Top St. Canice's Cathedral Hotel Reviews

The Club House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was exceptional - very friendly and welcoming. Helpful in making suggestions for a more comfortable stay, recommendations on local sites, and ensuring we had everything we needed. Communication was proactive - loved the room we had. Breakfast meal was very well prepared and tasted wonderful. Parking was a little challenging to find (even with their proactive directions) but was very good once we got there."

Kilkenny Ormonde Hotel

8/10 Good

"Well worth the stay for the $200 we paid for one night. Room was spacious and had a Queen, two Twins, and a bunk bed in a side alcove. I’m told it goes for far more, but we enjoyed the night. The pool and gym are good, but they required you to purchase a $5 swim cap if you don’t have one. We’ll be back if we can book a longer stay at a similar price. Enjoy. 3.5 stars out of 5!"

"Nice room, friendly staff and good food."

"Beautiful hotel with very, very clean rooms and comfortable beds. We had their most basic room for our 1 night stay and it was perfectly cosy and opulent. I loved the bath with bath salt, the bvlgari soap, and the pool was great as well. Breakfast was buffet and order from the table. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to return one day!"
