We stayed for a night, the building is beautiful and well maintained. The bar was friendly with live music which we enjoyed and the breakfast was delicious. The only issue we could raise was that having taken the lift to the second floor there were more steps to reach our room. Fine for us but potentially an issue for some. Also they need bigger towels in the rooms!
Route from the lift to our room.

The hotel location was perfect, a great for exploring the city on foot. Service at the hotel was great and the quality of the breakfast was amazing. Our room was clean and spacious, however, the bed was not very comfortable.

Beautiful place, amazing location around the corner from the castle and pubs. Do yourself a favour and go to Kyteler’s Inn (est 1324) for a pint and some trad music.

Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. It was great to have a bar with live music too! The room was a bit dated. It was a little odd that when we walked in we had to go down about 4 steps to get to the bed and seating area. No AC and the window barely opened for air.
