Top Ballyouskill Hotel Reviews

Midlands Park Hotel

8/10 Good

"The meeting rooms are excellent, but having to pay for a room before you use it and will need coffees and or food throughout the day seems unreasonable to me. But room keys would not be handed over until the room was fully paid in advance, and then any refreshments throughout the day had to be paid for individually. I have been using meeting rooms throughout the 32 counties for over 25 years and have not been met with the attitude at the front desk on arrival. Disappointing, as the rooms and location are excellent"

SpringHill Hotel

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and comfortable. They need to add further hooks to hang towels. Please supply larger towels as not every body is a size 10/12."

Talbot Hotel Carlow

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely staff, lots of parking. Very easy to get uber if want to leave the property for a drink etc. The pool was nice kids injoyed it, although remember to bring a swimming hat as it is mandatory."

Lyrath Estate Hotel Spa & Convention Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice hitel and great service"

Kilford Arms Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location for exploring this quaint town. Rooms were very clean. Staff were awesome. They were efficient when checking us in, provided lots of helpful information and very friendly. Highly recommend staying here"

Kilkenny Ormonde Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"No taxis"

The Lodges at Kilkea Castle

10/10 Excellent

"Kilkea Castle was a wonderful stay. Last minute we booked a room in the Lodges; unfortunately, the actual Castle was all booked up. This didn’t lessen the experience though. The lodge room was clean, comfortable, well-appointed and had a fairway view. We were also able to use the facilities in the castle itself. We weren’t there to golf and that was just as well as the course was closed for maintenance. As a golfer the course did look like a premium course, and I’d love to go back for another stay and a round."

Pembroke Hotel

8/10 Good

"Convenient location if using train station! Lovely hotel with unique and tastefully designed rooms. Comfortable, safe, kind service. Lovely breakfast! I would stay again."

Kilkenny Hibernian Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely boutique hotel in walkable location to all the attractions. Enjoyed a delicious bowl of seafood chowder in the gorgeous bar. Bed and bedding were very comfortable. Breakfast had a large buffet selection plus a hot breakfast cooked to order. Perfectly comfortable 1st night in Ireland after a long journey and jet lag."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Ballyouskill?

While Ballyouskill itself is a smaller, rural village, the best area to stay for exploring this part of County Kilkenny is generally in the nearby towns of Freshford or Urlingford.Freshford, located just a short drive from Ballyouskill, offers a convenient base with a few local pubs and shops. The village is centered around its historic church and a pleasant village green, providing a quiet, community feel. It's an excellent choice for travelers who appreciate being close to rural settings but still desire a small town's amenities.Urlingford, slightly larger and located off a main road, provides more accommodation options and services. It's a practical choice for those who plan to explore a wider area, offering easy access to larger towns and attractions in County Kilkenny and Tipperary.

When is the best time to go to Ballyouskill?

For couples seeking a tranquil and scenic getaway, this period provides an ideal balance of good weather and a relaxed atmosphere.While July and August offer the warmest weather and the longest daylight hours, they also coincide with the busiest tourist season, potentially leading to more crowded attractions and higher prices. For families traveling with school-aged children, late June or early July can still be a good option, balancing good weather with the start of summer holidays, allowing for enjoyable visits to local historical sites and outdoor parks.
