Our 3rd time here and as always it was a lovely break. Staff great and food Fab. Will be back again.
Can’t fault the hotel or staff & the breakfast was very good. The room was clean & the bed was comfortable. There’s no air con but there was a fan in the room. The only thing I would say is the bathroom needed a little updating but overall we had a great stay.
The receptionist was a lovely lady and explained everything to us on our arrival ie. Where breakfast was being served, the bars and restaurant etc. The hotel itself is basic and in need of updating. We had our evening meal in the main bar/ lounge and it was quite nice. Out of 10 I would rate our meal 6.5. The bedroom was very basic and in need of updating. Would we go back - No. Would we recommend the hotel - No.
Was a worthwhile Trip for myself and my partners Anniversary. Location central and ideal for shopping. Food in the Pub was excellent and cosy atmosphere. Would strongly recommend !
Hotel very central . Staff very friendly and helpful will definitely return .
Nice room, which was ready even though we arrived early. Friendly helpful staff. Excellent food. Conveniently located. Not far to walk to train station or to centre of town
All of the staff we met were friendly, professional and very helpful. We enjoyed lovely food with great pints of Guinness. It appeared that management were hands on & were driving quality through a great team. The central location of hotel was excellent. My husband and I enjoyed our short break in the hotel.
Everything was easy and quick. Staff were fab at bar, reception and breakfast. Brillant location, would return.
We enjoyed our 2 nights in the Kilford Arms, room was basic but very clean.staff very friendly, professional and accommodating.Dinner on both nights was lovely.. breakfast look and tasted plastic.that was the only downside.
Very nice room. Very modern. Breakfast superb. Nice bar . Good food. We had salads.
We have stayed in the Kilford Arms several times. Keep going back because we always feel so welcome. The staff are great . Always so welcomeing. The food is superb. The rooms are spotless. We have introduced a lot of our friends to the hotel and they keep coming back now. We love Alison and John and its lovely when they come over to chat.

We had a really enjoyable experience at the kilford arms. The lady at reception was so welcoming and got us checked in early despite check in being 3pm and we arrived at 12. The rooms are kept to a high standard and clean . The breakfast had a wide variety of hot and cold food. We will definitely return :)
Great hotel very friendly staff.rooms lovely and clean. Park up your car and leave it there untill you are ready to go home. Two minutes to the town. This was our fourth time staying in the kilford Arms. We will definitely be staying there again
This was our 20 something stay in the Kilford and all have been excellent, lovely staff,a great pint of Guinness, good food,a lovely freshly cooked breakfast in the morning, music some nights and in the heart of the city,what's not to like.
staff and food lovely.room okay but beds very hard.nightclub is a nightmare when it is on,,it closed at 11.30 this day but when people left another 20 minutes of people screaming and shouting before it when quiet,,
Really happy with it. Was cheap and cheerful. Slept perfect, ridiculously full from the range they had for brekfast. Only reason it's a 4 instead of 5 was the shower was cold, but I didn't tell anyone cause I wasn't too bothered by it.
We have stayed in the kilford arms 5 times now and find if very comfortable and excellent location for center of town.

Lovely food ,relaxed atmosphere
Smell of must in the room and especially the lbathroom. Had dinner the first night. Turkey, ham and stuffing bland. Vegetables, a few chips and mash were all overlapping on the plate. Food presentation was very poor and not appetising.
Grand size room. Good food and nice staff. Central location and free parking!
Great value, food very good, rooms basic but clean. Very central. Only down fall was room we were giving for family room 55 was straight overhead nightclub door it wasn't even the noise of music that bothered us it was the screaming lingering teenagers going in and out of club not ideally with a toddler.
The staff make this hotel extremely accommodating nothing was to much trouble very friendly value for money only negative is dated furniture but what do expect for the price breakfast delicious will be back

