Sure it was grand!
Have been a few times and have always enjoyed the location and staff and the rooms are grand. I was a bit disappointed this time as there was works going on in one of the rooms beside me and they started before 9am… when I rang to ask them to stop so early, they advised that they would wait till after 9am… how is someone meant to enjoy a relaxing morning in a hotel when there is that type of noise going on? A heads up would have been nice and maybe drilling sound be after checkout!

4 star ????
Stayed for two nights in a twin room. The Pembroke is rated as a 4 star hotel but came across as very average. The beds and in particular the pillows were very uncomfortable and as such experienced little no sleep. While the hotel staff were helpful in providing additional pillows it didn't provide any additional comfort.
Bathroom was mostly clean however if you struggle any mobility issues you may have difficulty getting in and out of the bath/shower as the bath height is very high.
Had breakfast both mornings of the stay. Ok choice for breakfast options. Unfortunately any hot food/drink was lukewarm at best.
If you are looking for a decent night's sleep and breakfast then this is not hotel for you.

Fun spot in the center of town
Close to all that Kilkenny has to offer with a very friendly staff.
The bar manager and his crew were exceptional.
Definitely will recommend the Pembroke to our friends back home.

The Pembroke Hotel is in an excellent location and staff was very accommodating. The room was lovely and we had a great view of the castle which was around the block. I have celiac and need Gluten free food and they took great care of me! I will definitely stay there again.
