Who we are as reviewers: Older, married couple who travel extensively in Europe and the US (over 60 plane trips, about 25 Bnbs in Ireland, and slept in about 150 different beds in past 3 years) - based in Ireland. Decades of professional experience in city planning, architecture, and construction; some limited hospitality experience in US resort community. Recent stay: Feb, 2025, one night. Overall: The superior rating of this bnb is accurate and richly deserved. Location: Excellent. About 4 -5 blocks north of Smithwick Brewery, which is on one end of downtown. Easy walk there by older couple. Nice selection of restaurants (pubs and better) within two or three blocks. Near two performance spaces and library. Local bus stop directly across street. Building easily found with nice sign hanging over front door. Check-in – self check-in. Security: Neighborhood – No issues visible to us. Urban setting on main, local street. Nice neighborhood; good building; lots of foot traffic (which is good for safety); and, mix of residential, office and commercial uses. Building – Renovated, urban townhouse with an interior courtyard. Well maintained and attractive. Front door visible from sidewalk; front door is very secure with a push button security lock. No issues. No dedicated outdoor space. Total of five guest rooms that are separated enough from each other that privacy is maintained. Room – Individual lock-boxes outside each room. Easy to operate. Door has interior lock. We were on the second floor so window locks not observed. No safe within room. No question about feeling safe. Parking – limited but enough on-site parking within courtyard behind building – felt safe and secure. Other uses within courtyard appear to be fairly high-end residential. Small public lot directly across the street and on-street parking. Room: Very nice. Good size for a couple with plenty of space to walk next to bed on both sides. Our room had three nice sized window

Celtic B&B has a great location in the centre of Kilkenny, yet it is very quiet at night. The free parking is a bonus. Our room was clean and we always appreciate a large bed. Breakfast was delicious. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

The rooms in this quaint house are very pretty- tasteful decor, warm, and welcoming. They aren't big but my single room was just right for me and my friend's double room worked for them as a couple. The bed was very comfortable and the setting was quiet. Coffee/tea pot tea/coffee was a nice touch. The owner was very responsive and check in is via door code so no need to meet up with them to get the key. Short walk into the center of town, so great location. Easy parking on site.
