I was visiting cousins in the Kilkenny area when I booked my two night stay at the Butler Court. I was very pleased with the room, bathroom and whole setting of this well maintained establishment. The owners were very pleasant and I had a very satisfied stay at this secure, quiet and very clean residence. I stayed there on 14... More

Very nice establishment! The price was good, the owners were very friendly and helpful, location was great (everything was within walking distance), and clean, spacious rooms. The owners provided us with continental breakfast in our mini fridge, which had quite a variety of options. It was nice to be able to make coffee in the morning that wasn't the instant... More

Wonderful place to stay. Yvonne & John Dalton were very helpful and welcoming! Bob the dog was a pleasure. Sitting in the lovely courtyard was so relaxing. Easy walk from here to any of the attractions to see in town. It was great to have the parkade to put our car in during our stay. Although the breakfast was continental... More

We arrived without any booking; the owner showed us around and gave us our room. Rooms are spacious and comfy, and bathrooms are clean. Free wifi was also available. The owner even paid for parking! The B&B does not provide a cooked breakfast, however the continental breakfast is fresh and filling and more than enough. The location is excellent; 2... More

I booked a room on short notice - communication from the owner was prompt and extremely friendly. I really like the fact that the breakfast is waiting in the room - it means you can have it anytime you want before checkout instead of having to wash up really early to make the breakfast cut off time and have to...

I only stayed at the Butler Court 1 night on my way from Dublin to Dingle, but wished I could have stayed even longer to explore. The Butler Court , reminded me of a motor inn rather than a traditional B & B. This is in no way to be taken as a slight! You enter through a gated archway... More

Yvonne is the king pin in this business. From the first time I walked in the door I saw her smile and knew immediately that her hame was Yvonne. She helped us sort out our trip to the Rock of Cashel by suggesting and ordering a car.The facilities of Butler Court are very well appointed and very well kept. The... More

This was a great place. Yvonne was in the hospitality industry and knows her stuff. The continental breakfast is adequate to get you going in the morning and was great with giving us places we had to see in the very picturesque town of Kilkenny. Rooms were very clean and unbeliveably convenient to everything the town has to offer. Price... More

this is a basic hotel/motel and very well placed in the center of Kilkenny. The rooms are modern and spotless and Yvonne and John are good hosts. A continental breakfast is provided in the rooms. The only drawback to us--as we were traveling with two other couples--was that there was no lobby so we could sit and talk. But don't... More

This B&B is located right in the middle of Kilkenny within walking distance of all the most interesting sites. The rooms were immaculate and our hosts were personable and helpful. My only criticism is that breakfast is pre-packged scones, instant coffee, boxes of cereal served on a tray pre-assembled in each room. There was also fresh fruit and a refrigerator... More
