We had a brilliant time at a Hen Party in the Hoban Hotel. We were so well looked after by the brilliant staff - with nothing being a problem! Between being served a glass of bubbles on arrival to being served a lovely breakfast, it was all seamless and very enjoyable! A special mention to Johnny who was so kind and gave us an excellent Cocktail making class! He was super friendly and was on hand the next morning to greet us for breakfast! An excellent location with superb staff!

Every aspect of the hotel was exceptional. Check in was a breeze, our room was immaculate throughout, the restaurant was a high point. Breakfast was hot and fresh, dinner menu was varied and prepared well, service was always prompt. When we return to Kilkenny, we will be guests of the Hoban again.

Everything was perfect, from the room to the staff, and particularly Dez, who made sure I had everything I needed for dinner and breakfast. The room was great, quiet and had everything to have the greatest rest. The restaurant’s menu is diverse, everyone can have something they like. The hotel is not in the city center, which means you’ll need a car or to walk if you want to visit but nothing impossible.

I have just returned from a girlie overnight stay at The Hoban Hotel. The staff were so friendly, couldn't have been more helpful. The rooms were lovely, spacious and and clean, with a coffee machine in each room, a first for me. And the floor we were on was lovely and quiet. Breakfast was self service. Plenty to choose from and all the hot food was exactly that, lovely and hot. One of the highlights for me, as an owner of an EV was charging points available at the hotel. Again I haven't had that experience before. Makes life so much easier charging there overnight, or just topping up. If I am in Kilkenny again, I would definitely stay here, and I recommend you check it out if you're heading to that area.
