Great National Hotels hotels in Kilbeg, County Laois

"Gave a perfect 5*️⃣ because the hotel was amazing. If you are a woman be wary of walking into town after dark as I was catcalled by several drunk men. Not the hotel’s fault though and it was a 25-ish min walk away. "

"We had a wonderful stay. The hotel is tastefully decorated and well kept. Excellent food at the hotel’s restaurant, outstanding breakfast with plenty of options. Convenient car park, friendly staff. It doesn’t get much better than this"

"Room was clean,comfortable & warm and the hosts were very friendly and hospitable. Breakfast was really good. Really enjoyed our stay."

"Kinnitty Castle is a magical place to stay. The staff is warm and inviting, the rooms are spacious and comfortable and the common areas are lovely. The beds are HUGE and very comfortable; the "throne room" has the most amazing soaking tub and was a welcome amenity after a chilly, rainy hike. The hotel provides a brochure with history of the castle; each room is named for a historical person who is affiliated with the castle and there is a bio for each. There are hiking trails (including a fun fairy trail) around the beautiful, forested property as well as other fun activity options: whiskey tasting, archery, and I believe you can arrange for horse riding. The hotel is currently transitioning to new ownership and they are making strides to refresh the hotel; although there were a few very minor areas of concern (wear & tear, paint, etc), we did not feel like those areas were a negative, we felt like they enhanced the ambiance. We dined in the Dungeon bar both nights and the food was very good. It can be a little chilly down there, so bring a light sweater or wrap; again- it added to the ambiance. For breakfast, we dined in the main dining room which is very lovely and the food was delicious; we were even blessed by a beautiful rainbow! The staff, especially Aoife, was so excellent. Make sure you book a whiskey tasting with Connor and the lovely afternoon tea! We stayed two nights and it wasn't enough; we will return to the castle on our next visit to Ireland."

"Large hotel with good facilities. Comfortable, with welcoming, friendly staff. Good breakfast, with excellent omelette"

"Overall a good hotel. Room 220 needs a new desk fan it’s falling to bits "

"Suite was amazing although don’t think I’d stay in the normal rooms, my friends didn’t have AC rooms were okay. Suite was stunning!!"

"Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful home! Everything was absolutely beautiful and we are so happy to have chosen your place to stay! You are both wonderful and we enjoyed meeting you and hearing all about your place. We will be staying longer next time we visit. Thank you and we highly recommend your place!"

"Our hosts were incredibly helpful, friendly and from the moment we arrived more than happy to pass on information to places to visit in Ireland. The cottage was so welcoming and we loved every moment we had there. Any questions we had were always answered extremely quickly. It was a pleasure to stay in Greenville Cottage, thank you to Denise and Joseph and their three sons, you all aided in our visit to your home and your country ."
