The Pembroke is a great hotel in the heart of Kilkenny. Free parking that is moderate walking distance away. Very large bathroom and shower. Nice bar/restaurant and the breakfast was delicious.
Hotel and staff were very nice. They have an issue with their tubs. They are too tall and do not have grab rails to get out and a high probability for falling
100% for The Pembroke!! The staff was fabulous, welcoming and accommodating for our needs. A two minute walk to the castle. Beautiful hotel, spotlessly clean, comfortable rooms.
Parking on site.
We can’t say enough. Hoping to return some day. Rachel was particularly helpful.
Rooms were small but clean and had everything required. Had double windows to reduce sound. We had a quiet stay. Food was OK. Lots of shops nearby. A parkade couple away, if you rented a car with reasonable rates. Right in the heart of Temple Bar area.
Located right in heart of lovely town of Kilkenny. Friendly and helpful staff. Spacious room with view of castle. Many eatery options nearby as well as in hotel.
