Central location but a quiet room. Really comfy bed and bath tub to give it a taste of luxury. Great ala carte breakfast and a bit less inspiring continental buffet for a tasty start for the day.

Our stay in Kilkenny was incredible. We were able to check in a few hours earlier and really appreciated this - we were exhausted! The hotel is located in the centre. We walked around the entire afternoon and enjoyed the sun and local food & history. The staff is friendly and sweet and made sure we felt comfortable during our stay. We slept well throughout the night (it was so quiet!) and enjoyed a delicious breakfast in the morning. Parking was available and easily accessible. We would definitely stay here again!

The Avalon is my first choice of hotel when visiting my family in Kilkenny. The rooms are really comfortable and tastefully decorated, the inclusion of a coffee machine is very welcome. The hotel has a very homely atmosphere and the staff are wonderful, so kind and friendly. I would really recommend breakfast, a good selection of local produce really well cooked and served. Thank you for another wonderful stay

ni Hotel exceeded all expectations! The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making our stay truly special. The rooms were spotlessly clean and cozy, providing a comfortable retreat. The on-site restaurant served exceptional food, making it a highlight of our visit. Overall, Zuni offers a perfect blend of excellent service, cleanliness, and culinary delights. Highly recommended!

Kilkenny has a lot to offer.

Kilkenny has a lot to offer. A lot of history and a lot of historic buildings and nice shops etc. The Kilkenny Bookshop... excellent. Lovely ambiance there. Yesterday's shop is a lovely experience. Plenty night life for the more adventurous. We had a meal and breakfast in Rafter's and everything was lovely there. Weren't there long enough to visit any of the buildings but maybe next time.

We had a walk around and found it to be very quiet, no loud noise we actually liked it. The takeaway food was fabulous and really good value. It was the perfect location for us as the event we were attending was only 17mins away.

Inistioge was charming.

Inistioge was charming. We ventured into the village for supplies and the little store had everything. The pub staff were friendly, but you need to go early if you’re looking for a meal. It’s very busy. Our party wasn’t a walking party as it included two elderly ladies, but they loved the views from the benches. There is ample opportunity to walk and some lovely trails. If you like bird-watching there are lots to see including a resident heron that you can see from the bridge.

Such a beautiful place you can rent bikes to go along the canal also boat trip! Beautiful chipper fab pubs and just beautiful scenery if your looking for a relaxing night away this is it. The staff in water side guest house are absolutely lovely & so helpful! Also the breakfast is amazing. I will continue to come back every year with my children as they love to fish for the Minos in the canal so bring some fishing nets and a bucket for some extra fun.

Freshford is a typical country village with not too much going on. That being said, we found the chip shop, "The Brennan Sisters" food to be super - too good - we ended up eating from it every night! We didnt go into the local pubs as after days sightseeing, we just wanted to chill. The Church in the village was beautiful too. Great, well stocked Mace supermarket close to the accommodation.

I hadn't been to Kilkenny for a good number of years and I was blown away by how pretty and accessible the town was. We were there at Halloween so it was very atmospheric, ghost tour was great too. There were so many interesting shops and lovely restuarants, Paris Texas was particularly good. ALL the bars were great with music most nights, Fields and Matt Millars were particularly good. I'm thinking of going back again for the christmas markets.

Thomastown was an excellent base for visiting sites in Kilkenny, Dunbrody Famine Ship at New Ross, Waterford Crystal Factory, Hook Lighthouse among others. There are a number of closer places of interest such as Jerpoint Abbey. The only drawback was the lack of options for evening meals although Kilkenny is only a 15 minute drive away and fills the bill perfectly!

I don’t know it as a tourist centre in its own right but it is a reasonable car drive to other sights in the county south of Kilkenny City. It,s a very convenient stop-off on the way to Rosslare evening ferry, with time to visit one or two sights on the way.
