I recently stayed at The Hoban, and it was a delightful experience. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring that all my needs were met with a smile. My room comfortable and well-appointed, but it also provided a serene retreat after a day of exploring. The location was perfect, easily accessible and close to local attractions.

Spirited Kilkenny was Ireland’s capital in the Middle Ages and although many monuments remain from back then, it’s now best known for the 'craic'. Kilkenny cream ale flows in pubs forming part of its legendary nightlife and tours of Smithwick’s showcase Ireland’s oldest operating brewery, on grounds containing the St Francis Abbey ruins.
Kilkenny has the most medieval churches in Ireland. Dating to the 13th-century are the Black Abbey and St Canice’s Cathedral, next to the Round Tower - the only remains of a 9th-century monastery founded by the saint.
Medieval streets, inns and wall remnants still stand, but the most impressive attraction is Kilkenny Castle, in large gardens by the River Nore. The 3-turreted fortress was a former home of the once powerful Butler family.
The Parade leads from here past high street shops to The Tholsel – the porticoed town hall. The Elizabethan merchants’ residence Rothe House is in a similar style. Wandering the colourful streets you can’t fail to notice buildings named after cats, a reference to the residents’ dogged determination. Local hurling team The Cats play at Nowlan Park, and the city hosts the annual Cat Laughs comedy festival, amongst others.
Booking.com’s Kilkenny accommodation includes hotels with spas and pools, and city centre guest houses near the train station.

The imposing Norman castle complex which is 900+ years old is largely intact and well worth a visit even if you think you are not a 'history person'. Guided tour is worthwhile. Also visit the artists workshops in the stables complex opposite as well as adjacent park and gardens.
After the castle go to the related St. Canice's Cathedral. The streets between still have a historic character with old buildings and shop fronts and plenty of places to shop, eat and drink with a predominance of independent traders. Kilkenny is compact and easy to walk round but people with mobility difficulties should check as some parts are steep or served by steps. Kilkenny is close to the main motorway network and would make a good touring base.

We visited for a boys weekend away, 9 years after our last visit and it did not disappoint. So many great independent bars to work your way through, all in close proximity, most with an authentic Iriah feel to them. As usual, the Irish welcome is excellent with live music on tap too. Great place for a boozy weekend.

I loved this mediaeval city .bursting with history and street art , culture, and so many unique and quirky shops. I also love learning about history and loved how many different places I could see and learn about here. The highlights were the castle tour and the shennagins walking tour .

An old medieval town that is not overly touristed.
An old medieval town that is not overly touristed. Lots of lively pubs with friendly local people. I enjoy late night walks and this city seemed completely safe to enjoy at all hours. If you have a car the Rock of Cashel is about an hour away and well worth the trip.
The location is excellent as is not 500 meters far from city centre and most important attractions in Kilkenny as Kilkenny Castle, Medieval Museum, Pubs and Restaurants. Additional, The Owner Angela is the best and lovely to cross some tales with her, she is a truly writer with amazing histories to tell, you can get her books in the hotel and she lovely can sign it for you. She told us that her first book "not forgotten" could be transferred to a movie. Good luck Angela!
Recently we found ourselves needing accommodation due to an emergency in the nearby hospital. We first met Linda at reception who was so kind and caring and couldn’t do enough for us. We had to stay two nights and all the staff were so nice. Such a lovely hotel, delicious food served by lovely staff again. We are forever grateful to the kindness shown to us during a difficult time. Thank you all at Kilkenny House Boutique Hotel 🩷
Staff in the hotel are very friendly and welcoming. The location is great as it's in the city centre. Breakfast was lovely and a good choice. Room was nice but basic enough. Beds were very big and comfy which is a great bonus. The staff make this hotel....from the reception staff, bar staff (night porter was lovely and friendly) and the staff in the breakfast room they were all fantastic.
Clean, warm, breakfast was good, staff very nice, good location and the price.
Traveled with a car,so, town centre was within 5min.Cheapest parking was by the Black Abey, 2euro per day,but we didn't know. Our plan was to walk Medieval Mile http://www.kilkennycityonline.com/images/maps-and-downloads/Medieval-Mile-Map
Every spot is within the few steps, really worth to visit.
Generally it was very clean despite the age of the place. Staff were very good and efficient. Breakfast was great. Nice, hot cooked breakfast with plenty of choices.
Nice, pleasant bar with a fine selection of drinks. Bar food and evening menu are available too.
City centre location. Good WiFi and free parking at the rear of the hotel.
Great Location in the City Centre of Kilkenny , Discounted car parking right opposite the hotel , with Kilkenny Castle just past the end of the street. Room was of good size and very clean. What little interaction i had with the staff in the hotel was pleasant , Staff at the ajoining gym / Swimming Pool very pleasant and helpful.
Fabulous location right by the river in Kilkenny city centre. Awesome terraces in the summer. Real old school, large hotel bar, so stylish. Like from a movie from the beginning of the 20th century. Large and comfortable rooms. Really tasty breakfast. Super friendly staff. Good parking in the yard. Excellent stay.
Fabulous location near Killkenny Castle. Guests can reserve parking in their lot which is very helpful. Breakfast included. They request you to reserve a time for breakfast when you check in. Breakfast was very good. Service at the hotel was attentive and very helpful! Hotel was clean and the gardens beautiful!
Very nice facility in the middle of the town. A short walk to almost everything. Breakfast was about the same as all breakfasts we had. The hotel staff were really nice and helpful. The restaurant was expensive and not very good food.
The apartment is very modern and spacious, in a great location right in the city centre but this means it is noisy at night. The people running the apartment were flexible with offering an earlier check in once the apartment was ready.
I liked the location, the onsite parking and the look and feel of the hotel.
The Hotel is located conveniently to many pubs.
Our room was very nice and comfortable.
We enjoyed our stay and liked the staff
