We loved our stay at Eamonn's! It was right in the city, so we could easily walk to everything in Kilkenny (pubs, shops, Kilkenny castle, etc). It was all close by. Eamonn was super nice when we arrived and greeted us in the pub below, then got us settled in the room and answered all our questions. Parking was very close by (just around the corner) and was 2 euros a day, but Eamonn can give you tips to save a few if your timing is right. The pub wasn't as noisy beneath us as we thought it would be, and we liked being able to hear (not too loudly) the live music that played there Thursday night while we were there. Ask Eamonn for food recommendations because he gave us great ones! Also, other reviews weren't kidding about the water pressure in the shower. It was awesome. Would love to stay here again!
