The rest is History

A medieval city, with a modern vibe. A beautiful Georgian bank, that now houses a boutique 4-star hotel. 18th century corridors, that lead to luxurious 21st century bedrooms. A historic feel, surrounded by a contemporary style. International dishes, made with the finest local produce. Extravagant cocktails, served alongside traditional Afternoon Tea. A city-centre location, that provides an escape from the entire world. Ancient cobbled streets, that lead to the newest award-winning eateries. World-famous brands, next to artisan family businesses. An international team, providing that unique Irish welcome.

This is The Kilkenny Hibernian Hotel.

Whether it’s a classic, deluxe or suite you’re after, each of our 46 newly renovated bedrooms perfectly balances an authentic Georgian charm, with a modern boutique-chic feel. While these exceptionally beautiful and effortlessly comfortable rooms are housed either side of historic corridors, they’re filled with modern conveniences. For entertainment, there’s WiFi, access to our Press Reader app, coffee and tea making facilities and satellite TV, as standard. While for some well-deserved pampering, you can enjoy Paul Costelloe’s skincare range on us.

Whether it’s our award-winning dishes made from carefully-sourced, locally-supplied ingredients or our unforgettable cocktails made from the finest internationally renowned spirits, eating and drinking at the Kilkenny Hibernian Hotel is a treat for the senses and a reward for the soul.
