4 Star Hotels in Gowran, County Kilkenny

"Staff firstly were very good and approachable. We enjoyed the food in the bar area - good portions for the price - quality good too. Bed and room comfort also very good. Gym and pool staff to very helpful."

"The staff here were all above and beyond amazing and so helpful. The person that checked me in Vanessa , I hope I remembered her name correctly, had some great recommendations and was so welcoming. I walked from the train station which was a little bit of a walk but it was so nice out that I didn’t mind it. Great location. "

"Warm and family friendly hotel. We are a couple in our early 60s breaking our journey to West Cork and enjoyed the pool, gym and atmosphere. Great place for visiting Mount Congrieve."

"We spent one night here on our way from Dublin to Kilkenny. The staff were prompt and very polite. The location is rural, but the facility is top notch. A grand staircase greets you as you enter the main lobby. As a group, we occupied three rooms. Our only issue was the lack of room air conditioning (but iist say the temps while we visited were the highest in almost 80 years). The rooms are equipped with an energy saving feature, you must place a room key in a wall mounted to activate any in room power or lighting. If your remove the key card to exit the room all lights and wall power turn off. This was not a problem once we figured out how it worked. We had two room keys, so if a person remained in the room, the spare key allowed them to watch television and have lighting."

"Lovely stay highly recommend "

"Excellent staff "

"Lovely, comfortable modern hotel, excellent food quality and friendly staff. Really enjoyed our stay."

"We had an amazing experience at the Newpark Hotel in Kilkenny! The hotel itself is beautiful and well-maintained, but what really sets it apart is how perfect it is for families. There’s Jurassic Newpark adventure park attached with a variety of animals to visit, which our kids absolutely loved. The playground and large inflatable were huge hits and gave us plenty of time to relax while the kids were entertained for hours. The hotel staff were warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere was relaxed yet elegant. Everything from the rooms to the dining areas felt family-friendly without sacrificing comfort or style. This is truly one of the best hotels we’ve stayed at in Ireland for traveling with children — a perfect mix of luxury and fun!"

"Friendly staff. Really good value. Spacious room. Fantastic breakfast buffet. Beds a bit soft for my preference. A few things overlooked in room cleaning. Bathroom was spotless. Access to a great leisure centre."
