Pembroke Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Friendly staff, incredibly convenient location to the Kilkenny Castle, restaurant was good. Only thing my wife and I disliked was the bathroom door having those frosted panels that let light through so if anyone used the bathroom in the middle of the night it lit the whole room up."
