Kilkenny Ormonde Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room good facilities. Late night cap available.Parking across the road very convenient and as we only used one parking space for two motorbikes we were only charged for one.Very helpful staff a credit to your hotel."

Hotel Kilkenny

2/10 Terrible

"We were travelling through ireland and had booked this hotel for 2 nights months in advance. A few hours before we arrived, we called to see if our room would have a mini fridge, we were told that they would have one in our room for us..great! We went to the grocery store amd bought $30 euro worth of meat, cheese and dairy for our road trips while staying there. Three hours later upon arrival, we were told there was a flood and the roof had collapsed and they couldn't accommodate us. We drove hours to get there, the roof didnt just suddenly collapse, so they would have known that when we called earlier enquiring about the fridge. They told us they had set us up in another hotel 10 minutes away. Now we load everything back up and head there. This was a "family resort" with a Jurassic Park attached to it. We walked in and there were crying children everywhere, not even an empty seat in the lobby to sit in. We called around to find another hotel with availability. We found the River Court Hotel and booked for 2 nights. When I called Jamie back, he was rather unprofessional and chastised us for choosing a "3.star" hotel over a 4 star. Expedia was amazing helping us get a refund and I would highly recommend the River Court hotel instead. Literal walking distance to everything Kilkenny offers"

Treacy's Hotel Waterford Spa & Leisure Centre

6/10 Okay

"A very central location, near bus station and train station. I didnt interact with staff very much, but did not find them particularly friendly. The room was a reasonable size and comfortable. On 2 nights out of 3 I was woken up more than once between midnight and 2am by noise from other guests. It appears to be a coach parties hotel. The breakfast was not one of the best. Cheap sausages and overcooked thin bacon. A limited choice of breakfast items, e.g..no yoghurt or cheese, or rolls. Just a production line for the coach parties."
