Our email booking confirmation stated that check in was at 3pm It also stated that if you expected to arrive after 3pm to let the house know. We took the opportunity while in Kilkenny to visit good friends that we hadn't seen in 9 years or so, who lived an hour away. At around 3pm while en route from Dublin... more

Carriag Rua was exactly what we were looking for -- a clean not ridiculously-priced B&B with parking and within walking distance (8 minutes) to down. We had a great day in town and a quiet night's sleep and a wonderful breakfast. We were traveling with a 9-year old and two teenagers and felt perfectly welcome. more

Our one night stay at the Carraig Rua was very nice. The location of the B&B could not be beat. It was only about a 10 minute walk to the castle and 5 minute walk to bars and restaurants. The B&B was clean and simple with a homey feel. The breakfast was good and reminded us something that a grandma... more

My stay was average. One person posted about the shower not having a soap dish or shelf. This was true in my case, as well as the shower door being broke and not able to close. I wasn't offered an ironing board when I asked for an iron. Had to improvise. But I found that most B&Bs in Ireland didn't... more

This B&B was everything that we were looking for. Tripadvisor comments helped us choose. We had a car loaded and wanted off road parking. We wanted an easy walk to Kilkenny centre. We wanted en-suite and reasonable price. Killkenny is a lovely historic town, and seems a popular city with lots of accommodation choices, city hotels are priced at the... more

Stayed here 9/17/07. Good size rooms. We had two rooms with a double and twin each. Good size bathroom but no shelf or soapdish in our room. (It looked like it had been snapped off in our room) The other room had a soapdish and shelf. It had private parking. We were requested to reconfirm 4 days before our arrival... more

Stayed with 6 adult children and was very pleased. Oonagh was so wonderful. Full of information on where and where not to go. The Irish breakfast was just wonderful. She had just about anything else you would want to eat for breakfast also. Her scones were the best rated by my family (as we were giving other 'b&b's scores along... more

This B&B was everything that one hopes to find. The hostess, Oonagh could not have been nicer. An easy walk into Kilkenny itself. The room was simple and very clean. The bathroom wonderful. Lots of blankets but also had radiator that we controlled. The Irish breakfast was well done...and the views of the gardens out of the exquisite breakfast room... more
