I recently stayed in the Kilkenny Hibernian for a night with a few girls on a hen night. We were warmly welcome and checked in very quickly. I had a single room, even though the rooms are a bit dated they are very roomy and clean. The bathroom was on the smallish side but again very clean and nicely decorated.... More

The Hotel is located close to all the main shopping streets. I stayed in the Penthouse Suite which was very comfortable and well appointed. Friendly professional staff coupled with very good food made for a most pleasant stay. Multi Storey car park across from the Hotel. I would highly recommend a stay in this hotel.

Great hotel right in the city center and directly across the square from Kilkenny Castle. We stayed here one night, the Thursday before St Patrick's Day 2013. Not only is the castle right across the street, but the hotel is on the "triangle" of streets where all the restaurants and shops are located, so everything you need is in walking... More

Just back from a night in the hotel, we were very well looked after by Sarah on reception, who gave us a fantastic room (didn't find it noisy at all, we closed the shutters and curtains) The food in the restaurant was gorgeous, full of flavour ! All the staff both at night and morning were so polite and helpful,... More

Beautiful and tasteful interior of dark wood, deep green and scarlet decor, roaring fire at entrance- and all for 10 euros a head... More

I availed of a Pigsback offer which represented great value with inclusive 2 course meal and breakfast which was top notch. All of the staff were very friendly, a busy bar makes for a nice pint, we had a Friday stay, staff handed out complimentary finger food in the bar. There was some singing and noise from guests in the... More

This is a proper old fashioned city hotel. The staff were great. Food was good and it was nice to eat in a restaurant/ bar , which was also popular with locals. I agree with comments about beds though, not only was it two singles but overly firm. I slept really badly or might have stayed a second night. Tired... More
