Had to walk thru restaurant to check in which was upstairs and no elevator. Dark walls, filthy carpet in halls. Maze to get to room. Faucets at sink didnt work, shower door wouldnt close, hairdryer didnt work. Room was clean and bed comfortable though. Terrible directions to back of hotel parking. Would not recommend.

WARNING: Should be rated 2 stars at best. Filthy and outdated. Our stay at the Club House Hotel in Kilkenny was extremely disappointing. We struggled to find parking due to poor guidance from the staff. The hotel had a bad smell throughout, and the entire place felt outdated. No one helped with our luggage, and the room was filthy, with a terrible stench and some kind of biological matter in the shower. The next morning, the shower didn’t work at all. When we mentioned this to the front desk, we received no compensation or proper response. For €265, this place is a scam. Our friends stayed nearby for less and had a much better experience. Avoid at all costs.

The oldest hotel that is really overpriced for what you get. Barely 3 star amenities. Rooms sparse and lacking much more than a motel 6. Still charming breakfast area and staff was alright.

The staff, bar and restaurant were fine. Hallways narrow, rugs shabby. Bathroom needs a total renovation. You heard everyone in the halls and nearby rooms, generally noisy. Not recommended…

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.
