I had stayed here about 10 years ago and had reason to be in the area on business. I was amazed that Pat remembered me. The location is excellent with plenty of parking and the city centre is 5 minutes walk away. The house has a lovely view of the castle. I was really impressed with the cleanliness of the... More

This was the first place we stayed after Dublin, and it suited us perfectly. It is easy to find, with plenty of easy parking (important for left-driving novices!) and we appreciated being able to leave our car their the whole next day while we explored Kilkenny. Our room was spacious and clean, with great water pressure. Our host was very... More

Staying at Fanad house is a pleasure that reminds us why the personal experience of a family run hotel wins out over the generic hotel. Run by its owner Pat, has the feeling of a B&B, but the comfort of hotel. Pat's welcome to Kilkenny is generous, with a dose of dry humour. He makes great effort to greet and... More

We booked Fanad House to stay in during the Cat Laughs festival and were not disappointed. It is 5 minutes from the town centre and on the outskirts of the castle's estate. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Our room was bright, spacious and, most importantly, very clean. There was also ample car parking available right outside. Breakfast is... More

Stayed here for the June bank holiday weekend during the Cat Laughs Festival. The city was a bit crazy with queues for all the best night spots and loud music coming from the pubs, so being only ten minutes walk away, Fanad House was a haven for a good nights sleep when my stamina quit before the noise did. The... More

Great location right across from castle. Five minute walk from anywhere in Kilkenny you want to be. Delicious breakfast with brewed coffee. More of a hotel style b&b then the traditional b&b. Rooms cleaned daily. Owner very nice and friendly. More

We found this place on Trip Advisor and it was a gem of a find. We stayed for 5 nights before and after a wedding and were extremely happy with our stay. It is very well located; just up from the Castle and around a 5 minute walk from the City Centre. It is in a very quiet and setback... More
