I loved everything about my stay. Andrew from the bar was great and loved joking around with us. Glen at the restaurant had us all laughing. The receptionist at check in was really accommodating and friendly. We enjoyed a day of golf, loved the scenery, the last day we were there some of the staff were setting up for a wedding and let us in to take a look.

Great location - middle of Athy, overlooking the square (or other side). Central and close to water (boat rides), train station (5min), all sightseeing. Staff super friendly and immediate communication, flexible with arrival time, responsive. Room exactly as in the picture (we had double two single beds) - very comfortable mattress, nice bedding, soft clean carpets. Very nice basic bathroom. Kettle and teas/ coffee/ water. Delicious breakfast next door included (loved it - great coffee, yummy Irish Breakfast, veg options). Highly recommend for all who want to be in the middle of action in Athy! And bar downstairs as well if you want to feel very Irish ☘️ . Loved it! Came for a wedding and stayed all next day just enjoying the town! Very friendly places. Highly recommend. Not luxury but exactly what we love and need when we travel with my son!

This apartment was in a safe area with free gated parking. Only 2 minutes walk away from the local shop and the host had left us local taxi numbers for us to get to Carlow and back. The host was amazing! Along with quick replies, he was extremely flexible with the check in time and allowed us to check in early as we were travelling a far distance. (August 2025)

    From the moment we checked in the staff were excellent. The added touches because it was a special occasion, were so so appreciated. Service was above and beyond. We will be back with our families next time.

    What an amazing place! We took some family members there on our tour of Ireland and they were blown away with Kilkea Castle. We marked all the hotels we stayed at '4 in a bed' style and Kilkea Castle came out on top! The breakfast was awesome. My wife left her boots in the room on our departure and they were return to our home in the UK the following week! I couldn't recommend Kilkea Castle highly enough.

    The staff were awesome. The greeter was dignified and had a presence befitting a castle. Very impressive! The grounds were great and nice for a walk. The breakfast was special with breath taking views from the second story. Once again the servers were awesome and accommodating, great fun! The rooms were just stunning, very large, huge bathroom. The bed was luxurious. The coffee makings were fabulous. The bar server was friendly and accommodating. Everything was unreal as this was our first stay on Castle grounds. I loved it!

    This castle is simply stunning. Every part of our stay was incredible. The breakfast was impeccable and the spa pools were well worth a visit. The bed was heavenly and the bathtub was large and luxurious. Even the grounds were fun to wander around and explore. Highly recommend this castle for a stay!
