Stunning, clean smelling room that was immaculately prepared. The bed was very comfortable. Shower had plenty of hot water and power. Breakfast was delicious.

Hotel was in a perfect location. Staff were very friendly. Breakfast was worth the money with plenty of choice. Rooms were very clean and bed was very comfortable.
The only negative was the pillows were not so comfortable and there was no air conditioning in the room although there was a desk fan provided. Just glad we didn't stay in the heat wave.
If you are visiting Kilkenny I would recommend this hotel.

Great value hotel on the ring road round Kilkenny making it easy to find & although a little bit outside town centre & attractions access to the town centre very easy as long as you have a car. Large car park & a very good breakfast

I’ve stayed at the Dolmen a couple of times now, staff are really friendly, food in the restaurant is fantastic. Rooms are clean and tidy and well equipped. The only thing that lets it down ever so slightly in my opinion is that the bathrooms are starting to look a little tired but still perfectly functionable. All in all, I like staying here and will book a room here again.

Glandarragh Inn was a great introduction to Ireland as it's where I spent my first night
I would maybe recommend a bike shed to attract more motorcyclists as the car park has plenty of space
the wood fired pizza oven was very attractive and I ended up having a diavolo pizza alongside a guinness in the evening
Staff were friendly and helpful
it's a shame that early morning breakfast options were not available for those travelling long distances the next day but I understand that can often be the...
