The B&B was clean and friendly. It was a little farther out of town than we expected. We felt like we didn't get our value for the $. We stayed at some nicer hotel/B&B around the country for less. Maybe Saturday night in Kilkenny is an expensive option.

The owner is cheerful and helpful, the place very quiet and the room very nice. Only that you have to walk 7 min to centre town, but I would repeat.

Terence, the owner of this B&B, is what makes this place! When I walked in the door he took one look at me (and the big pack on my back) and said, "that looks heavy- why don't you go drop that off in your room before we start?" - such a small thing, but very appreciated. And it only got... More

I stayed with Terence as i was shooting a wedding in Kilkenny. Terence is a delightful man who can't do enough to help you. You feel as if you are staying in a home rather than a B & B, very welcoming and i would definitely stay there again. Lovely breakfast too :-) Jayne King

Stayed here for 3 nights in June. Terence was a great host, very friendly and informative - gave some great recommendations for pubs & restaurants. He also cooked a great Irish breakfast! Bedroom was nice, clean, functional and no problems to report. Only 10 mins walk from centre of Kilkenny. Would definitely stay here again.

Only stayed here for one night but loved this B&B. The rooms were clean and nice, if a bit cold (but it was the middle of winter). Found the owner VERY nice and did everything he could to make our stay more comfortable and enjoyable. Breakfast was yummy and service was great. Would recommend to everyone and anyone staying in...

Syaed here with a group of seven young people altogether. The hosts couldn't have been nicer. Very welcoming, helpful and it felt like we had the place to ourselves! Breakfast was yummy and served up with a smile. Makes all the difference. The rooms were nice and well equipped. Very clean!

The rooms were only ok, but the owner of this place was an incredibly nice gentlemen that seemed really intent on the guest's comfort. A hearty breakfast in the morning and some good conversation made for a nice stay at the Killarney house. I would definitely return.
