Top Old Leighlin Hotel Reviews

The Club House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Our room was spotless and the bed super comfortable. We loved all the breakfast choices and tried several of the cooked options. All were great!"

Kilkenny House Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great pit stop on Motercycle journey"

Kilkea Castle

10/10 Excellent

"Kilkea Castle was amazing! Had such a fun time. I will hopefully be going back for another trip."

Lyrath Estate Hotel Spa & Convention Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay as always."

Hoban Hotel Kilkenny

10/10 Excellent

"We are one week into a three week vacation. The Hoban was our first night and is still the best so far. Room was large bed was a North American style king size, food was amazing, staff extremely helpful. Can’t say enough good things about this place."

Mount Wolseley Hotel, Golf and Spa Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Bedroom was a really good size. Good storage space with a safe and fridge. The bathroom had both a bath and separate shower. Really good choice of Gluten Free food available both for breakfast and evening meals."

Mount Juliet Estate, Autograph Collection

8/10 Good

"Our stay was towards the end of a 10 day road trip through Ireland and I was really looking forward to staying at Mount Juliet Estate. Website and booking sites show a huge old manor house but our accommodation ended up being in a Marriot on a golf course. I wouldn't consider it a 5 star hotel. The room was a good size, the bed was comfortable however the bathroom was shabby, dirty and the door didn't close properly. Breakfast was included and had a good selection."

Clanard Court

10/10 Excellent

"Great! All round good experience"

The Lodges at Kilkea Castle

10/10 Excellent

"Kilkea Castle was a wonderful stay. Last minute we booked a room in the Lodges; unfortunately, the actual Castle was all booked up. This didn’t lessen the experience though. The lodge room was clean, comfortable, well-appointed and had a fairway view. We were also able to use the facilities in the castle itself. We weren’t there to golf and that was just as well as the course was closed for maintenance. As a golfer the course did look like a premium course, and I’d love to go back for another stay and a round."
