great property in central Kilkenny
This very historic property is a treat. The location is perfect, steps from the main intersection of Kilkenny centre but removed enough to be quiet and feel private. So convenient to every attraction and dining/pub venue, so no car needed. Staff were amazing - every person we met was graciously friendly and helpful. Our room was everything we needed and nicely appointed modern bath.
