Nice older family run hotel located about 20 minutes walk from the centre of Kilkenny. Friendly and efficient staff and large clean rooms but no fridge. Lift for luggage but not people but no problem as staff operate it for you. The bar is not crowded and great for dinner/ drinks. Dining room is nice and breakfast (additional $) included a good selection of hot and cold options. Location is adjacent to a large hospital but was surprisingly quiet with plenty of parking.
