Newpark Hotel

The food and the decor was fantastic and the service was exceptional from start to finish

From the moment we met with Sineád, we knew that the Newpark hotel was the place for our wedding and it did not disappoint!

Sineád and her team are very friendly and approachable, there was nothing too big or small of a task for them. They answered any questions we had and gave us numerous recommendations for different vendors when needed. They took so much stress out of planning our wedding, it felt a breeze to organise as I felt they had such a big chunk of the day highly planned for me.

On the day of our wedding Newpark was elegantly set up and both the food and the staff were outstanding, so much so that people were complementing both for weeks to come after the wedding.

If you are looking for a place for your wedding in Kilkenny, I highly recommend Newpark hotel. It is a decision that you won't regret. They will make your day the most wonderful and memorable that it can be, you will not be disappointed.

We had our wedding reception in the Newpark on 9/9/23. It was amazing to say the least. From the moment we met Sinead, it was an absolute dream! The staff were exceptional on the day and made our guests so welcome. We would highly recommend this venue! The attention to detail was second to none and any request was met with a smile. The service and food on the day was excellent! We are so delighted that we chose Newpark Kilkenny. We had no worries and Aga looked after us so well on the day. We felt so at home every time we visited the Newpark. Thank you for adding to our day.

We had the most magical wedding day on 25th August 2023 and thankfully everything went off without a hitch thanks to Sinead, the wedding coordinator and the Newpark team.

Dimitri was amazing on the day, he couldn't have been more helpful and constantly made sure we had everything we needed. All of our guests were very complimentary regarding their meal and the service. Everyone was amazed with the portion sizes - no one was left hungry, that's for sure and the ballroom revamp was absolutely beautiful!

We were so pleased we stuck with Newpark for day 2, the later start gave everyone a chance to regroup, the bbq spread was delicious and the one man band you found was absolutely brilliant. Our guests are still raving about the weekend and we couldn't be more pleased with how it all went. We were thinking afterwards and couldn't fault Newpark or the service at all and if we could do it all again we wouldn't change a thing!

If you are considering the NewPark Hotel for your wedding venue, don't think about it too long. Just book it!!!! Honestly, nothing was too much. A big shout out & thanks to our wedding coordinator Sinead, she went above & beyond. She is very easy to chat with and work with. Anything we needed, it was taken care of immediately. Another big thanks to one of the staff, Young Chap called Cian, He was very helpful to us both, I wish I had the names of all the other staff to thank them, all staff and management were so accommodating!!

The food was so nice!! Tasty, lovely & hot ????
The rooms were immaculate! Clean and so comfortable ????
Our wedding was perfect - We are so grateful to The New Park Hotel

We had our wedding here last Saturday. We cannot recommend this hotel enough for a wedding, night away, couples, spa day, family break. it is THE BEST hotel we have ever stayed in. from the very first day we visited the newpark as a potential wedding venue we were blown away. the staff have been outstanding each and every time we have set foot inside the hotel. Sinead, who was our main contact in relation to the wedding was always very quick to answer any questions we had and we always felt well taken care of. Aga was the main woman on the day of our wedding and without her it would not have gone as smoothly as it did. Dimitri was also amazing, i couldnt believe it when he approached me at 3am still offering to do anything he could for us, i was amazed. Cian was our main server at the top table he went above and beyond for us, especially when i realised that i forgot my speech, he printed it off for me. Stephen was our main link at our day 2, he was under pressure as double our original numbers turned up but he pulled it off and kept calm at all times. each and everyone of the servers on the day of the wedding and day two deserve a special mention as they were all outstanding, our guests kept commenting about how professional they staff were and how well trained they were. thank you Aoife, Ada, Bobby, Chloe, Roisin, Grace, Lucy, Renata, Romy, Enya, Emma W, Meghan, Miriam, Yvonne, Jai, Jack and Sara.

We could not recommend the Newpark hotel enough. We had our wedding there on 30th June this year. We are so thrilled with how everything went with the venue. Many of our friends and family have said it's the best service they have ever experienced at a wedding. The food fantastic and the staff were excellent. Our guests were thrilled with the quality of their bedrooms - as were we! Sinead was so helpful during the whole wedding planning process and everything felt effortless on the day. I would definitely recommend this hotel for a wedding or a stay.

The Newpark was the first and only venue we viewed. Sin?ad from the get go was amazing and extremely helpful. There was never any problem with anything I could email her about anything and she was straight back to me, so helpful and so kind.The new refurbished ballroom is beautiful looking and we were lucky to have it. The team on the day were amazing they couldn't of done enough for us and the food was absolutely delicious, everybody commented on how good the food was. We had the best day ever there and I would recommend the Newpark to anyone.