Lovely friendly hotel . Staff in the reception were so helpful and friendly .food was
Our third time to stay here. I have not submitted a review before but after three hassle free trips, I think that it is time. Rooms are comfy and spacious. Beds are very comfortable. Food is excellent and the service was faultless. The Hotel may be a bit Dated but this is more than compensated for with the quality of service and value for money.
We enjoyed a very inexpensive break in this quirky hotel built around the ruins of an old Church -very unusual. Room seemed to have been recently refurbished and was very pleasant. The city centre location meant we didn't need the car.Food was served all day and reasonably priced.All the staff we met were friendly and helpful. We would stay here again especially at the price we paid.
Staff brilliant location brilliant and food excellent service outstanding
Had a lovely two nite stay here with my husband, room was very comfortable clean and warm, good shower in bathroom, staff very friendly and helpful, we ate dinner and lunch in the hotel and the food was very tasty, we would definitely recommend this hotel to friends and family if ever on a visit to kilkenny, well worth the deal we got for our stay, 5 stars from us
Had absolutely a lovely time. The room was lovely and comfortable and cleaned everyday Definitely recommend.
Had a great trip to Kilkenny the hotel was very clean staff very attentive food was excellent and everyone was very friendly and nice would definitely recommend to a friend or family remember and will definitely go back.
Excellent lovely staff and food
Friendly staff, good bar, food mediocre, only big downfall was trying to access the hotel after 10pm
Great staff, food and location.only negative could do with larger beds.

Great hotel, central location.
Lovely hotel Staff very kind and helpful
Lovely hotel. Great food. Lovely and friendly staff. Comfortable rooms
Great deal, lovely food
Rooms very very basic and the room we were in had no window which in this day and age I think is a bit poor especially when every room was the same price. Hotel itself like reception area was lovely and the food in the bar was beautiful. I would return to the hotel but would definitely be asking for a room with a window.
This is an honest decent hotel. Excellent food and staff. Rooms spotless. Great value for money. We will be back. No notions!!!!
We find the Kilford Arms hotel very good and the staff very friendly. There is free parking and it is very central to the city of Kilkenny. We stay there a lot and look forward to the breakfast but this time we found the breakfast just o.k. there was a big crowd for the breakfast but this was not the problem the scrambled eggs were awful and they are usually nice but there seemed to be a taste of fish off them for some reason also a lot of the breakfast was cold normally the breakfast is lovely and always hot, but we still enjoyed our stay.
Lovely hotel Staff very kind and helpful
Lovely hotel Staff very kind and helpful
Lovely hotel lovely staff really enjoyed the break and well recommended.
Lovely hotel with very friendly staff.The bar food has something for everyone and is reasonably priced and nice too. Location is excellent
My goodness , this must be the most depressing hotel in Ireland . No welcome from reception , staff all roaming around frowning and looking lost. Horrible atmosphere , no wonder they are offering cheap deals. The management either haven't a clue or don't care about running a hotel properly . In fairness, the food was decent and a good portion but when it's slapped down on the table it leaves a sour taste in the mouth. I don't think anyone would ever come back, we certainly won't be. Also, the room we were given was a mile away from the lift and above the main road. Never got a winks sleep all night due to party goers and traffic. Informed receptionist next day and was smartly told it would be quieter tonight. I asked to change room and she reluctantly agreed. Customer service in this country is non existent . Upon checkout we expected to be asked how was our stay. They never even bothered to ask. Sadly I think this hotel will be in trouble down the line, avoid if you want to enjoy Kilkenny.
Good location with parking.
Enjoyed the stay in comfort. The staff were very helpful in both reception and bar
Good evening, Just a note of thanks on behalf of my wife and myself for our recent stay in the Kilford Arms. We stayed 2 nights from 05-07/09/2023 in Room 55. We had a wonderful stay and your staff were of the highest order. They were mannerly and courteous at all times which made our stay more enjoyable Can we give a special mention to Sophia who looked after us for our evening meal on Wednesday. She went out of her way to make the evening meal enjoyable and she was so mannerly she is a great credit to herself. Can you pass on our thanks to her. We will certainly be returning and anyone who asks us about your hotel we will highly recommend it Mary and Kieran O Hanlon
Good location with parking.
Brilliant hotel excellent facilities great value lovely staff great food and service lovely to see a fan and bottles of water in the room nice touch will definitely return again ????
We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Kilkenny and the stay in the Kilford Arms Hotel. Our room was big and very clean, very comfortable beds and an excellent breakfast in the restaurant, which is designed to keep in mind, the history of Kilkenny castle. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly and very efficient and professional in their duties. Our dinner was beautiful and there is a big car park to the rear of the hotel which is free for guests. This hotel is very central to everything in Kilkenny, an ideal location for any trip.
the location of the hotel was ideal.The room was comfortable and well stocked with tea making facilities,Ironing ,tv and bathroom was great for facilities.The breakfast was very good and served by very attentive staff.The staff generally were very courteous and helpfull.Parking for motorists very good.

