The one thing I would say is that my knees aren’t great and I found the steps to the huts a little tricky, so not ideal for anyone with mobility issues, but other than that it’s a 10 out of 10!

- Review: This hotel is located in the heart of Kilkenny about 2 blocks from the castle. We did notice a little clutter and congestion in the parking lot (free parking included with stay) but only because of some ongoing renovations during our stay. From the outside the hotel doesn't look overly impressive but we found the inside very impressive and charming. It is clean and quiet and the room we had was large and quite modern. The restaurant onsite is fantastic. No need to look elsewhere to dine. The..., by Anonymous traveller, October 5, 2019, rated 10/10 Excellent
