This is quite possibly one of the loveliest places we have ever stayed in all of our travels. It is beautiful space—well decorated and spotless—and our room was spacious and comfortable. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the breakfasts are delicious and generous. We would be delighted if we could return and stay again.

The property was absolutely beautiful. Right in the heart of everything. The room was large the shower had piping hot water and the bed was super comfy. We were thrilled that bachelorette/bachelor parties were not allowed. We slept really well.

Staying a Seanie’s was perfect, staff were gracious, accommodating and friendly! The rooms were so clean and very updated! We loved being able to go down stairs to the pub after a long day of sight seeing in Kilkenny and not having to worry about driving or walking far to get back to our room. Great place to stay if staying in Kilkenny is not an option, only a short 10 minute drive.

The owner was the coolest guy! He was so kind to my little daughter, was eager to help us get comfortable and have a positive experience, and he was such a joy to talk to! Our room was cozy and cheerful, while the location was absolutely beautiful. The dinner we had in the evening and our breakfast in the morning were delicious and made to a very high quality. Even the gift shop was curated with good books and happy finds. Our family likes to travel and we have stayed in quite a few different places; this is our new favorite.

    A few steps away from the city center, parking included just behind the structure. The guesthouse is finely furnished and the host provides some complementarities, which is always appreciated. The bed was very comfy!

    The rooms in this quaint house are very pretty- tasteful decor, warm, and welcoming. They aren't big but my single room was just right for me and my friend's double room worked for them as a couple. The bed was very comfortable and the setting was quiet. Coffee/tea pot tea/coffee was a nice touch. The owner was very responsive and check in is via door code so no need to meet up with them to get the key. Short walk into the center of town, so great location. Easy parking on site.