Quality hotel clean good meals very good service staff excellent
The lovely lady on reception when we checked in Sunday afternoon should be an ambassador for Kilkenny.., and the hotel! Such a positive first impression, and we subsequently really enjoyed our stay. Great breakfast, very comfy room and generally very positive. We were late bookers, and our room was overlooking the alleyway to the carpark and the pub next door was playing a constant diet of country and Irish music, hence the 4 instead of 5 stars! :-) Seriously though, lovely place and highly recommended!! Oh - the 11.00 breakfast deadline is a winner!!! Nothing worse than having to rush in the morning for a bite, and the later deadline here was a very welcome surprise!!!
Great hotel. Food is fab. Staff are so friendly and nice. Will definitely be back .thanks kilford Arms

Stayed in the hotel for 2 nights on the 4/9/2022 beds very comfortable and pillows .yea and coffee making facilities. Free car park .very central train station 5 minutes walk all amenities down the road .staff very friendly and food nice .
Booked the 2nt 2 breakfast with one evening meal of 2 courses plus tea/coffee. Checking in was good, room basic, but comfortable and clean, bathroom was disappointing. We decided to have the dinner on the first night. Very basic menu and the food and service wasn't good. We asked for the bill so we could pay for the wine, when we noticed that the "complimentary coffee" was charged for. When we pointed this out the bar staff said we should pay for it, but when we queried this and they checked with reception, they stated that on this occasion they wouldn't charge for the coffee. This seemed like they were doing us a favour. I went to reception to clear up the situation, when the same member of bar staff became very irate, telling me to "pack your bag and get out, that you have been trouble all evening". We felt very uncomfortable, but stayed the night. The next morning the breakfast was ok and service was good. We decided that we didn't want to stay the second night and agreed with the receptionist to have a refund for one nights room rate. This receptionist was very dry and did not wish us well on our way. I realise that this started over an error about the coffee on the hotel's part, but how it ended was very poor customer service. Obviously staff should be made aware of the booking conditions and what is included. Unfortunately I could not recommend this hotel to anyone.
Price ,staff ,location ,brilliant Only criticism frosted windows in room but I will definitely be back favourite place in Kilkenny to stay
Convenient location and car park.

Lovely hotel central location food is fab and big portions staff friendly and welcoming
Enjoyed my stay and the staff were lovely,will be back????
We found the staff very friendly and helpful
My main course dinner was cold.. as it was a pity as rooms was nice
Central location & free safe parking. Staff are friendly & welcoming. Room was spotless but in line with the age of the hotel, the bathroom would benefit from a refit. Food was simple and tasty. Amazing incorporation of ruined ancient church into the building. No hesitation in returning! Nice stay.
Very happy with most aspects. I am a wheelchair user and it wasn’t very wheelchair accessible. You had to come out the front door of the hotel and enter the bar or restaurant through another door on the Main Street. We were lucky it wasn’t raining. The ramp here is a few inches to short to be a ramp. Then I had to get out and walk up the steps to the restaurant. So there was actually no wheelchair access to the restaurant. We would definitely go back though. Staff were lovely and helpful. Food was gorgeous, room was lovely and all very reasonably priced.
Very friendly staff and very helpful.Great food reasonably priced .Very clean hotel.will definitely return before the end of 2022.
I had stayed at Kilford Arms Hotel on a few occasions before and will again. Its in a good location. Car parking could be a bit better.I wa impressed with table service where Breakfast was served in a professional manner.
I was appalled that staff were either not wearing masks at times or wearing them inadequately. The bathroom had visible signs that it had not been cleaned e.g stains on the basin ad dirt on the floor. I wouldn't recommend this hotel based on these aspects
Very friendly staff. Food and service was excellent. The only problem was very noisy at night. Loud music and people shouting in the hallway.
Great Location With Free Parking A + Value for money Room Warm & very clean Food ok pub standard Would Recommend
Great food, great Staff, great location, looking forward to staying here again
Will definitely stay here again, enjoyed every minute, food and staff first class. Thank you so much kilford Arms ,gerry and Monica sweeney

