A large group of us have been staying at this hotel for a number of years. This year was our last year. We arrived and went up to the rooms. The damp smell got progressively worse and as we reached our room it was so bad it would turn your stomach. This was bearable as we got used to it.... more

A group of my friends and I decided on a trip to Kilkenny for our annual get together. We decided on the Kilford Arms in Kilkenny and had a great time. We booked in on Friday and after we checked in went to check out our bedrooms and were delighted with the standard and size of our rooms. We then... more

Just back from a fab weekend at the kilford hotel in Kilkenny city. First off we were pleasantly surprised with the location (right in the city centre) We parked our car at the front first but then we were advised by the receptionists to move to the hotels private parking. The atmosphere at the hotel was buzzing when we arrived,... more

Stayed for our 9th year again. Why we go back every year is the location and you don't have to leave the hotel, as you have the bar downstairs and the disco bar upstairs. The bar staff are the rudest staff I have ever come across and the receptionists not much better. The nicest bar man there was foreign. The... more

the staff at the kilford arms were extremely uncouth, rude, without manners and without doubt the most unpleasant i have ever encountered in an irish hotel incidently they were made up entirely of irish staff. the rooms were untidy dusty and seemed to have stale odours eminating from them which can only be attributed to poor standards of hygiene-all in... more

We have just come back from a weekend stay in Kilkenny and while there we stayed in the Kilford Arms. I can´t recommend this hotel enough from the staff to the food to the cleanliness of the rooms. On arrival at the hotel we were greeted by 2 friendly receptionists who checked us in and fully explained the facilities available... more

Completely rowdy, at the weekends there's noise till dawn. But don't try to come in late yourself at weeknights - you don't get a key, and there's no night porter bell. Took me 20 minutes of hammering away at several possible entrances to get back in. Expensive for what it is, too. more

I stayed in this excellent hotel on a recent trip to kilkenny with a group of friends. I found the my stay to be very comfortable and the attitude and politeness of the staff to be of the highest quality. The young lady at reception was very friendly and when showing us to our rooms did so in a attentive... more

I stayed in the Kilford Hotel on the last weekend of October (27-29) and I can happily say it exceeded my expectations. From the moment we arrived we were greeted with friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere. The restaurant was a site to be seen with white oak chairs and dining settings, and the food was delicious. We were given... more
