I recently stayed in the Kilford Arms with my sister and we had a wonderful time. The hotel staff were extremely helpful and pleasant. The dining room is amazing, with its very high ceiling and great decor. The location was great for shopping and night life. I would thoroughly recommend this hotel and I would definitely stay again.

The Kilford Arms Hotel really is in the heart of historic Kilkenny City so all the attending conveniences are a given: The visitor is literally minutes’ walk, over the bridge, from Kilkenny Castle and all of the satellite attractions that accompany it such as the beautiful castle grounds and design centres that Kilkenny is justifiably famous for. However, it’s the... More

We booked 3 rooms for a Tuesday night. We were shocked at the price, 69 euro per room and were thinking oh what are we in for??? Any way the rooms were excellent. Double bed & single bed in each room and a fair side bathroom, safe, iron & ironing board, and tea/coffee pot included. The room had a wood... More

Rooms were not clean, snots, grime, mold on the tiles in the bathroom. Couldn't sleep as the walls and floors are paper thin, you could hear every word from the hotel front bar and the music from the adjoining nightclub booms through as clear as day. Some really rude staff, we paid for two meals up front and had to... More

Stayed here 19th April. Room clean, staff at reception friendly and welcoming. Breakfast a disaster! Scrambled eggs so rubbery they probably bounced straight from the chicken to the microwave to the plate. If you do stay here have your breakfast somewhere else.