We checked into the hotel on Wednesday we arrived to Kilkenny at around 12:30 lunchtime. We decided to ask the hotel could we store our bags if we where too early to check in, but to be told our room was ready. The room itself was clean lovely view and very comfy. Staff very friendly and helpful and both residents bars lovely for a quiet drink and dinner. The breakfast was incredible and our dinner option the food was delicious. I would highly recommend staying in this hotel and I plan on using irishminibreaks.ie again.
Very central with parking. Food was good and the breakfast was really nice. Staff were helpful and cheerful. Would stay there again, great value for the money we paid.
The central location of the Kilford Arms hotel was great! Nice to 'park up' the car from arrival to departure & explore Kilkenny on foot. Hotel room spacious & spotless. The bottles of water were much appreciated ! Reception & wait staff were very friendly & helpful. Dinner & breakfast were quite good considering the price! We found the hotel on the LIDL deals platform & were extremely happy with the whole experience.
Great room - very clean and warm - and very nice room for the price. Television and desk and bath all in room. Breakfast was ok (not great veggie options) but very good for the price! Overall would absolutely recommend

We stayed in this hotel for 4 days, they followed present restrictions perfectly, at any stage we didnt feel as if we were at risk. We had a twin room which was great , the only niggle I had was in the bathroom you had to climb over bath to have a shower and as I have arthritis it proved difficult. The food in hotel was superb and had good choices. I would reccomend this hotel and will definitely stay there again.

It was our second trip to your hotel this year. We absolutely loved it. Staff were extremely nice and we're always on hand to assist us in any way. Food was excellent, we didn't go elsewhere for our meals it was so good. Breakfast was great with a large choice of food. Staff there were very attentive and nice. Bedrooms are spotless and very comfortable. We have already recommended The Kilford Arms to many friends here in Derry and we ourselves would not hesitate to go back. A great experience in a lovely city. Thanks to all your staff.

Fabulous hotel .Great location. Super breakfast and Fabulous staff
We chose The Kilford Arms as a welcome break after the Lockdowns. It has a bright and very clean appearance, 2 bars, beer garden, and restaurant. Big Screen and televisions for Sport. Staff were efficient and took time to talk to people, special mention due to Ella in Bar and Don in Restaurant. Room was small with some noise from a bar across the way, when mentioned to Manager Pius, he moved us very quickly to a quieter room. Food: very good Breakfast, excellent Evening Meal. We booked an extra night on this occasion and will definitely return.
We enjoyed our stay great staff and location. We will be returning.
Excellent accommodation - staff friendly, food brilliant and plenty of it. Convenient to the shops. Would definitely go back.
Great staff from reception bar and breakfast nothing was too much .Great outdoor space for a drink .Will be back soon
Loved our stay at the Kilford Arrms Hotel. Very welcoming, wonderful polite and efficient friendly staff. Food was excellent. The room was lovely but owing to the extreme hot weather it was a little uncomfortable to sleep at night. Not the hotels fault. They did supply fans. Kilkenny is a lovely place to visit. Plenty to see and do.
Lovely friendly hotel, staff are lovely and credit to the hotel
Everything was perfect. The room was spacious and clean, the food was excellent and the staff welcoming and efficient.
We had a wonderful stay in the Kilford arms, the food was exceptional as was the staff who were very kind and couldn't do enough for us. Breakfast was lovely and plenty of options for food. The room was great. We loved our stay so much that we booked another mini break at the end of August while we were there !! Two extremely satisfied customers. We would highly recommend your hotel to anyone.
Lovely hotel. Staff really friendly.
Service very good and good value in hotel.
Staff were brilliant and very friendly and the hotel was clean Unfortunately there was no airconditioning anywhere in the hotel bar the reception area and with the weather being very hot there was not a breath of cool air . What didn't help further to this the round window was screwed closed in room 36 my freinds room and it was like a oven and nothing was done even after being reported
Staff were brilliant and the hotel and room were clean . The weather for our 3 day stay was 30 degrees daily and unfortunately there was not a breath of cold air anywhere in the hotel barring the reception . There was small fans in the rooms but the round windows were screwed shut so no ventilation and it was reported but not amended for room 36 . Barring the heat and ventilation issue the hotel has great location friendly clean and has a good breakfast if included in your deal .
Great location. Breakfast good. Staff were very helpful and friendly.

