Hotel in centro, consigliato.
Pros:

La posizione dell’hotel era ottima, il personale molto gentile e cordiale e la colazione davvero molto buona.

La stanza era piuttosto grande e pulita, così come il bagno, anch’esso spazioso e comodo.

Cons:

La stanza che ci è capitata era un po’ buia, con una finestra piccola affacciata su una parte interna. Tuttavia, essendoci fermati solo una notte, per noi non è stato un grande problema.
Dato il soggiorno molto breve non abbiamo chiesto di cambiare camera, ma probabilmente, se fossimo rimasti più a lungo, lo avremmo fatto.

Outstanding kilkenny hotel
Pros:

Beautiful hotel in the middle of Kilkenny with parking. Staff are amazing, rooms tastefully decorated with very comfortable bed. Breakfast excellent, dined one night of our stay and one of the best meals I have ever had. Couldn't fault anything.

Cons:

Nothing

Great location and staff were brilliant
Pros:

Hotel was great and had everything we needed! Breakfast was nice and good selection and all the staff were great and accommodating! Only callout I would have is our room could have done with another big central light as there wasn't much day light coming in, but the room was big and spacious which was also great! Hotel was very quiet as well!

Cons:

Just another bigger light in the room for visibility when getting ready!

La vue de la chambre (201) sur les murs du bâtiment d'en face en travaux... et un bruit sourd toute la nuit (aérateur ?).

Pros:

Great location. The included breakfast was amazing.

Cons:

The room is a bit warm, but you can open the window and it cools down. Also, like others have mentioned the drainage is a bit wonky with the shower.
