“Disappointed.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 August 2011

people found this review helpful

Stayed at many B & B's on this vacation but this one was disappointing. Rooms needed a good updating.
Good location. Close to downtown Kilkenny.
Main floor area clean. Service & breakfast good.

Room Tip: Rooms are smaller than other rooms on our trip & very much in need of updating.

“Would Definitely Recommend to Friends”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 July 2011

The owners were very friendly and helpful. We had no issues checking in and the accomodations were adequate and clean. The only complaint we had was lack of internet access in our rooms. We had to go outside to get it.

Other than that breakfast was fantastic and we slept soundly in our rooms (we had a double bed!). Everything was very clean! Definitely would recommend to anyone we knew coming to Kilkenny.

“Yes, yes and yes again!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 May 2011

John and Angela are absolutely wonderful hosts. We found them by looking in the Lonely Planet guide to Ireland. It's true that their rooms are very clean. The location is quiet yet within walking distance to main shops. The rooms are small but well appointed and definitely worth the modest price. We will stay there again upon returning to Kilkenny!

“Top Draw Fantastic Place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2011

Celtic House is a beautiful B&B place where you can see the Kilkenny City Centre from the room and it is close to the centre including Kilkenny Castle.

The Byrnes welcomed us with open arms a lot of warmth. My father and I all enjoyed looking at Angela's wonderful paintings. I love the brush strokes Angela does.

Like us, the Byrnes also like to travel as they told us about their travels to San Diego for the St. Patricks Day parade and other places around the world.

The Byrnes are very conversational and we both like to talk about our lives.

We both enjoyed your homemade Irish breakfast.

I highly recommend Celtic House B&B (my stamp of approval, two thumbs up) when staying in Kilkenny.

Located a short walk from the city center with gated parking. Very warm hosts that are very well traveled themselves.
