This hotel is located in the old Bishops Palace and is a Queen Ann style house from 1730 that we just fell in love with. Our room was drop dead gorgeous and seemed more like a private home than a hotel. I simply loved the bath that had a nice deep tub you could sink into and hide under the soap bubbles. Reminded me of a claw footed tub, and maybe it was but it was enclosed, though free standing so I couldn't tell. Again, it was like being in the bath of a private home, so roomy and well appointed. We truly felt at home there and the bed was very comfy as well.
The staff was wonderful, too, and loved telling stories of all the famous people who have stayed there. The grounds consist of something like twenty-eight acres of gardens, which were very nice to walk through, which surround a thirteenth century cathedral along with a private path that goes directly to the Rock of Cashel. The Bishop's Buttery Restaurant features wonderful Irish cuisine and the Guines Bar is supposed to be linked to the brewery. I don't care for beer myself, but hubby had a pint and pronounced it very good.
