All units in the guest house are equipped with a flat-screen TV. Rooms are complete with a private bathroom fitted with a hair dryer, while some rooms are equipped with a seating area. Guest rooms have a desk. I payed so little for it that I thought it would be a bit nasty, but I was positively surprised, it surpassed most of the other accommodations during my trip. Including some more expensive hotels. The room was really cozy. I liked the solid classical furniture and traditional hotel atmosphere which in my book beats the hotels with modern furniture that often ends up looking like hostels. The location was also great! Next to the Railway Station which is both great for train travelers and people who travel by car and can use the stations parking lot which was right next to the hotel. If I come to Kilkenny again I will pick this hotel again!

Seanie's guest house, a property with a bar, is situated in Tullaroan, 15 km from Kilkenny Castle, 31 km from Mount Juliet Golf Club, as well as 47 km from Carrigleade Golf Course. It is located 14 km from Kilkenny Railway Station and provides luggage storage space. The guest house features family rooms. The rooms are small and the bathroom is down the hall and if the water isn’t hot try the other bathroom, but… what a fantastic night we had!! Our first night in Ireland and we had an amazing time. We sat outside and drank with the locals, moved inside as it got later and colder, people started singing and we ended up going to bed at 2am. Very warm and welcoming locals.
