For a celebratory weekend event I booked 6 of my family members to stay in this hotel, primarily because they wanted to avoid low standards previously encountered in B&Bs. Unfortunately, the Kilford Arms was a big mistake - shoddy decor, mouldy dirt around the shower doors, multiple flies left visible in the bathroom light-shades, peeling wallpaper, not to mention the... more

I stayed here at the weekend with my husband and I am so dissapointed. Our room was old with a stale smell, overlooking the car park. The mattress was in the most awful state leaving us crippled in the morning. There were two women smoking in the corridor, not surprised as there was a big dirty ashtray next to the... more

We were given a family room despite only booking a double. The room was in the new wing and it was large, clean with good decor. We cannot fault the room. There are two large bars and a restaurant within the complex. We spent time in both bars and the staff were excellent, the new super-bar has the best outside... more

I love staying in the Kilford. I have stayed there several times through the years and it is always a wonderful experience. The location is brilliant - so close to everything. The restaurant has the most amazing decor with a great atmosphere and really great food. The staff are always friendly, sweet and very helpful. more

I've stayed in the Kilford Arms twice and both times I have been very impressed. The staff were very nice and friendly. The rooms were lovely. The hotel restaurant is worth eating in. The bars are great and the decor is amazing! The atmosphere was really good and we all had really good nights there. I really like that there... more

I have stayed in the Kilford several times and cannot fault the hotel for its service, location or friendly staff. Location is right in the center of the city and the bar in the hotel is amazing. We stayed for two nights and ate in the hotel both nights, the food was great and would recommend if you were staying... more

Have to say that this about my third or fourth visit to Kilkenny and each time I find the Kilford an ideal hotel to serve my purposes be they work or pleasure, midweek or weekend. Staff yet again were friendly and helpful. Breakfast and especially dinner were of a very high standard. Rooms of a sufficient size and very clean.... more

The hotel was deceivingly big on the inside. It was a bit confusing to find the room and the number of stairs...be prepared to haul your luggage up and down! Once again, the room was a good size and had both double and single beds. It was right in town and we (I was part of a tour) walked right... more
