The staff were excellent - very polite, welcoming, and helpful. The dinner recommendation (Kyteler's Inn) was great. Kilkenny is a terrific city.

Really enjoyed the room and convenience of the location, as I was coming from the train station on foot and it was very close without being too close, and the room was very comfy and well heated. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and check in was a breeze.

I didn't like the hotel. It is under refurbishment however, still charging 248 euro for one night. I also had to check in after check in time as the room was not ready. Really disappointing stay and I wouldn't come back.

I recently stayed at The Hoban, and it was a delightful experience. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring that all my needs were met with a smile. My room comfortable and well-appointed, but it also provided a serene retreat after a day of exploring. The location was perfect, easily accessible and close to local attractions.

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!
The swimming pool was great. Children loved it, lots of space and not too crowded.
The location of hotel is excellent, right in city centre.
The breakfast was delicious (except for rashers as usual in a hotel). The breakfast dining room was very spacious with relaxed atmosphere.
The staff were very friendly and genuinely helpful.
Rooms were a good size.
Angela and John are incredibly friendly, greeting everyone with a smile and preparing a fantastic full Irish breakfast. The house is very clean and is a nice easy walk into town centre. They provided recommendations for where to eat and drink, and some of the sights to see. It was a great stay!
Friendly staff. Room was spotless. Good location, less than 10 mins drive from city centre.
As a coeliac, I was impressed with the gluten free options for breakfast. Dedicated g.f. area with toaster, 2 types of cereal, nice bread for toasting and good options at hot counter.
Lovely secluded area, nice and quiet, only like 10mins from city centre. Pods were spacious and clean. Bed was really comfy. Breakfast basket in the morning was delicious, really nice touch. Some nice donkeys to keep us company!
Location was convenient. It is across the bridge from the Miracle Mile so less than 5 min walk. The room (suite) was very large with a large bed, bathroom, sofa, desk, wardrobe. The hotel has free parking which was appreciated.
Hotel had great facilities, staff were excellent and rooms were very comfortable. It was is a good location (although 10 minute taxi ride to city centre) and would definitely stay again. Pool facilities were lovely.
Convenient location. On the river across from Kilkenny castle.
Our room did not look like the one pictured. But, it appeared that a portion of the hotel had been remodeled. Staff was great. Breakfast was good.
Beds were very comfy. Staff were friendly however they seemed to be under pressure... especially at breakfast which was very slow. Hotel is clean and really well located for the city centre.
The location!! The best! It’s right in the city center, 2 mins walk to the castle and restaurants. There’s a spacious free parking at the back of the hotel. Breakfast is excellent.
Beautiful hotel right in town. Close walking distance to everything. Beautiful gardens. Staff were wonderful. Delicious breakfast in the morning. Highly recommend
Staff were very welcoming and the service was excellent. I chose the hotel for its location and car parking facilities as I wanted to be in the City Centre.
Beautiful, rambling hotel. Lots of different bars, rooms and outside spaces. Good car park to the rear and walking distance to city centre. Will beback.
