Lovely place but disappointed with the food! Waited a long time on both evenings and items I wanted weren’t available! Final night they had a group of men who were very loud and swore a lot. They talked about women and weren’t very complimentary about them either! Staff were lovely and we felt sorry for the young waiter who had to apologise a lot!
Mixed messages about a guide dog n training being allowed in the restaurant.
Upon arrival the outside of the main building looks good that's were it's stops the staff are 5 star in there welcome and doing there jobs no problem there
The room was very dated no plug sockets near the bed furniture very dated not in a good way
Bathroom absolutely disgusting paint peeling of the ceiling bathroom was some thing out the 70s not in a good way very poor condition
No WiFi in room at all again in this day is a standard thing
Carpets very dated needs new one or a very deep clean at least made me feel ill being in the room such low standard
I had a evening meal that was sent back twice as under cooked in parts meat was rough didn't even get correct meal at the same time
Beer was off tasted disgusting
I was up being sick all last night
The breakfast was so bad I sent it back
As over cooked how you can cook a breakfast wrong is a serious concern
The buildings are in such bad repair it doesn't match what you see on the website
Now I understand why the rooms are cheap
Even the staff agreed with what I said to them they were so kind and friendly
It's a shame at the hole venue could be made 5 star and above very easy the lack of money that hasn't been spent is shown
Should be a amazing place to stay at best it's 2/ 10 at moment
I could very easily renovate the venue to achieve 5 star and above
As we are working in local areas on several big developments
But I wouldn't put my team members in there as is
Beautifull buiding and welcoming staff. This hotel has had a chequered recent history but is well on its way to becoming a first class venue again. Excellent.

There were problems with the room and the food. General Manager has offered us discounted stay, upgrade of room and free breakfasts if we return.
Nice location, however bedroom and bathroom very very dated and standard of cleaning was poor. Signage inside and in the grounds was difficult to see. Money needs to be spent on refurbishment.

Having stayed at Kilhey Court many times in the past (a long time ago now) we thought that we knew what to expect. Reception/bar and our room were excellent. Unfortunately the spa has been closed and there are just a few signs of lack of investment (leaking roof on the stained glass atrium, tiles missing from the spa roof). If we had never stayed at the hotel during it’s hey day we may not have noticed these things but it is sad to see, and we hope that these small signs are not the beginning of the decline.

It was clear that cost savings were affecting the food service at breakfast. The standard was okay but would be so much better if the self service had been described better, for instance the breakfast clearly stated Black pudding with a full breakfast, but it wasn’t on display, you had to ask for it. Which is fine if you know to order before assembling your breakfast plate otherwise the black pudding arrives when you have nearly concluded your breakfast. A simple sign next to the plates would improve this!

The hotel although advertised as 4 Star was missing some things. Room had not been fully cleaned and dusted and overall the hotel needs some TLC.
Lovely space, very scenic and cosy. When we went restaurant seemed like it had just reopened and the staff seemed a bit lost as they were just trying to remember table numbers in their head. Would recommend going once it's fully up and running
The hotel bar was very busy due to the number of people staying at the hotel the weekend. The bar had run out of Brandy, vodka and Guiness.
The staff worked very hard and very polite and courteous although the hotel seemed to be short on staff.
