Where to stay in Kilkenny

Kilkenny City Centre
Kilkenny City Centre showcases Ireland's medieval heritage through narrow cobblestone lanes and historic landmarks. The impressive Kilkenny Castle overlooks the River Nore while St. Canice's Cathedral stands proudly against the skyline. Traditional pubs echo with fiddle music as locals share stories with visitors. Walk the Medieval Mile to discover craft workshops, independent boutiques, and the renowned Kilkenny Design Centre. Colourful Georgian buildings house cosy restaurants serving hearty Irish fare. The pedestrian-friendly streets make exploring this authentic slice of Irish history both convenient and enchanting.

Newpark
Newpark offers a peaceful retreat from Kilkenny's busier tourist centre. This quiet suburban area features Newpark Marsh nature reserve, where boardwalk trails wind through wetlands perfect for birdwatching. The area gives travellers a glimpse into authentic Irish suburban living with tree-lined streets. Family-run B&Bs provide warm Irish hospitality with home-cooked breakfasts. Nearby attractions include Nowlan Park and the Smithwick's Brewery Tour just minutes away. While dining options are limited locally, Kilkenny's historic centre is only a short drive for evening entertainment.
Deansground
Step back in time as you wander the medieval streets of Deansground, where honey-colored limestone buildings line ancient cobblestone pathways. Kilkenny Castle's impressive walls tower above, while St. Canice's Cathedral's Gothic spires pierce the skyline. This historic district offers an authentic slice of Ireland's medieval past. Traditional pubs serve hearty Irish stews alongside local Kilkenny beer in atmospheric settings. Artisan craft shops and boutiques showcase Celtic jewellery and pottery throughout the pedestrianised laneways. The River Nore provides scenic walking paths just steps from this charming historic core.

Just outside Kilkenny, Lyrath offers a peaceful countryside retreat where Georgian elegance meets Irish charm. The area centers around the prestigious Lyrath Estate Hotel, where peacocks roam manicured gardens and walking paths wind through ancient oak trees. Championship golf, spa treatments, and upscale dining create a refined atmosphere for visitors. The tranquil setting provides a perfect escape from city bustle while remaining just minutes from Kilkenny's medieval attractions. Travellers can explore The Hub and The National Reptile Zoo nearby. With limited public transit, a hire car offers the best way to experience this serene countryside enclave.

This quiet residential area showcases authentic Irish suburban life with tree-lined streets and well-kept family homes. The friendly locals create a welcoming atmosphere that feels genuinely Irish.
