Top hotels in Smithsland

The Hoban Hotel Killkenny
We were provided an early check-in and that’s 5 stars rate for me. The room is big enough and the bathroom is clean, though extra coffee pods would be perfect. Hotel staff are great and courteous.

Kilkenny Ormonde Hotel
Parking across the street was 8 Euros with the voucher. Hotels is within a short walking distance to the main sights. Ground floor was a lot fancier than the floor with our room.
