Hidden Gem
Hidden gem of a hotel retaining a lot of its character but adding quality furnishings. A touch of quality like home from home. Room was small but the decor was warm and comfortable and the bed one of the best I’ve ever slept in during my nights away (100 nights per years!) Staff friendly and helpful and food and dining typically ‘country Ireland’ but quality and a lovely roaring stove fire to keep you warm.

This is a quiet little jewel of a hotel. We absolutely loved our stay here! The food was great. We had the chicken ham pot pie and it was delicious! After dinner we had a nice stroll across the bridge to the Discovery park. The staff was kind and delightful. Service was exceptionally good. The room was beautiful and comfortable with nice big towels. The bed was extremely comfortable and we had a very restful night. Breakfast in the morning was delicious and cooked to order. Never had lemon pancakes before and they were light and refreshing. Again, the service at breakfast was great. This stay was beyond our expectations. I highly recommend it.

Beautiful hotel, but room was so tiny it was very difficult to get to the other side of the bed. They have too much large furniture in such a tiny room.

Terrible room
The room was the size of a matchbox, I complained top the check in manager and he stated that it was the original part of the hotel, so that was why it was so small - a disgrace to pay €206 for this, which was nothing like the pictures on your website - as total con

An overnight stop for me, and the room as an office to write up the day's work. Comfortable and very pleasant hotel, though my room was right over the ballroom below and the very good music didn't finish until late on a Wednesday night - if there's a show on and it bothers you, ask for a room not directly above! Nicely appointed property, the stairway smells clean, polished and warm. Would stay again.

Beautifully renovated historic manor hotel
We stayed for a night after visiting Kilkenny Castle, and En-route to Cashel and Blarney. The hotel was excellent - friendly staff, comfortable room and delicious food. We took the combo with breakfast and evening meal - an incredible deal with an unrestricted choice from the menu. It also had air conditioning in the height of the July heatwave.. The town itself was charming.

The Avalon is a mixture of old and new build, the rooms are comfortable , the menu in bar and restaurant is reasonably priced and the food is good. Onsite parking is safe and secure. The outside seating area is pleasant with comfortable rattan furniture. The staff in the Avalon were excellent and could not of been more helpful I would not hesitate to stay here again.
