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.

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.

Host was friendly and very accommodating. The room was serviced on our second day. Great stay. We would definitely stay again. More