Central hotel for spending time in Kilkenny Food excellent
Great staff and great service in a good central location.
Great location and very friendly and helpful staff. Good value for money.
Our stay was enjoyable. The staff were friendly and kind. The only thing was the lack of air conditioning. But they used a fan though. I understand it's old buildings. Maybe at some stage they can do something about thos. But not a mojar issue.
Staff very friendly and helpful
great hotel value for money and the staff were great and very helpful
Absolutely enjoyed my stay in this hotel .food was gorgeous and plenty of it ...staff were brilliant..would highly recommend this hotel
Lovely hotel...staff were very friendly & helpful. We will be booking again to stay here
Nice hotel, nice staff, great location.
The location of the hotel is ideal and there is on site parking hence I would recommend it for that. The hotel is a bit tired & grotty looking and could do with a sprucing up. The glass doors into reception have so many stickers on them it doesn't look very inviting. Not all staff members followed the current guidelines for COVID-19 i.e. either to socially distance or wear a mask/face covering when unable to social distance. In general there was a lot of staff on duty during breakfast & in the bar but not all were aware or vigilant that customers should come before there social chats.
So relaxing and staff were very friendly and welcoming and attentive the food was delicious breakfast and dinner we didn’t want to leave so thanks again bargain breaks and the Kilford arms will be returning soon

Absolutely brilliant place to stay. Right in the centre of town, 5 minutes from train station. Staff in hotel could not do enough for you. Would highly recommend and I am already looking at another date to go again before Christmas
Grand Hotel the only criticism during the epidemic the one toaster was so inadequate with civid 19 with everyone queuing otherwise no complaints Lovely friendly ????
Really courteous and obliging horel staff. Very clean and very organised
From the minute we arrived until the time we left the staff were excellent / knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and the breakfast excellent. Highly recommended
hotel was very central in the center of kilkenny 5 mins to kilkenny castle walking staff was friendly food was fabulous hotel was very clean hand sanitizer everywhere and cleaning on going
Found this hotel very good on the whole Covid-19 measures were in place and staff were all helpful and friendly. Breakfast was good we also had an evening meal whilst this was ok would have liked it a little hotter but cheese cake was really nice. Would definitely stay again.
Really enjoyed our few days in Kilford Arms. Food was excellent and bedroom very clean.

