Butler House and gardens a a little bit of tranquility in Kilkenny. The house has easy access to the castle. The house now takes guests and has a lovely restaraunt. The gardens are well maintained and are a delight to walk around

Excellent visit. We were only one day in Kilkenny and Butler House was the perfect location, room, staff and ambiance. The spacious room overlooked the garden and castle and was very comfortable. The location was perfect to walking everywhere. The staff could not have been nicer. The breakfast was especially delicious. We highly recommend.

Lovely stay at the Butler House, the charming Dower House of Kilkenny Castle built in 1786. We stayed in the Langton Room which had a really nice view of the castle. Wonderful breakfast served every morning. Also enjoyed the Cream Tea experience in the afternoon seated outdoors where you can enjoy their lovely grounds. Great location - across from Kilkenny Castle and short stroll to local shops and restaurants. Pleasant staff, comfy beds, wonderful stay.

We arrived to find our room was in the basement where you couldn't see out of the windows. The room was very big and spacious. The tv was on the wall but we had to get reception to come and sort out the volume as it wouldn't come on. Also when in bed one of the posts of the bed blocked the view. We were not offered tea/coffee and sweet treat on arrival either. Breakfast on the first morning 11th July the porridge was not cooked enough so left most of it. The full Irish was nice. When we came to use the coffee machine the water compartment was extremely dirty with a slime residue, we took to reception and asked for it to be cleaned. Not what you expect. The towels in our Review Not what you expect. The towels in our bathroom were very shabby with them fraying as was the bath mat. Our last breakfast was not as expected we asked for just white toast but were given a stand with pastries and mixed toast. The scrambled eggs did not resemble eggs and tasted very bland. Unfortunately we will not return to this hotel in the future

This was our first night’s stay after flying into Dublin. We rented a car and drove to Kilkenny straight away. Butler House is perfectly situated to take in the sights of historic Kilkenny. The Castle is just through the gate. It was nice to have the elevator to heft our luggage up two floors. Breakfast was excellent! The garden was gorgeous for an early morning walk. Beautiful historic building!

Fabulous stay. Staff were fabulous, the room was super, breakfast was fantastic. The only comment I would say is that the pillows were far too high. I would have preferred slightly less full pilows. But that is only a minor comment. Overall, we had an absolutely fabulous stay. Thank you

What a lovely hotel and staff. Everyone very friendly and helpful. The food is delicious! Everywhere is close and an easy walk. The grounds of this hotel are spectacular and must be stunning in the summer when everything is in full bloom. Well worth a stay here if you visit beautiful Kilkenny.
