Really central location and a perfect base for exploring Kilkenny town on foot. The room was nicely decorated and comfortable, but far too warm. We left the windows open overnight to try to keep it cool, which meant a lot of early morning noise from delivery trucks on the street below. There was a desk fan in the room, but that wasn't great, and it was very noisy too. Breakfast was a standard buffet, nothing special. The kids loved the pool, which is accessed via an underground walkway to the leisure centre across the road. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