4 stars. Very good hotel. the room had all the basics and more very good size and bathroom was great. Stay was extremely comfortable. the staff were friendly and helpful. Excellent location. bar and restaurant were excellent also. Well done to the staff and management!
Kilford arms is a lovely hotel. Well situated in the heart of Kilkenny city. Rooms are lovely and I loved the adjustable thermostat on the radiators. Sometimes hotel rooms can be too warm but that wasn't a problem here. Hotel very quite so good nights sleep. Breakfast was lovely and plenty of it. Staff were lovely too. Already planning our next visit!lidl website easy to navigate and we got a great deal. Thumbs up!!
My Mum and I had a perfect stay here. Room spotless and warm. Staff very helpful. Food excellent. We would recommend it to anyone for a break in Kilkenny. Location is ideal for sightseeing and shopping. Thank you all for a memorable stay. We will return.
Service on arrival was shocking to say the least staff member was rude and bossy .dinner that evening there was no culturey on table ask for some never got one of my friends was left waiting for food rest had eating theirs when arrived not good enough .rooms were nice .but over all the staff need to be trained on their manners
Location perfect , Staff friendly,food very tasty and music good,Enjoyed stay.
We recently stayed here for 3nights. I had asked for quiet rooms and we got them. We found the staff very friendly and helpful. It was early in the week, so no partying or noise. Rooms were very clean and the food was fine for the money. It was superb value for money and very central.
I regret to say that I was unable to make it to the Kilford Arms Hotel Kilkenny due to personal problems, I did ring the Hotel and explained but they said they could not refund my deposit. Regards Pauline Eaton
Hotel rooms were fine with facilities of a 4* (kettle, iron, hairdryer) but the dinner we got was truly awful. Breakfast was fine. We told both restaurant manager and front desk lady and she was to look into it but we heard nothing at all. Would not consider staying there again.
Car parking fantastic, wish I could say the same for the rest of the hotel, room could do with a visit from the Brennan brothers, view from the room well I don't no the glass was stained. Breakfast lovely, waiter very friendly. Dinner horrible, thankfully a lot other options to dine out in the town. Would I return no way.
What can I say, wonderful staff, location and hotel. We had a lovely stay in the Kilford Arms Hotel. We will be definitely back to stay again. Michael was so helpful as were all the staff. Such friendly people and nothing was every a bother. I liked the relaxed ways of the people and so professional at all times. They have a great way about them. Its like one big happy family. I'd recommend anyone staying in the hotel. The location is just excellent.
My wife and I arrived at the Kilford Arms on Tues 22nd April 2014 for 2BB1D. First of all, the car park at the rear of the hotel was very handy. The lady at receiption (Anna) was very welcoming. The room was clean, tidy and peaceful. We had the evening meal the first night. It was very tasty. The French and Portuguese waiters were very helpful and very keen to make our stay satisfying. The dining hall was a Mexican style. The breakfast on both mornings was top notch. The Manager allowed us to leave our car in the car park all day on the date we checked out. We loved the Kilford Arms, Kilkenny. Thanks to all the staff. Jimmy Gollogly
Great place we were made very Welcome and it was very relaxing thanks very much would love to go again, A lovely place to visit and most important the people were very nice, And staff thank you very much for a lovely stay, Kind regards Gerard and Sandra,
Stayed here one night with my husband, pleasantly surprised. As it was so reasonably priced I didn't expect it to be as good as it was. Lovely room, staff were very nice and helpful. Would stay here again and recommend it to friends.
have stayed here numerously over the years and always had great time..booked this time with work crew for night away..such good value..everyone raving about it and we will defo book again with lidl.breakaways..hotel was great..rooms have become a bit dated at this stage but clean and absolutely sufficient if you want lively night away..staff very good..loved new idea of concierge giving you rundown of hotel and directions from the beginning and lovely touch of water in the room etc...food excellent and certainly great menu for only package deal etc..girl in restaurant particularly friendly and efficient...will be staying again as always as you cant beat it for night in kilkenny...location location location!!!... Niamh ... Dublin
Stayed for one overnight to meet with family and friends...couldnt fault location, hotel, staff etc...as long as you dont mind staying awake all night...only choose this hotel if you want to party.Great location and Car Park included. Ate in the Bar and food was very good. Overall I would stay again and would recommend it for location and food but not for a quiet weekend away or a family break.
Group of friends stayed for one night, lovely food, excellent service. would stay again.Very central
We had a most enjoyable stay in Kilford Arms hotel in Kilkenny, staff were very helpful and friendly, food was good and rooms bright and clean and loads of supplies for tea/coffee making facilities. We would definitely return to this hotel and recommend it to others. It is within walking distance to bus/train station and very central. We really enjoyed our stay there. Thanks.
We loved this hotel .Great for a mad weekend away . (not for a family with young kids. ). Every member of staff at this hotel was extremely professional and polite from the recepionist , bar staff , resturant staff and door men . Rooms and bathroom were spotless. We will stay here again , great value for money and geart location .Just 5 mins walk to city centre.
I am sorry to say but out of the Lidl breaks we have been on, this one was not so good, Our room was freezing so my husband went to reception where he was told she forgot to put our heating on, evening meal was a disaster, I was half way through my starter when we asked the waitress where my husbands starter was, she had forgotten to order it, I ordered the roast beef which was sour We were offered a free dessert but i could not eat as the taste in my mouth was vile, I will us Lidl breaks again, but will not stay in the Kilford arms hotel again..
Had a great weekend stay at the kilford arms this past weekend. The atmosphere was great and so was the entertainment. I look forward to returning again in the future.
Stayed for 2 nights B&B. Room spacious and clean. Double bed could do with a new mattress as on one side it was a bit lumpy. Staff very friendly and efficient. Breakfast was a bit slap dash. By the time we got through it, the food had gone cold. However microwave available if needed. Not huge selection of fresh fruit or different types of bread at breakfast. Had meal in the bar and food was excellent there. Overall enjoyed our stay. Hotel very central with own car park which was a plus.
staff friendly and helpfull breakfast very tasty smell of cigarettes in room but clean and comfortable
The Kilford arms hotel,was one of the best hotels we have stayed in with the children, the room was very spacious everyone had their own space,it was clean and airy,which was much appreciated by my son who has asthma. The staff were very friendly and helpfull.We only had a short stay but we all said if we ever get to go to killkenny again we would stay there again it was so central and having its own car park was a big advantage.
We stayed for a three night break, hotel has an excellent location and free car parking, found staff in general to be friendly which are the only positives to be found. Overall the hotel was in a poor state of cleanliness in all public areas, corridors to bedrooms not clean and the bedroom itself has a bloodied handprint on the wall. The standard of breakfast was very poor, the hot plate was cold you had to heat your breakfast in the microwave, the selection of cereals was from lidl/aldi and was poor. The bar was dirty but the staff where friendly. Overall it was a very dissappointing stay and i would not go back the Kilford Arms again.
stayed for 2 nights B&B in early september. check-in was fast and efficient. room was fine but extremely warm and couldn't leave window open because of noise from outside, fan in room was a necessity.bathroom flooded after a shower.only had breakfast in the hotel, not impressed with it at all.poor selection of hot food,no cold meats,cheeses, was expecting a full breakfast menu.didn't bother with the hotel bar or nightclub. seemed to be a mecca for stag/hen parties,not my scene. wouldn't stay again even with an offer. 2 star rating because of size of room,built in iron,tea/coffe making facilities. F & M, Tipperary
excellent time staff and facilities first class
Enjoyed our stay for three nights bed and breakfast. Hotel is in a great location in the centre of Kilkenny with free parking, Service and food was excellent. Staff very friendly and helpful.
Loved Kilkenny. Loved our stay at Kilford Arms Hotel. Twin room very spacious indeed. Hotel/rooms/restaurant spotlessly clean. Staff brilliant!! Couldn't do enough. Extremely couteous/polite/friendly. Would definitely recommend this hotel & will most definitely be returning.
Brilliant place to stay no need to move outside it has everything bar/nightclub karaoke ballads,food was lovely staff very friendly, no complaints only twin room very tiny but staff accommodated us :)
We stayed for two nights, found everything perfect from staff, service, cleanliness, and entertainment in the hotel, we had a great time and couldnt fault anything will stay again, and such a central location. Mary Amanda Lisa & Foxy Dundalk
Adequate Hotel for a nights stay; only major plus point is Hotels Location making access to toen area very easy.

