Hotel Kilkenny
"Breakfast food and service best thing about hotel. Otherwise disappointing in comparison with other hotels in Ireland, some quite a bit less expensive. Room definitely needs refurbishing, especially bathroom--a bit shabby. Bar and restaurant service lackluster and food okay but not great. Good location. ..."
