“This four-star Kilkenny address stands out with its bespoke décor and varied dining, although some past guests cite inconsistent service levels; the pool and modern gym are definite assets.

Acceptable But With Issues
loud music corridor shouting
The Roswell Bar had good food choices.
The rooms need an upgrade but this wasn't the biggest issue. The hotel was noisy as a function took place. I could not sleep well due to the loud music and people shouting in the corridor as they left.