Myself and my Husband got married at the Newpark Hotel Kilkenny on 04 June 2023. From the first day we went to view the hotel we were just blown away with how beautifully the ballroom and gardens were. We were also so impressed with the wedding coordinator Sinead. She was so helpful, gave so much information and laid out all of the possible options we could have on the day. The Newpark was the only hotel we viewed for our wedding day because we were just so impressed from the outset. Throughout the planning of the wedding Sinead was brilliant at getting back to all questions and requests. No matter our changes and requests the Newpark was so flexible. On the day Sinead and Agha were amazing. I was relaxed and happy the entire day as they just put me at ease that everything was being looked after. I had organised a secret birthday cake to be brought out after dinner with party hats too and it went brilliantly. We had the most amazing day and all of our guests were also so impressed and everyone raved about the food. I would absolutely recommend the Newpark Hotel for your wedding day.

The utmost amazing wedding venue. Sinead, Aga, Caitriona and Paul, we will never be able to express how grateful we are for the best wedding day (and day 2) ever! Thank you all so much!!

We cannot thank the Newpark Hotel enough for an amazing wedding day and experience. It was really a 5 star quality service. A special thank you to Aga and all staff members who were so professional, friendly and helpful on the day. Sinead Fortune was a pleasure to work with, she was always at the end of the phone or available through email. All our guests really enjoyed the day.

We both want to say a massive thank you to Sinead and all the staff at Newpark. We couldn't have asked for better in all aspects of the wedding from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious and all the farmers were singing the hotels praises!!! Big thank you to the chiefs who went out of their way to cater for all dietary requirements, including a delicious gluten free dessert for the bride. Ye are amazing at what you do!
A special thank you to you Sinead, you put us at ease throughout the whole process and kept everything straight forward and without stress.

On the day, Wictor and Aga made sure everything ran smoothly for us and our guests. Aga was always on hand to check in and insure everything was up to standard.

Newpark, thank you for making our day so special.

All the staff in the hotel were amazing. So easy to work with and very attentive to the fine details. We had a two night wedding in the hotel and we did not have a single complaint from start to finish, everything was amazing. Sinead was always so easy to deal with and very responsive. The hotel has amazing baqueting staff who were so attentive on the day and made sure our guests and ourselves were all really well looked after. We are so happy we chose The Newpark for our wedding and would 100% recommend to any bride & groom.

We were so happy with the newpark. We couldn't fault any of their services. From the first day we viewed the hotel we were very excited about having our wedding there. We had our ceremony and reception in the hotel. Everything flowed perfectly. Sinead our wedding coordinator was brilliant. Very helpful and very quick to respond to any questions we had. The food was amazing and everyone commented on how nice it was. Everyone also loved the wine. We would highly recommend the newpark Hotel. Wish we could do it all over again.

The Newpark Hotel have mastered the art of running a perfect wedding. All members of the planning team and the management on the day were exceptional and provided a service second to none. In fact all members of wait staff and bar staff played their roles superbly and we were catered for at every turn. The details of our day were customised to our requests and on the day those details were executed flawlessly. The quality of the food was excellent and was the element of the day most people remarked on. Service was quick and efficient and contributed to an excellent overall flow on the day. The table settings, room decor and seating layout was fabulous and really elevated our photos. Out wedding day was the best day ever and I wish I could do it all again... and if I could, I'd do it in The Newpark Hotel again.

We had a small wedding ceremony of under 30 people, they exceeded our expectations.
They gave us great value on everything especially when you compare them to other places that offer the same. They were always quick to respond to any queries we had, they were always there to meet and help us with any unusuall request we had, We would like to say special thanks to the whole team especially Nicky he is a real gem if it wasn't for him who knows how this ceremony would of turned out, sometimes it seemed as if he was reading our minds, his hospitality and management skills are top-noch

Newpark Hotel was the only wedding venue we looked at, as we knew how well they catered for all guests and how much we enjoyed weddings there in the past. We didn't want to go anywhere else!
Sin?ad, our wedding co-ordinator, was great to deal with; professional, personable, quick to respond to emails, and no task or query was ever too much. She made the planning and decision-making very easy and gave great advice. We knew we were in safe hands.
On the day, the hotel was decorated beautifully for Christmas, the staff were very friendly, attentive and accomodating, and the delicious food was a highlight of many people's day.
Thanks to Nicky on the day too, who looked after the bridal party so well and even managed to settle some nerves at the top table!
I can't speak highly enough of this venue and the staff. Thanks to all.

