Schöne Zentrale Lage.
Pros:

Zentrale Lage in der Stadt mit Parkplatz.

Cons:

Lüftung der Küche ist bei uns am Fenster gewesen und war relativ laut. Dadurch hat es auch stark nach Essen gerochen.

Cons:

Dated decor, could do with a fresh paint and some care about furnishings etc. Eg even the “do not disturb” sign on my room was bent and tatty - not a good look!

I also had to wait ages for the car park barrier to be opened, and even had to ring a few times. That was very frustrating.

Pros:

Bed was comfortable
Central location so everything was within walking distance Breakfast was lovely both mornings
Staff were very friendly and helpful.
We requested iron and ironing board and some more milk sachets on separate occasions and they were both dropped up promptly which was much appreciated

Cons:

There was some external noise which woke us up but that's exoected in a city and the room was a bit warm for my partner but otherwise everything else was great

Ottima soluzione per visitare Kilkenny
Pros:

Hotel con ristorante e bar (dove viene servita un’ottima colazione), situato nel cuore di Kilkenny. A cinque minuti a piedi dal castello, è vicinissimo (300 metri) anche alla fermata del bus in Ormonde Road dove partono/arrivano i bus da/per Dublino e Cork. Moltissimi i locali nei dintorni dove bere o mangiare.
La camera è ampia e confortevole, il bagno molto grande.

Cons:

Niente