Enjoyed my stay in the Kildford Arms hotel. The room was lovely, with loads of space and absolutely spotless. The staff were really friendly and very helpful. This hotel has a great buzz about it and great night life. I would definately recommend this hotel and i look forward to staying there again.
Very nice hotel and room was lovely but the bar staff were not very accommodating as we were told go the chipper it's across the road I ain't makin u a sandwich that was the only bad thing had to say about it
lovely stay.. great for a girls night away.
Really nice welcoming hotel. Staff so nice and helpful. We booked two twin rooms and they offered us a family room to sleep 6 and it was lovely and cosy. It had one double bed and four single beds and two portable TV's. It was clean with lots of hangers which makes a change. Small hairdryer on the wall and soap and shower gel dispensers. The bars were excellent. Great choice as to which one to drink in and a nightclub, didn't go to that so can't comment but entrance was free for guests. The breakfast was carvery with excellent helpful staff again. The hotel is just a stones throw away from a lovely shopping centre. In essence yep we will be back
Staff were terrific, very friendly and helpful. Room was nice and clean. Was a bit cool when we arrived but after we came back from dinner it was lovely and warm. No complaints. Would recommend as very good value. Would stay again without doubt.
Very nice hotel well presented staff food and and the entertainment were great,would stay again.
Stayed for a weekend with my Mam, cannot fault it, great value for money and the staff were very friendly and helpful.
Great location fairly lively on the weekend but good fun. Staff very friendly and helpful good breakfast. Excelent value for money. Dave Co.Dublin
Nice reception area and obviously a busy hotel which is a good sign. The room was ok but poorly ventilated. A large standalone fan was provided, but air con would be better. Plenty of milk for the tea and coffee. WELL DONE!! too many hotels are mean with the milk. Breakfast was nice and service was good. Corridors were a tad noisy at night, probably due to the location of the hotel in Kilkenny City, however there was no noise from the nightclub or pub downstairs or even the street. I would have given a higher rating but for the stuffy room and being woken up by other guests in the corridor. parking was off street and reasonably secure and location was ideal.
good points : Nice hotel, rooms clean, food decent. Good bar and very good service. bad points: they could do with updating the rooms, beds not of great quality. Overall fairly happy though
Very nice hotel with exceptionally friendly and helpful staff, especially at reception. The exception was the bouncer at the night club part of it who was extremely unreasonable and it took ages to convince him that my partner was staying with me (she was not noted on the booking form) to the point that he locked me on one side of the door and her on the other. The only black mark against very good accommodation.
I really enjoed my recent stay in the Kilford Arms.It is in a great location beside the bus and train station. The castle, shops, restaurants and bars are all within walking distance of the hotel. The room was spacious and warm and the staff were friendly and helpful. I will stay here again if I am in the area.
HI MY WIFE AND I STAYED IN THE KILFORD ARMS AT WEEK END HOTEL AND STAFF WERE VERY NICE AND AND HELPFULL AND VERY POLITE THE ROOMS ARE BIG AND SPOTLESS THE FOOD WAS BRILL ALL I CAN SAY WE ENJOYED OUR WEND

