Just back from a fantastic hen weekend! I have to say everyone in Rafter Dempseys were amazing! Looked after us all so well, very friendly & welcoming. Nothing was too much bother for them. Rooms are lovely with everything you need! Will definitely be back & would highly recommend!! Thanks again xxx

Very nice place for an overnight stay and probably also very fine for a longer period. The staff is nice, helpful (for example with menu choices) and always approachable. The rooms are fine, clean and everything works. The beds are good. The location is great, close to the center, to the castle and the cathedrals. The breakfast is delicious and you can have a good dinner there!

Loved the Steak on the Stone. It was delicious and great value for money. Beautiful pub in the heart of Kilkenny City. Excellent service from start to finish. Looking forward to our next visit. Thank you

My friend and I stayed here in June when she was home from NY, it was very nice, the staff were wonderful and breakfast was famtastic , I definitely recommend staying here. It's close proximity to the centre of town whilst still being quiet was a great advantage. The room was spotless and comfortable and the price was great.
