Location, breakfast was delicious. Host made us breakfast sandwiches for our morning train ride

The room was small, shower tiny and dripped all night. Sky light was only window and was opened( had to ask to have it closed) toilet ran forever when flushed. Felt like this was not an original B&Bbroom( had private sign on door ( no others did)

This was our first experience with a bed and breakfast and it was a very pleasant experience. The gentleman on site was so nice and the breakfast was wonderful. Such a nice setup and the food was great. Our room was very clean and nice with plenty of extras such as in room coffee/tea. The location was a bit far from the town center but the grounds itself was very pretty. Overall, it was a great experience and I'd absolutely stay at this property again!

My only complaint is simply that it's not as conveniently located around the town center as I'd like, which is no fault of the staff/owners. However, taxi services were easy and quick so it wasn't a deal breaker and I knew going in that it wouldn't be right in the town center.

David runs a top-notch establishment! We found him to be very outgoing, efficient and full of good local information. Launard House is a decent walk (10-15 minutes) from downtown Kilkenny; we took his advice and had dinner at Kyteler's Inn Excellent food and service and very steeped in tradition! David serves an excellent breakfast, asking guests to jot down their requests the night before so he can prepare them accordingly. There is ample on-site parking, excellent WiFi and location is easily accessed by local roads.

Absolutely nothing!

The owner was wonderful! So very lovely to chat with. Dave obviously loves what he does and took extra good care of us. Upon hearing that one of our party had allergies, he and his wife bought special ingredients, and the breakfast was delicious! He was great at answering questions and giving recommendations. Amazing B&B for a really lovely Irish town.

Loved everything!

The room as very clean and bonus that the beds had top sheets and there were washcloths in the bathroom. We had 3 people sharing but it didn't feel crowded. Beds were comfortable - loved the old fashioned room keys. The breakfast was delicious and David was very organized and friendly!

Wish it was a little closer to town but we enjoyed the walk back after dinner.

breakfast was lovely and on time. Room was cosy and bathroom warm and spotless. Host very friendly and available when needed to answer any questions.

Would have been nice to have a cereal offering too at breakfast and a jug of water. Our room was above the kitchen and we found all the cooking smells travelled up there which wasnt great.

The owner David was very accommodating & helpful. Rooms are sufficient for a couple nights stay just outside of central Kilkenny. We liked the quiet location with a short walk to all the restaurants & historical sites. Breakfast was good & served on time. We also enjoyed interacting with other guests in the friendly breakfast room.

We were more than happy with our accommodation at Launard House. The host was very attentive to our needs and breakfast was excellent every morning of our stay. Breakfast Room was warm, and very nicely furnished. A great gathering place for guests. Our bedroom was very spacious, clean and quiet. With solar water heating system, we were more than willing to spend less time in the shower - so on top of everything else, it's environmentally friendly. Thanks for adding to our great time in Kilkenny .

Room a little bit cold in the morning. Would like to have had the heating on for a short time just so it wasn't such a shock to the system when crawling out of the warm bed.

We stayed only one night in this welcoming quiet B&B within walking distance to the city center. Kind hosts and cute little dog. Good breakfast in the morning. Comfortable beds and warm shower. We would definitely come back.

The toilet and sink were on the small side especially since we were four people to share.
