May have spent a lot of money on Public areas,and some on rooms incl Flat screen Tvs,but the woodwork,wardrobes,and dressing tables, need replacing to give the Hotel the complete standard it is trying to achieve, i also think the bathrooms still look drab although the wash bowls have been replaced.

I booked the hotel at the last miinute having been called to Kilkenny for work. The lobby and reception area is neat and tidy and the receptionist was quick to check me in. I was quite disappointed in the room - it was a strange mix of modernity and old-fashionedness. The bed was fine as was the wall-mounted LCD television.... more

The Hotel Kilkenny was the second hotel we looked at and it met all our needs. The hotel is just outside... more

Well, we found it. It was tidy enough alright. Was slightly put off by the wedding parties, but they were no bother at all. Seems to be v.popular for this sort of thing. Anyway, courteous staff, in a rather tidy lobby area. Booked a deluxe room, breakfast in bed (full irish), wasnt bad, certainly had worse. Evening meal; was nice,... more
