Hotels with Bar in Kilkenny City Centre from $158

"Loved the Kilkenny Hibernian Hotel! Great location! So easy to get there from the JJ Kavanaugh bus stop. Well-located in town to see the castle and walk by the river. Friendly service in every encounter. T he hotel was charming. Room was exactly as pictured. The only thing was that it was unseasonably warm in Kilkenny during our stay & our non- air conditioned room was on the top floor. You could feel the heat rise as we approached our room. The room was equipped with both a ceiling and a desk fan, so that helped. We loved having live music at the bar in the hotel. It was so easy. It had the local feel that we were looking for. Clean and comfortable. We would stay here again for certain. "

"We enjoyed the charm of the property. It was easy to navigate the city from the location. Our breakfasts were great, as well! Highly recommended! "

"This hotel was pretty much booked up when we got there to check in. The room they gave us was not what I had reserved and when we went back down to the front desk they very happily fixed the issue by up grading us to a bigger better room. It was quiet and clean. The beds were very comfortable and the hotel nicely located to make the city very walkable. "

"This Hotel is older and it just has a wonderfully comfortable feel to it. It was beautiful, our room was spacious, we had a wonderful stay. Loved it!"

"nice breakfast"

"We stayed at Rafter's for our first night in Ireland, and it was a great start to the trip. The location was perfect, only about a five minute walk to Kilkenny Castle. Gerry was an awesome host, he made us feel so welcome and even invited my mother-in-law behind the bar to make an Irish coffee to compete with his. After dinner, we had a drink at the pub and there was live music; it only played until 9:30, so it didn't keep us from sleeping! The breakfast was included and there were many options, all amazing and made fresh. Would recommend to anyone looking for a more authentic Kilkenny experience."
