Kilford Arms Hotel

Kilford Arms Hotel

8/10 Good

"This was an overall nice hotel. The inside is a little maze like on a long winding path that involved going up stairs then down stairs and such but the room itself was great. Very clean and comfortable. I will say, we didn’t know before hand but apparently Kilkenny is a party town on weekends with lots of large groups going from pub to pub and it was loud outside until 3 or 4 am. Not something the hotel has any control over, obviously, but something to keep in mind if you’ll be staying here over a weekend."

Kilkenny House Boutique Hotel

Kilkenny House Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was very cute and quaint. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was delicious! We had dinner in the bar and it was great, as well. There was a bus stop just across the street, but we decided to walk to town, and it was a very easy walk. We would definitely stay here again."

The Hub

8.6/10 (61 reviews)

There are two distinct sides to Kilkenny that combine to make it one of the best cities to visit in the Republic of Ireland. Recently voted Top Tourism Town by Failte Ireland, the medieval capital of Ireland boasts a rich historical heritage immediately apparent in the very architecture of the Marble City, while it is also a thriving cosmopolitan centre for the arts, for music and design, and host of the popular Cat Laughs Festival every May.
