Kilford Arms Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This Hotel is older and it just has a wonderfully comfortable feel to it. It was beautiful, our room was spacious, we had a wonderful stay. Loved it!"

Rafter'S Gastropub

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at Rafter's for our first night in Ireland, and it was a great start to the trip. The location was perfect, only about a five minute walk to Kilkenny Castle. Gerry was an awesome host, he made us feel so welcome and even invited my mother-in-law behind the bar to make an Irish coffee to compete with his. After dinner, we had a drink at the pub and there was live music; it only played until 9:30, so it didn't keep us from sleeping! The breakfast was included and there were many options, all amazing and made fresh. Would recommend to anyone looking for a more authentic Kilkenny experience."
