Butler Court is delightful. Clean accomodations are a must for us, and we were not disappointed. Garden setting, comfy room, and just the right amount of attention from John (Yvonne was away during our visit). He is the perfect host as we like our privacy, but appreciated his availability and guidance. We liked the fresh scones, fruit, yogurt and other... more

I have returned to this B&B on numerous occassions in the last two years as every trip to Kilkenny has been excellent fun and hassle free when I stay at Butler Court. The train is nearby so each time I have travelled from Dublin I simply walk from the train station to the centrally located B&B. Butler court is a... more

We met Yvonne and Bob (the dog) after a harrowing drive from Dublin where the Garmin took us 20 miles out of our way, I lost most of the left side mirror from the rental car by side-swiping a parked SUV in downtown Kilkenny, we got directed to such narrow country roads that if we had met a car we... more

We stayed at this hotel for one night. The room was spotless, although a bit smaller (still great) than some other rooms we have stayed at in Ireland. The owners, John and Yvonne were two of the friendliest people we met in 9 days in Ireland. They provided a continental breadfast in the room that provided a variety and large... more

This really is a fabulous spot. From the moment you meet Yvonne and John (the incredibly knowledgeable and friendly on site owners) you know you made the correct choice. The rooms and bathrooms are spotless and the beds are very comfortable. The location couldn't be better and there is parking available too. The breakfast of fresh fruits, juices, coffee, tea,... more

Traveled in the beginning of July to Ireland and stayed at the Butler Court. Upon arriving a map was pulled out and I was given an understanding of the city layout, where the car could be parked, and recommendations on places to eat. Not only were the hosts great - the room was also very nice. I would highly recommend... more

Yvonne and her side kick Bob (the dog) were the best. Yvonne made sure that we had full history and knowledge of Kilkenny, and Bob was the welcoming committee. He made his morning rounds just to make sure everyone was doing fine. We will return, but this time for a week. The town and people of Kilkenny welcomed up with... more

This was our favorite accomodation in Ireland. Yvonne is helpful and friendly and has great suggestions on what to do/where to go. On her recommendation, we went to a local pub to see some live music and had our best night of the trip! I second all the positive things already said about Butler Court. Another big advantage for mobility-impaired... more

Just a few blocks up from the bus stop on main Patrick Street, this place is a real find. Very nicely furnished room, modern bathroom, in-room tea/coffee and fixings for a plentiful continental breakfast. Yvonne wastes no time orienting you to her town while marking a map with places of your interest which she manages to extract from you in... more