Kilford arms hotel is very central to all the great bars and shops of Kilkenny. Found the rooms basic with a stale smell( like it use to be a smoking room) Our check in was very efficient and staff were very pleasant. Our dinner was served by a very efficent polish guy and there was a great choice on their menus. We were also given a glass of wine with our dinner,complaints of the manager which was a nice touch. This hotel is great if your not looking to relax and sleep much but party and shop instead!!!! Car parking is free which is a added bonus and hotel is great value for money. I would return again.
we stayed mid-week and we cannot recomend the Kilford more highly. Its almost in the centre of Kilkenny, a few minutes from the train station, and offered excellent value. The staff were really friendly and the service excellent. They also have a great late night bar with an excellent beer garden (if you smoke like us). Having said that, I know a lot of their weekend business is of the stag/hen variety and we noticed a few of these ariving as we left. However I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Kilford for a short break in the Marble City, just it might get a little ott at the weekend.
I stayed in the Kilford Arms for 1 night B&B and 1 evening meal but i was very disappointed with the food and would not eat there again, the room was clean but with a very small window and there was parties and music on both sides of us until early in the morning. The only fault i had with the hotel is after 12pm you could not get back into the hotel through the main entrance and had to use the door for the pub, this door was closed and on a dark street and i had to bang on the door and keep buzzing the bell for over 15 mins, I was own my own coming back to the hotel and this was a little bit scarey. Great value for money and will defo be booking with Lidl breaks in the future but not this Hotel.
The hotel is located in the centre of the town which is great. The room we got was lovely, a suite with 4 single beds and 1 double bed which we were delighted with, to be altogether. It cost us 39e per person which also included breakfast. Great value for money and will defo be booking with Lidl breaks in the future.
Had a one night stay in the Kilford Arms in Kilkenny, everything was top class. Staff were very friendly, food was great and lovely warm, comfortable room. Have stayed here four times before and hope to stay again. Thanks Nancy
We stayed in the Kilford arms for 2 nights bed & breakfast recently and have to say we really enjoyed our stay. The Staff where very helpful and friendly and the breakfasts and lunch where lovely. The only thing we didnt really enjoy was the evening meal. However that said it wouldn't stop us staying there again. It is in a central location and the parking is free. The pubs and nightclub where great craic.
I booked 2 nights b&b plus 2 evening meals, was very disappointed with the meal and ate out the following night. This is my only complaint as I really enjoyed my stay in the Kilford Arms.The hotel is very central to the castle, shopping area and all the night life and is situated very close to the bus and train station.
We had a one night stopover in the Kilford Arms,Location excellent on one of the main streets with free parking behind the hotel,the Hotel has a few bars along with a Nightclub,the room was a little on the small side for a Double,looked lmore like a Single room,breakfast was fine,overall a good choice for a one/two night stay, the room a bit too cramped for a longer stay thou....
