The hotel itself was great and offered an amazing made-to-order breakfast in the morning. The location is great as well, right near the Medieval Mile and close to Kilkenny Castle. My only complaint was the rooms did not have air conditioning, so it was uncomfortable sleeping.

The location was excellent. We enjoyed the breakfast, which was included in the price. We also enjoyed the drinks and live music at the pub. The initial impression of our room was not great, as the carpet and some of the furniture were stained.

The hotel is in the heart of the city. The staff was kind and suggested many different restaurants and sites to visit. There is no AC in the room. However, it was very comfortable to sleep. The room is spacious and clean. The breakfast was included. However, it was a little underwhelming. The coffee machine was broken. The bar is gorgeous and a great place to have a drink and a bite to wat at the end of the day.
