Ideally set in Kilkenny, Butler House offers an à la carte breakfast and free WiFi. This guest house provides free private parking and a 24-hour front desk. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. The hotel has private parking, the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, and check in was very smooth. We had three in our room; parents and one teenager. We were very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious and served at your table by very professional staff. The room was amazing with a spectacular view of the perfectly groomed garden and Kilkenny Castle. The location made it easy to see all of the main sites within the townsite and is close to many great pubs and restaurants. A river walk is minutes away and there are plenty of quality shops. Highly recommend fish and chips at Matt the Millar's, just down the hill.

We loved EVERYTHING about our stay in O’Sullivan cottage , great communication from Helen & Sam . The cottage was spotless & had such a welcoming vibe. Lovely surprises when we arrived with milk, orange juice & cold beers in the fridge. Plenty of towels in each room. The games room was such a bonus with the pool table , dart board & bar stools other games if you had a rainy day or wanted to chill with a few drinks for the evening. Only 45 mins from Dunmore East , fab Mountain View Market on Sunday . And the perfect pint in Andy’s bar only 5 mins walk from cottage ( FYI this is a cash only bar & no ATM in the village) The back garden with an abundance of wild flowers & fruit tress was a super evening sun trap to sit out in. Helen & Sam have Done this cottage such justice restoring all the original features. The welcome booklet tells you all you need to know. We are already looking at when we can book another stay. Thank you Helen & Sam for sharing your wonderful cottage with us 🙏❤️
