrally located. Great breakfast and a good bar.

    We drove and parked as recommended by online information, in the nearby MSCP. However the parking was not subsidised. While I would not expect free parking some reduction of the daily rate would be appreciated

    Quirky decor, rooms were lovely and comfortable

    A very small gripe would be the breakfast options that are complimentary were fine but not exceptional.

    The location was perfect, the staff couldn't have been more professional and helpful. Very attentive. Upon entering it was very welcoming and I thoroughly enjoyed the stay at this hotel.

    The location is right in the city centre a few minutes walk from the Castle + Gardens, Design Centre, historic streets with shops, pubs and restaurants and the River Nore but our room was quiet. The room was comfortable and well decorated. Breakfast was very pleasant with the hot items being prepared freshly for each guest and brought to the table. The historic character of the old building, a former bank, has been preserved especially in the traditional bar which has live music.. Reasonably priced parking close by. Staff are friendly and efficient.

    Extremely comfortable accommodation right in the centre of Kilkenny. Also has a beautiful bar where you can have a good meal and enjoy a nightcap or two!
