SEE PHOTOS DO not stay here it is not 4 star.
The minute you walk in you get a Horrible smell of Mould and damp and old furniture its was so bad
The bathroom was full of mould it was shocking
The fixtures were filthy and broken
The floors and wood are just manky
How they can charge 230 a night for this is robbery. It was so bad I would not even use the shower. The walls are paper thin
And you hear Everything from other rooms. The cleaners were outside our door at 8.30am chatting banging wardrobes and hoovering so loud
Save yourself a disappointing trip avoid here a wasted night away for new parents so disappointing

Beautiful building, great bar and restaurant. Friendly staff. The room was missed during cleaning, but the staff were really great about it, free drinks and treats, although there was no need for it. They really made our stay memorable.

Craic Larger than Medieval Life
Spirited Kilkenny was Ireland’s capital in the Middle Ages and although many monuments remain from back then, it’s now best known for the 'craic'. Kilkenny cream ale flows in pubs forming part of its legendary nightlife and tours of Smithwick’s showcase Ireland’s oldest operating brewery, on grounds containing the St Francis Abbey ruins.
Kilkenny has the most medieval churches in Ireland. Dating to the 13th-century are the Black Abbey and St Canice’s Cathedral, next to the Round Tower - the only remains of a 9th-century monastery founded by the saint.
Medieval streets, inns and wall remnants still stand, but the most impressive attraction is Kilkenny Castle, in large gardens by the River Nore. The 3-turreted fortress was a former home of the once powerful Butler family.
The Parade leads from here past high street shops to The Tholsel – the porticoed town hall. The Elizabethan merchants’ residence Rothe House is in a similar style. Wandering the colourful streets you can’t fail to notice buildings named after cats, a reference to the residents’ dogged determination. Local hurling team The Cats play at Nowlan Park, and the city hosts the annual Cat Laughs comedy festival, amongst others.
Booking.com’s Kilkenny accommodation includes hotels with spas and pools, and city centre guest houses near the train station.
The imposing Norman castle complex which is 900+ years old...
The imposing Norman castle complex which is 900+ years old is largely intact and well worth a visit even if you think you are not a 'history person'. Guided tour is worthwhile. Also visit the artists workshops in the stables complex opposite as well as adjacent park and gardens.
After the castle go to the related St. Canice's Cathedral. The streets between still have a historic character with old buildings and shop fronts and plenty of places to shop, eat and drink with a predominance of independent traders. Kilkenny is compact and easy to walk round but people with mobility difficulties should check as some parts are steep or served by steps. Kilkenny is close to the main motorway network and would make a good touring base.

We visited for a boys weekend away, 9 years after our last visit and it did not disappoint. So many great independent bars to work your way through, all in close proximity, most with an authentic Iriah feel to them. As usual, the Irish welcome is excellent with live music on tap too. Great place for a boozy weekend.

I loved this mediaeval city .bursting with history and street art , culture, and so many unique and quirky shops. I also love learning about history and loved how many different places I could see and learn about here. The highlights were the castle tour and the shennagins walking tour .

An old medieval town that is not overly touristed.
An old medieval town that is not overly touristed. Lots of lively pubs with friendly local people. I enjoy late night walks and this city seemed completely safe to enjoy at all hours. If you have a car the Rock of Cashel is about an hour away and well worth the trip.
The location is excellent as is not 500 meters far from city centre and most important attractions in Kilkenny as Kilkenny Castle, Medieval Museum, Pubs and Restaurants. Additional, The Owner Angela is the best and lovely to cross some tales with her, she is a truly writer with amazing histories to tell, you can get her books in the hotel and she lovely can sign it for you. She told us that her first book "not forgotten" could be transferred to a movie. Good luck Angela!
You cannot go wrong staying at the Kilkenny Hibernian Hotel! The location is right in the heart of downtown Kilkenny. It’s a very quaint hotel that has been updated while lovingly maintained for quaintness. The staff cannot do enough for you. Kristina at the front desk greeted us with so much kindness! Our room was large, clean and very comfortable!
The rooms were clean and spacious. The hotel is in a great location right in the heart of Kilkenny. We had booked 2 rooms, one twin room and one double, and when we realized we got 2 double rooms instead, they were very accommodating and easily switched one of our rooms to a twin room. Breakfast was buffet style, very good.
Breakfast was delicious. The location was very close to the castle and a short walk to the Kilkenny city centre. Gorgeous grounds and gardens. I stayed in the Botanical room and it was so pretty and comfortable with a huge bathroom and nice toiletries. Overall, a great stay.
The hotel is in the city centre. The gardens are fab and lead through an arts centre to the castle. It is a really beautiful hotel, filled with so much history! And the sunken bath is lovely in room 53! It was the perfect girlie getaway location!
Restful place to be thanks to convenient parking, delicious dinner and good service in the pub. The desk staff was gracious and informative. Sweet breakfast and lunch cafe. Place is an easy 20 minute walk from Kilkenny castle and city centre.
Good location not too far from Kilkenny city centre. Excellent food for dinner in the bar and for breakfast. Nice big room with comfortable beds. Very helpful staff at reception and everywhere else in the house.
I liked the location, the onsite parking and the look and feel of the hotel.
The Hotel is located conveniently to many pubs.
