The view from the property is unbelievable. The hosts are the most kind and gracious people. We we're traveling using public transport only and Susan and Desmond were so helpful, looking up schedules, locating the best boarding spots, and even going to far as to give us a lift into Waterford to further verify our transportation options. Our room was beautiful and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was one of the best we had in Ireland. Susan even makes her own vegan sausage. if you ever find yourself in Irelands southeast coast, you should go out of your way to stay at Samuel's Heritage. You won't regret it.

My wife and I just got back from our first ever trip to Ireland. We flew into Dublin, spent a few…read morenights in Kilkenny, then bounced around most of the country for the rest of the week, staying in B&B's most of the way (save two nights in a hotel in Kilkenny). This was our first B and B experience ever, and the first of four on this trip. First, let me just say that the Samuels Heritage is beautiful. Their location, the views, the home itself, are all amazing. The place is VERY well kept, clean and perfectly appointed. Our room included a double and twin beds, a great bathroom, and was very nicely decorated and presented. Susan met us upon arrival, and other than my own lack of understanding of B and B's, was extremely helpful. Breakfast was great the next morning, and given our "quite compressed" timelines, we didn't have too much time to linger around and stay. We have full Irish breakfast, lots of cereal and fruit options, GREAT Coffee and tea, and just excellent service all in all. Susan goes a long way to make every effort and consideration, and we hope to be back again someday - - and I really can't say enough about the location and facility itself. The first, and quite easily the best stay of our trip!

The servers studiously avoid making eye contact to see if you want anything else. We were out all day except from about 2:30-4:30 and left the service sign on our room the whole time we were out -- it was never serviced. Ok but for this price you should demand better. This is essentially a three star hotel.

And, wow!... the breakfasts are outstanding, and so beautifully presented. But what made this place truly special are the kind and caring people who worked there. We really enjoyed getting to know them, and their stories. Our favorite places for dinner and within walking distance were: Rive Gauche, Rinoccini, Zuni, and Petronelli. Enjoyed a private walking tour by Pat Moylan, Kilkenny Walking Tour that the Butler house lined up for us. Pat is truly passionate about the history of Kilkenny, and we learned so much! And, Waterford was a quick day trip by train. Highly recommend the walking tour by Jack Burtchaell (meet at the Granville Hotel).

I have to admit that a little bit of the five stars I'm going to give Bridge View B&B is because I was somewhat of a rude guest, in that I arrived over an hour late after getting side tracked driving across Ireland then having my rental car locked in the parking deck across from Smithwick's Brewery (that one closes at 6PM - the 11PM one is up the street). Despite all of this, our hostess Eimear accommodated our tardiness and was very pleasant throughout the whole experience. That's reason enough to book this homey B&B, with the comfortable rooms and ideal location (along with metered parking nearby). The B&B sits right on the River Nore minutes away from a very convenient pedestrian bridge to downtown Kilkenny. The rooms are modest, with comfortable double beds and private bathrooms. The breakfast is delicious and made to order from the menu at the tables. Very much a mom and pop vibe, as Eimear made our breakfast (her husband is a musician we heard play at the Kyteler's Inn the night before - a small world indeed). The place is cash only, so be sure to have enough for your stay - if not, there are ATMs across the aforementioned pedestrian bridge. Overall, when I come back to Kilkenny I'm coming back to Bridge View B&B, and I promise this time not to be so late.

It is an easy 15 minute walk downtown, and if you don't want to walk the city bus (with helpful bus drivers) stops right outside. Katherine is as nice and helpful as can be; our room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable, and breakfast was delicious. The breakfast room overlooks her lovely garden. I needed help calling the Garda office in Cahir to obtain a copy of a report we'd made about a stolen license plate, and she kindly called them for me. If I am lucky enough to return to Kilkenny I would certainly stay there again.
