The location and setting was amazing. So close to all the pubs, restaurants and attractions and straight across the river from the Kilkenny Castle. No need for a car as you could walk everywhere. The staff were super friendly and helpful and the food was great.

Some of the decor looked a bit tired. The whole place looks like it could be repainted and the bathroom could have a refurbish.

"Amazing location...definitely will use again on our next trip up."

8.0

Excellent location right on the bridge, perfect for seeing kilkenny centre for a night out. Comfy beds, large rooms , great breakfast and super friendly staff

Nothing...it was expensive but worth it for the location . Car park is abit tight getting in if you have a big car/jeep, as you have to go thru the arch. If you are a nervous driver it may be an issue. But was no bother to us. Excellent to have parking right there included in price.
