We have stayed in Butler Court 3 times and have never been disappointed. Yvonne and John run the place extremely well and have terrific staff. The room we have stayed in has always been clean, quiet and comfortable and is well stocked each day with a nice variety of breakfast food. The proximity to everything in the heart of Kilkenny...

We stayed for 2 nights and would have stayed longer if we had more time. Yvonne welcomed us and had great advice on where to hear great local music, where to have a pint on the deck before the sun went down and where to eat. Our luggage had not made it to Ireland and John looked after it when... More

Butler Court is a sweet oasis! John and Yvonne are delightful hosts, and their attention to detail in the accommodations is obvious. We particularly liked the do-it-yourself breakfast set up in the room - a nice change from cooked breakfasts on a three week trip.

This is a great place to stay if you want something centrally located, clean, comfy and reasonably priced. If you have a car, the hotel validates for parking which is a plus. The parking garage is about a two-three block walk from the hotel. We opted to park first as we only had one bag each and since there wasn’t... More

As we pulled up, Yvonne was there to greet us, help us with logistics of luggage, car park, and operation of courtyard gate and room keys. This was so appreciated after a difficult day on Irish roads with a balky navigation system. Butler Court is an easy walk away from the Castle, Design Center, and the main street of Kilkenney....

My husband and I really enjoyed our two night stay at the Butler Court. After a bit of a difficult time finding the place I walked in and felt like I was walking into a friends B&B. Yvonne and John were some of the friendliest people I've ever met and Bob the dog was a welcome sight for two people... More

Loving it, writing whilst lying in a fabulous bed in an immaculate room. Could not recommend it more highly. We had no idea where we would stay but liked the appearance from the street. John welcomed us and could not have been more helpful.

This was probably the nicest B&B we stayed at in our 2 weeks. The room was large and the bed very comfortable. The bathroom was large as well, plenty of room for all our things. Breakfast was in our room already when we got there which made for a nice, quiet morning. Yvonne and John were great hosts, very welcoming... More

Recommended from a family we met that morning, we easily found Butler Court right on the main street in Kilkenny. A perfect location for exploring Kilkenny and among the friendliest host/hostess we had on our 10 days in Ireland. My only complaint is that you miss out on the hot breakfast, but the room is stocked with a hearty continental... More
