“Location and Quiet!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 November 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We drove into Kilkenny without having a place to stay, we attempted one B&B that would have been about 5 to 10mins. away from the City Centre and they stated they were booked so we continued driving thru the main street, John Street and ended up parking to try and find somewhere. We had a rental car so private parking was important to us to protect our asset. There was a small sign for Daly's B&B in baby blue with pink writing and said there was a private parking lot behind it, the entrance was directly on John Street. We were hesitant because it was a Saturday night and were afraid the noise might be too much, we walked down a private driveway, rang the bell and Mrs. Daly opened the door and said there was availability. We were showed the room immediately, the B&B is actually behind the main storefronts and therefore it was extremely quiet!! The room cost 30 Euro per person including breakfast, all rooms were en suite, the Wi-Fi was being fixed so there was no access but it was a relief to have our car safe and sound and be in walking distance of everything and just minutes away from our beds once we were exhausted. The car park actually gets locked at 9pm and you receive a key for the gate and then one for the door, and one for the room. It was safe, clean, big room, and an excellent location!!

Mrs. Daly was extremely accommodating and made the perfect traditional Irish breakfast. Would definitely stay here again.

“Basic room with free parking”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 March 2010

My boyfriend and I stayed at Daly's for one night during our road trip through Ireland. The plant-filled reception area is very welcoming. I read in our guidebook that B&Bs in Kilkenny tend to be more impersonal, like hotels, and Daly's is proof of that.

The room itself was small and nothing really stood out to me. It would have been nice to have a little more space, but we had everything we needed. Breakfast in the morning was tasty (only available in a very short 30 minute time frame) and we were allowed to keep our car parked in the lot even after we'd checked out.

“Positively vile”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 July 2009
2
people found this review helpful

I certainly would not recommend this establishment to anyone. The proprietor is extremely rude and unhelpful. She is gifted at making people feel uncomfortable. Overall, the place is dated, rooms are stuck in the 80s, even found a bed bug in my sheet. Please avoid this establishment, it resemble a dingy Brazilian love motel.

“A Basic B&B”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 April 2009

This modest B&B is in the heart of the shopping district, and a short walk to hopping pubs and restaurants. The room was comfortable, with a tiny TV. Furnishings were basic, but sufficient for our ease. The price was the best we obtained anywhere in Ireland.

I would recommend this B&B to a friend travelling on a budget, but not to my luxury loving pals.
