Pedestrian access to the Postmasters House from the car park required crossing a busy street without a signaled crosswalk. In fairness to the establishment, the entire center of Kildare town could use a upgrade to make pedestrian safety more of a priority.

The Alice Room in Virginia Lodge is wonderful and we appreciated being on the ground floor. In addition the quality of food in the restaurant is outstanding. Location is perfect for a visit to the nearby Irish National Stud

Lovely place with a spacious room - the Lady Pamela Suite. Dinner in the lounge was delicious and plentiful. Host & staff were all very friendly. Only one criticism - the lighting in our suite was very dark - otherwise perfect 🤘

Welcome was warm and friendly. Had a lovely Irish meal at the pub before it closed on Sunday night. Beautiful room and new bathroom. Didn’t like the stairs for luggage. The room got warm and no fan worked. It did get noisy after misowith drunks and the traffic light noise.

Stopped here for the night on our way from Dublin to Killarney. Our room was modestly sized, but very well appointed and comfortable. Had a great dinner at the Silken Thomas restaurant at the hotel. Even though we didn't have recommendations, they asked if we'd like dinner, then they found us a table at 7:00 pm. Worked perfectly. The village is small, but cute, with some stores within walking distance to purchase essentials.
