Pembroke Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel, very helpful & friendly staff"

Serene 3-bedroom City Home in charming Kilkenny perfect for relaxing stays

8/10 Good

"Excellent location. Its a cosy fit for 4."

The Club House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Room in the new block very clean and cosy. Staff very helpful. Car park at the rear of the hotel but we were directed to it easily over the phone. Breakfast was plentiful and hot. I would have liked bath sheets instead of bath towels, the extra bit of size matters. There is no lift, lots of stairs, but staff will carry bags to your room. Hotel very well placed for getting around this lovely town. A real find."

"Clean modern hotel friendly staff"

Langtons Hotel Kilkenny
