"A fantastic hotel. Our only regret is we didn't stay longer. The room was very very good. The view of Cashel was amazing. Breakfast was excellent and the staff called us by name after one meeting. We would definitely love to return. And the Guinness in the Guinness Bar was the best!"

Cahir House Hotel

Cahir House Hotel

8/10 Good
"Hotel overall seemed a little “tired” but ok for the price. The typical Irish black mold in the shower and sink. UBER thin walls: heard conversation in neighboring room and snoring at 4am …) Comfy bed. Breakfast was awesome. Woman who served the food had very little personality, bummer. Receptionist checking in was great (no one at desk at 9 am for check out)."
