Independent hotels in Rathdowney, County Laois

"This place was great! I would highly recommend it. Just be aware, as of most of Ireland, no central air during the summer, but other than that it was perfect. So close to Kilkenny. I would stay again. :)"

"Great staff!"

"This place was great! Huge rooms, high end bar and restaurants prem, and very responsive staff. Drawbacks: 3 flights up for some rooms if you’re in need of accessibility, and the bar didn’t have a corkscrew for a wine bottle we wanted to enjoy before dinner. But no prob, they located it after about 15-20 min and we had a great night!"

"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."

"Fantastic service. Very friendly and helpful. Great location, too. "

"Lyrath was a gem! Beautiful inside and out, the staff was very accommodating. The grounds were beautiful and our room was more than spacious and comfortable. Would definitely return and plan some “downtime” just to enjoy the hotel’s amenities!"

"Lovely stay highly recommend "

"This was quite an experience. I will recommend it to all my friends. "

"The location is fantastic. Very close to all the bars and nightlife but not in the noise of it. Staff were very helpful and accommodating. Breakfast was huge, (could have included beans though).. Only downside was the shower curtain. It just stuck to you when using the shower making it uncomfortable. "
