Clean room, tasty breakfast, NO ELEVATOR
What was good: Our room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Breakfast was hearty and delicious. Great location in the heart of Kilkenny. Not so good: Like many older hotels in Europe, this hotel has no elevator, which we did not know until we climbed the 57 steps from the car park to our room with our heavy bags. No assistance was ever offered to us upon check in. We had no hot water for several hours on the morning of checkout, although after we complained, it was ultimately restored and we were given a small reduction in the room rate. Be sure to ask for a lower floor if you have any orthopedic issues.

The only complaint that I had about the Club House was that I reserved a double bed and got two twins instead. And when I asked for the room I'd reserved I was told they were all full and they might be able to get me into another room the next day. I'm a bigger guy, a twin bed was ok the first night because I was exhausted from jetlag, but the rest of the trip (in a twin bed) made for uncomfortable nights.

A wonderful hotel with a genteel past
All of the staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. They went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable. The food was tasty and the Irish soda bread delicious. One small caveat: there was an issue with the ceiling light in the bathroom and one of the wall sconces over the mirror was not functioning. I reported it twice. I hope it gets repaired. That was the only annoyance.

Very poor quality accommodation. The room was tatty, and small with a low quality bathroom. The accommodation has clearly not been maintained and the sink was chipped. Furniture tatty and carpets worn. Really not up to standard for a hotel and have stayed in far nicer B&Bs. The staff however were pleasant.

Wow, Kilkenny is such a beautiful town. We only stayed one night but wish we had stayed for more. The hotel had amazing food, the staff was lovely, and the maze of hallways sent us back in time. The bar had live music making the unexpected stop in Kilkenny well worth the trip. We will stay here again!
