This is our go-to place to stay in Kilkenny. We've been here twice already and will be returning again next year. The staff is amazing and very very friendly - our little daughter loved interacting with the ladies at the reception and really enjoyed the Easter egg hunt they organized for her. The location is perfect, our room was spacious and quite cozy + the building has a significant historical and architectural value. The breakfast menu was very well structured - I'd definitely recommend the eggs Benedict! All in all - we'd recommend the place to anyone who's willing to get the most of their stay in Kilkenny!

As we arrives by car, we could park in a private parking lot. They offered coffee and tea in the room. It was very convenient to have dinner, one or two Guinness at the pub and breakfast the next day. A great stay.

The room was very spacious and clean. Breakfast and dinner were really good also. It is a very family oriented hotel and as such was really busy with families and children. It did not bother us as we were away for a friends catch up but it may be off putting for a romantic break away!!

Really great hotel for families. Staff are so helpful and kind with the children. Had a really lovely stay and the kids had a ball. Great that the hotel has a family room with amenities to sterilise bottles etc, really helpful when travelling with a baby. Lovely pool, great outdoor area for kids. Little things like free face painting and free cookies and milk at night for kids, and a live musician in the evenings outside the bar really add to the hotel as a family friendly destination.

Excellent hotel and facilities, brilliant for families as it has a pool and is the centre of town. there is lots to explore for families , and the hotel is just off the main street. the staff were amazing (especially Christine and Josephine) . The room was huge with bunk beds for the kids (room 102) I would highly recommend the Ormonde as a base for a family wanting to explore all Kilkenny has to offer.
