Loved the location. Close to shops and liked that JB’s bar was about 40 feet away from room entrance, which was appreciated after a long day of traveling.

We liked everything! The location which at first may seem quite awkward in a small alley… but the place was soooo great and the room sooo clean and large and nice. The pub right in front and all the commodities on foot ! You have the noise of the street but not late in the evening.

    Glendine Inn felt like a real authentic Kilkenny stay. From the locals in the pub, to the Hurling championship memorabilia, to the staff and service - everything was excellent! Public transport is available however I chose to walk everywhere as it’s a small city with plenty of beauty to see. Highly recommend this accomodation and Kilkenny!
