Hotel con piscina a Thomastown

My Mom and I stayed at Mount Juliet, in the Hunter's Yard, for three nights on a trip to celebrate her retirement and 65th birthday, which the hotel marked with a special treat. The room was clean, large and well appointed, with nice decor. The bed was really comfortable. The staff were helpful and friendly. The breakfast had the usual items and the restaurants had limited dinner menus, but the food we had was tasty. We enjoyed the movie theatre, spa treatments, and the grounds of the estate. There were other activities available as well, which we didn't book. There is a shuttle service between the two hotel locations on site. Not a walkable location as there is little outside the grounds, but it was easy to get a taxi to Kilkenny for sightseeing if you ask reception. Kilkenny has a few tourist activities, but is pretty small. We downloaded the Free Now app and it worked great to get a taxi from Kilkenny back to the hotel. Jerpoint Abbey is a nice little historic site just a short drive down the street. There is plenty to do if you are looking for a leisurely, relaxed break. It may not be your thing if you are looking for a hotel/area for lots of tourist sightseeing/activities. My Mom was disappointed there were no longer equestrian activities, and found the pool too cold. Otherwise, it was a perfect stay.
