2-night trip

10/10

A great convenient hotel close to the train station and easy walking distance to the Kilkenny Castle, thw Medieval Mile, and Smithwicks brewery. The included daily breakfasts in the restaurant had a wide variety of choices and were very tasty. There are plenty of pubs nearby for dinners and the other thing that we found very useful was the nearby Brett's laundrette where you can get a good-sized load of clothes washed, dried and folded for 20 Euros.

Spacious room with comfortable bed. Paid for the buffet breakfast, lots of selection. Convenient location, about 5 min walk from bus station and to old town. There was a step inside my room right after opening door. Tripped over it once. Should put yellow masking tape on the carpet step.
