Rooms are spacious and clean. Lots of different hallways to go down to get to our room but it was nice. Great central location, staff, were helpful and polite. We would definitely stay here again.
Tony, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved this hotel! So much charm and class! Lovely breakfast. Interesting pubs connected to the hotel. Right in the heart of everything downtown. Great experience! The room is a bit dated and the bathroom needed an upgrade - the shower curtain clung to us as we showered, but the location and overall charm made up for it. We would stay here again!
Daniel, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

No issues. Great location. Great stay.
Paul, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Basic, no-frills room.
A very average stay—the hotel is a classic old (not in a cute way for the rooms) Irish hotel. Everything is very basic, which is fine except it cost a fortune. My main issue was the bed—very uncomfortable. This is all a review of the room—the bar is charming and the people are nice.

First Time in Kilkenny - but not the last
Kilford Arms was a lovely place to stay fir our first vidut to Kilkenny. The staff were first class and all assustance was fulfilled with speed and efficiency. The room was more than adequate clean and comfortable and the hotel accessible and central - a great base for visiting nearby medieval sotes such as The Rock of Cashel and Vahir Castle. Lovely place to stay.
