Overnight stay, good meal in bar
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel overall was great. The pub and restaurant were great when we didn't want to run back into town. The staff was friendly and helpful with any questions. It was a lovely choice for an out-of-the-way stay. The bus stop is a short walk from the hotel, and the fare is 2 euros. An Uber into downtown cost us about 13 Euros. We walked into town a few times (about 20-30 min), depending on where you are going. Our room did not have AC (that I saw), so we opened the window at night. Some of the locations downtown were more convenient, but also much more expensive. Would definitely stay here again.

Verified review

6/10 Good

Arriving at the Kilkenny Boutique Hotel, the area, building, and initial impressions are wonderful. The staff member who helped me check in was very friendly and helpful. I did have an issue, however, because I requested a wheelchair accessible room and was not assigned to one. It was resolved on-site, but the staff mentioned that they weren't aware of such a request. I'm not sure if this is the website or hotel at fault, but everyone should be aware to call the hotel directly to confirm before your stay. Messaging through the website did not help. I love the decoration and style of the place, and the bar and café have amazing food. My two other problems are that: 1) There were dead mosquitos in various places in our room (bed, pillows, etc.), and there are no proper outlets to plug your items into. There was an extension cord, but it doesn't work on adapters.
