We had a wonderful stay at River Court Kilkenny Hotel. Our suite had a balcony overlooking Kilkenny Castle, and the view was absolutely breathtaking. We spent so much time just relaxing and enjoying the scenery because the room was so comfortable.

If you’re planning a getaway in Kilkenny, I highly recommend staying here.
