Ideally set in Kilkenny, Butler House offers an à la carte breakfast and free WiFi. This guest house provides free private parking and a 24-hour front desk. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. Very clean, and comfortable. The best location. Unforgettable breakfast with a view to their royal gardens, and the staff is super kind and friendly. I loved this hotel.
