In the shadow of Kilkenny Castle, the Hibernian Hotel is in the heart of Kilkenny city. Originally the Hibernian Bank, this building overlooks the Parade, popular because it's close to Kilkenny Castle and the Kilkenny Design Centre. Food was so good I didn’t want to eat anywhere else!

The 4-star Kilkenny Ormonde Hotel is situated right in the heart of medieval city of Kilkenny. The property is only 2 minute's walk from main street, restaurants, shops and Kilkenny Castle.

The rooms have TVs and are all en-suite. Complimentary WiFi and 24-hour room service is available for all guests. A multi-storey car park is situated opposite the hotel, where guests receive a special discounted rate. Breakfast was excellent. The rooms were incredibly comfortable. Very rarely do I find hotel rooms quiet enough and at a good temperature to sleep. The beds were so cosy, quiet rooms considering city centre location and very spacious. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again. Definitely recommend
