Parliament Inn

Ideally set in the heart of Kilkenny, Parliament Inn features a comfortable lounge with a television. The 16th-century Rothe House and Gardens, is adjacent to the inn, while the former 18th-century Smithwick's brewery is just across the street. The straightforward rooms contain from one to eight beds that are suitable for group or family stays. The shared bathrooms feature both showers and tubs. The reception desk offers baggage storage and can arrange recreational activities such as hiking, golfing, and fishing. There is a pub downstairs serving traditional Irish drinks. La Rivista, which offers an Irish-bistro style of dining, is about a minute's walk away. The Italian Connection, which serves delectable Italian dishes in a casual setting, is just a few steps from Parliament Inn. St. Mary's Cathedral and St. Canice’s Cathedral, both of which boast gothic revival architecture, can both be reached after a five-minute walk. Meanwhile, the property is just an eight-minute walk from Kilkenny Castle.
