Beautiful hotel cozily tucked into central Kilkenny, within easy walking distance of everything and just a stone's throw from Kilkenny Castle. These were the best rooms we had during our 7 day stay in Ireland, but this hotel was also the most impersonal. Great Irish breakfast buffet every morning. Good off-season rates. more

This hotel is in a good location but lets itself down with the service. On arrival there was no assistance in bringing in luggage in the pouring rain. Finding a car space can be problematic and there is also a 2 euro charge. My room was nicely furnished but the bathroom was cramped and tired looking, with paint peeling from... more

My partner and I stayed at Kilkenny River Court Hotel earlier this month and overall we were pleased with our experience, the room itself was nice and clean, spacious and well decorated, however the room they put us in happened to be right next to the service elevator. As a result of this we were woken up early in the... more

I organised a three day break for a group of eleven female friends and availed of the Golden Years package. It was a great success. The welcomes at reception were friendly and efficient and our rooms were all delightful, with views of Kilkenny Castle. The facilities and location of the hotel were very suitable for us as the city centre... more

These nicely appointed rooms were wonderful for a family use to staying at luxury hotels. They had several rooms with sleeping arrangements to accomodate families of five or more (twin beds and full beds). The rooms were comfortable, the en suite tea service and pant valet were nice perks, and you can't go wrong for the price. Best location in... more

We were there for five nights, including a weekend. On both Friday and Saturday there were Weddings which were VERY loud until about 2 in the morning. Management posted a notice about the potential for noise with the caveat that they would attempt to move you to a new room if you were bothered. However when asked, no rooms were... more

We had three days here with breakfast and dinner each day. We got a special deal for 'oldies' - It was good value and we enjoyed our stay. One of the receptionists could have been a bit more friendly but she was business-like. The dining room staff were great and our room was fine with a free upgrade to a... more

I loved most of my three-day stay in the River Court. It's a smart hotel, all the amenities, plus some nice extra touches, and a mostly-attentive staff. Its location is perfect if you want to explore the city - it's located in the center and you can walk anywhere else from the hotel. The only problems I had here were... more

Hotel was nice after they finally found my reservation after demanding my "voucher" from Expedia stating it was required for the stay. Expedia does not issue vouchers of course. This is an event hotel and there were people literally screaming in the bar area all night and drunken people returning to their rooms, very loudly talking and slamming doors. Numerous... more
