This hotel was built within the past 6 years (I think), and is modern and very comfortable. The location is excellent, right in the heart of Kilkenny and is close to a wide variety of bars, restaurants, shopping, local attractions, etc.. The staff were friendly and helpful, my room was spacious, comfortable and clean, and the food was good. The... More

My friend and I stayed one night during our road trip through Ireland. The hotel is good, modern, clean, well located and with free parking for our rental car. The staff is very friendly, they provided with directions and allowed us to use the telephone to make reservations. The hotel is modern looking, might not be the best if you... More

My husband and I stayed in Pembroke Hotel for a short mid-week break. Staff were so friendly and welcoming. Rooms lovely and cleanliness faultless. Location is fantastic and on site parking is a bonus in a city centre. We look forward to returning on our next visit to Kilkenny, we couldnt have been happier with our choice.

The hotel itself is very pretty. Service was good. Our room was a bit small, but we had a corner room so that was probably why. The wireless did not work at all in our room which was disappointing. The location was good, as we were close to the center of town. Overall it was nice. Nothing to jump up... More

Great modern hotel right in the middle of things. Huge room with great bed. Loved that it had on site parking. Rare in Ireland and the service was excellent. Kilkenny was my favorite town so far in Ireland and I couldn't have been happier with this hotel.

This was my third time to stay at the Pembroke Hotel. Excellent service, beautiful dinner and lovely room. Fabulous location, especially the views of Kilkenny Castle. I have recommended the hotel to friends and I'm looking forward to going back again myself. There is so much to see around the hotel! The staff were so helpful and friendly.

I really like this hotel, fab location with free parking (only hotel in the city I think to do this!!). Staff are super friendly and the rooms are fantastic - a little bit more interesting than normal. Food is nice too and location is perfect.
