Top St. Canice's Cathedral Hotel Reviews

The Club House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel staff members at reception and in the bar/restaurant could not have been more helpful throughout my stay. There was a slight issue with the plumbing in my room, and although it could not be fixed that night, the response of the evening reception staff member was prompt and they were genuinely willing to be of help. The hotel is in a great location and the restaurant food was lovely."

"Perfect location. Rooms were clean, unique and well decorated. The free onsite parking was great! Everyone loved the breakfast. Our room was right by the pub and the street so it was loud. The hotel staff did warn us ahead of time. So we had earplugs. All in all, we’d stay again!"

Hoban Hotel Kilkenny

8/10 Good

"Overall fine, however there is no air conditioning. I was told it’s a rarity in most Irish hotels - and even their homes. They did provide a fan on request. Bed somewhat hard for my curvy body. The included breakfast was great - full Irish breakfast if you want."
