Lyrath Estate Hotel and Spa  

Lovely hotel. Great breakfasts. Amazing pillows!

Changing rooms for pool small. Difficult to do lengths etc in pool because its not set up for swimming really. Hotel bar not great.

Friendliness and professionalism of staff

Price too expensive

Food ws good, Staff were very professional, rooms were clean , spacious anwd well equipped.

Wi fi not available in rooms ( No signal). Nicest rooms in the house were not being used. Would like to see roaring fires in old part of house with this space more integrated into the bar etc. No nice place outside these rooms to relax and read the paper of an afternoon. Pool and Gym was poor for a hotel of this standard. Booking got mixed up and I had to log on to retrieve my original booking.

Nice location, beds were comfortable, good choice at breakfast

The hotel was not as luxurious or fancy as I thought it would be - too expensive. Rooms were disappointing. We had to queue for quite a while for breakfast but when we were shown to our table noted that the dining room was probably half empty but not enough staff to clear the tables hence the delay. An excuse of "the hotel was full last night" is not acceptable.

Easy convenience for sightseeing in Kilkenny.

The confort, the rooms, the staff, the location, the walks, it was very enjoyable.

The only complaint I would have is the price of eating in the hotel. The restaurants, and even eating off the pub menu, was very expensive.

Stayed at hotel for 2 nights with my husband and 2 sons aged 21 and 18. Very relaxing stay - had meal at bar and reasonable price. Bedrooms were comfortable and my 18 year old loved the bar upstairs at night with live music. Hotel also had free internet which was useful. At night there was chocolates left in our beds and also bottles of water. We also had a free newspaper left outside our rooms in the morning. Attention to detail was the utmost - even a helicopter!!

Only minor detail were the beds were a little firm but we still had a good nights sleep.

Staff very friendly and hotel very clean.

Restaurant only allowed children untill 18.30-which is a little early and food in bar was only ok for such a wonderful hotel.

The Lyrath Estate Hotel was just beautiful, and the staff had the perfect balance of professionalism and warmth. They were incredibly helpful and so friendly... They made our experience just wonderful

There is two bars in the Lyrath. It was a rugby weekend, and we wanted to watch the match whilst having our evening meal. However we could not get food in the bar that had a television.... The bar that served food did not have a television.

This was my third trip back to Lyrath and I cant recommend it enough. Definately my favourite hotel in Ireland!

We really enjoyed a wonderful evening in the Lyrath with good company. The breakfast was absolutly excellent and I really enjoyed the visit even though it was just the one night.

The staff were excellent, and could not do anymore to make us feel welcome.
