Everything positive I read about this place was totally true. It is in an absolutely perfect spot, so convenient, and the free parking is just 5 mins around the corner. Once in the alleyway via the gated entry, you could be anywhere, but you are right outside the rooms in a sunlit tranquil space. Ours where the first two rooms... More

I enjoyed my stay at the the Butler Court. The continental breakfast provided many choices. It was nice to eat while getting ready in the morning instead of having to be in a breakfast room by a certain time. Guests must park in a public lot; however, the proprietor will validate the ticket. It is close (walking distance) to all... More

Butler Court was a great room in a great location! Yvonne and Bob (the dog) greeted us warmly and made us feel welcome. Yvonne's recommendations for dining options, sight-seeing options, etc., were very helpful. Our room was spotless and comfortable, and the continental breakfast in the room was perfect -- lots of delicious fresh fruit, coffee, tea, cereal, scones, and... More

This B&B was pretty close to all the fun stuff in Kilkenny. As soon as we arrived we were greeted by the friendly and lovable house dog Bob, and Ivonne gave such a warm welcome. She gave excellent tips on what to do in Kilkenny and helped us plan our day. The room was clean, comfortable with space for luggage,... More

I just happened upon the Butler Court when I was looking for a Saturday night place to stay. I found out later that it is a "Rick Steves" recommended place. The location is in the middle of the downtown area so it is easy to leave your car parked and walk the area. It is also walking distance to the... More

Excellent central location in Kilkenny. We pulled up to the entrance, dropped our stuff off in the room, and parked the car in a nearby garage that was offered free of charge by Butler Court. Good assortment of fruits, cereals, and yogurts available for breakfast. John was very generous to let us use the parking garage after we checked out... More
