โรงแรม 5 ดาว ในคิลเคนนี ไอร์แลนด์

My Mom and I stayed at Mount Juliet, in the Hunter's Yard, for three nights on a trip to celebrate her retirement and 65th birthday, which the hotel marked with a special treat. The room was clean, large and well appointed, with nice decor. The bed was really comfortable. The staff were helpful and friendly. The breakfast had the usual items and the restaurants had limited dinner menus, but the food we had was tasty. We enjoyed the movie theatre, spa treatments, and the grounds of the estate. There were other activities available as well, which we didn't book. There is a shuttle service between the two hotel locations on site. Not a walkable location as there is little outside the grounds, but it was easy to get a taxi to Kilkenny for sightseeing if you ask reception. Kilkenny has a few tourist activities, but is pretty small. We downloaded the Free Now app and it worked great to get a taxi from Kilkenny back to the hotel. Jerpoint Abbey is a nice little historic site just a short drive down the street. There is plenty to do if you are looking for a leisurely, relaxed break. It may not be your thing if you are looking for a hotel/area for lots of tourist sightseeing/activities. My Mom was disappointed there were no longer equestrian activities, and found the pool too cold. Otherwise, it was a perfect stay.

I struggle to put this hotel in the 5 star hotel category. Certain aspects fulfil 5 stars however other areas are seriously lacking. Food was fantastic and the staff in reception/bar/restaurant were super. Nothing was too much trouble and always on hand to tend your every need. The rooms are extremely basic, at most 3 star. Double beds seems rather sub-standard for a 5 star hotel. No 5 star touches in the rooms. The spa was disappointing. Very basic facilities for a thermal suite. Relaxation room was so far from relaxing, people talking loudly and areas not cleaned from previous visitors. Post visit survey was answered honestly to which we received an email apologising that they fell short of the 5 star service they aim for.
