I didn’t get a chance to meet Noeleen, but she guided my arrival with friendliness and flexibility. My other host, John, was there every day. I got to have many good yaks with this hard working and kind host. I had a warm bed, a hot shower, great music, great craic, and awesome patrons! Upstairs above an Irish Pub with the best music in town. Right in the heart of Kilkenny. The mornings brought the sounds of life and commerce. The evenings brought the sounds of fun and celebration. Crickets it’s not. Warm and welcoming it is. I loved my stay at the Pump house Pub. I’m looking forward to my return to my friends there, and highly recommend travelers to stay a while at a truly Irish inn.
