The host was great. The property was beautiful. The stay included many perks which we were not aware of when we booked. This farm is a must stay if in the area.

A very welcoming host greeted up on arrival and provided us with helpful information provided during our stay. The well appointed room was lovely - comfortable, bright and airy with nice views and plenty of space. Breakfast was delivered to the room in a hamper and was most adequate and nicely presented - there is a small dining table in the room. The whole place was sparkling clean. Private off street parking was perfect. Close to the castle and also a short drive to Lidle/Aldie and city centre. A great property to explore the surrounding area and towns from. Don't be enticed to go to Tipperary - as the host warned, there is nothing there.

Loved everything! Mary and Ger were fantastic hosts. Our room was big and roomy. It was spotlessly clean and the bathroom was great. The chocolate in our room was a nice treat with a cuppa. The separate tv room was great to have. Breakfast the next morning was delicious. The location is nice and quiet and although it was out of town it only took a few minutes to drive into the centre. There are only 3 rooms for rent so it's very nice. I would definitely stay with Mary and Ger again on a return visit.

It had the basics (coffee, tea) plus scones, milk and even more. Loved it and appreciate them offering these commodities. Other places don't include the basics and I'm avoiding to go to them. We can't be traveling equipped with salt, oil, coffee, etc everywhere we go.

    The room was very spacious and clean. Breakfast and dinner were really good also. It is a very family oriented hotel and as such was really busy with families and children. It did not bother us as we were away for a friends catch up but it may be off putting for a romantic break away!!

    Really great hotel for families. Staff are so helpful and kind with the children. Had a really lovely stay and the kids had a ball. Great that the hotel has a family room with amenities to sterilise bottles etc, really helpful when travelling with a baby. Lovely pool, great outdoor area for kids. Little things like free face painting and free cookies and milk at night for kids, and a live musician in the evenings outside the bar really add to the hotel as a family friendly destination.

    Child orientated hotel, decorated lovely for Christmas with a cosy atmosphere. The staff were all very friendly and lovely with children which was wonderful. Playground and farm onsite along with the family room was very useful especially with young kids.

    Excellent hotel and facilities, brilliant for families as it has a pool and is the centre of town. there is lots to explore for families , and the hotel is just off the main street. the staff were amazing (especially Christine and Josephine) . The room was huge with bunk beds for the kids (room 102) I would highly recommend the Ormonde as a base for a family wanting to explore all Kilkenny has to offer.