Wedding in Newpark was organized by event manager Sin?ad Fortune she was very efficient and was always accommodating, nothing was ever a problem or an issue that she was unable to solve.,
We had the utmost confidence in our choice and the service was outstanding, the staff all seem to be happy and like a family wanting the same thing for you the newly weds to have the best day ever,
The food was the talk of our quests, the quality the quantity, the top table was served with with music and performance by waiters & waitresses, I thought I was on a cruise, the standard was exceptional.
The room was perfection I cried when I saw it before dinner, Nicki the manager on that weekend had every reason to be proud, he does a good job and runs a great team catering to 200 quests.
That's only the reception the rooms top class everyone loved their bedrooms and how comfy the beds were, the breakfast staff so friendly and dealt with a large crowd day after the wedding.
We stayed on until Tuesday not wanting it to end.

Newpark hotel was an amazing place to have our wedding, from the first meeting with our wedding planner to the day itself everyone was so professional and friendly. We were made to feel so special not only for the day of the wedding but the entire weekend we spent there. Nothing was too much trouble for any of the wonderful staff that work there. Everything went off without a hitch!

I cannot recommend the Newpark Hotel high enough. The staff are amazing and pay attention to every little detail. Everything was carried out by all perfectly. The service was the absolute best and the food was to the absolute highest standard. All our guests were completely blown away. The Newpark takes away all that talk about bridal stress, they have everything and more to make your day a dream. The day they created for us was an absolute dream come true. Management, staff, service, food and atmosphere was impeccable. It is like this every time we visit the Newpark. Thank you all for making our dreams a reality

We had an amazing Wedding Day at The Newpark. Sinead, Niall and their team were fantastic to deal with and just gently took control on the day for us making sure all was ok but not over the top either. All our guests commented on the fantastic food and service. We had our second day celebrations there also and the open farm was a big hit with the smaller guests. Cannot recommend the team and experience at Newpark enough.

I would highly recommend the Newpark Hotel. Their level of service from the events team, to the receptionists, to the bar staff and waiting staff was outstanding. What I loved was that this service wasn't just to us as the bridal couple but that all our guests commented on the service too. The food was gorgeous and they were able to provide plenty of options for coeliacs that tasted delicious too. It rained on our day but the hotel look so beautiful that it didn't take away from the day at all. If I had to choose all over again I would pick them time and time again.

The Newpark were exceptional in how they dealt with us and made our wedding day truly amazing, completely hitch free and made us feel so special. They went above and beyond and couldn't possibly have done anymore. Truly fabulous venue. Food amazing and suggestions they made also amazing.

The staff are always at hand for any queries and are so efficient and easy to deal with. Our day ran really smoothly and we had no worries thanks to the pleasant and highly competent staff at The Newpark Hotel.

We could not rate Newpark Hotel highly enough having held our wedding there last month. From the day we started dealing with Newpark, we were treated in the most professional and friendly manner. Nothing was too much trouble and the suggestions and tips given to us were fantastic. The day of the wedding has been described to us by many of our guests as "perfection", from the food (which was out of this world) to the service to the hotel decor itself. We would highly recommend the Newpark Hotel to any future brides considering this venue. Yvonne (wedding co-ordinator), Mark, Ger and Niall were all an absolute pleasure to deal with and took any stress out of the day. We had the most memorable, perfect and amazing day and can not thank the Newpark enough as it was all down to their hard work, attention to detail and top class service.

When we set out to plan our wedding I had very definite ideas about what I wanted, when I spoke to Yvonne I was sold, straight away she totally got what we wanted!we were celebrating our wedding in two parts, we were having 35 guests for dinner in Newark and a party the following weekend in a dublin venue! We wanted to host our guests in a beautiful venue, in intimate smaller space because of numbers. We didn't want to be over formal, we wanted a personal high quality service, and food that people would enjoy!!! We wanted the best with small numbers we really wanted it to be extra special...... So we booked the Parksuite in the Newark for a banquet table. Every detail I wanted, the Newark team delivered and even added considerations that I hadn't even thought of!!! Every staff member we met from porter to general manager was amazing!! The courtesy 's and hospitality of this team can not be understated!!!!! I can't tell you enough about how good they all were..... Little things like the wedding coordinator Yvonne introducing you to the duty manager niall that you would be meeting the wedding day!! Being greeted by name by the Gm every time you visit!! All my guests new their waitresses by name and everyone couldn't say enough good things about how lovely everyone was!!! Each of my guests have sinced returned to the Newark and have said they got the same service on the second visit!!! I have never stayed in a hotel that gives you such exemplary service!!! We were not spending giant amounts of money with this venue but the level of service and the attention to detail we might as well have been booking out the entire place!!!!Can't recommend them enough.....super venue, good. Service, team and accommodation!!!!!! As I mentioned at beginning of review, we were having wedding celebration in two parts....the only pitfall of booking the new park is dat their incredible service quality and value really showed up our second venue( which was very average) and highlighted what great hotels and teams the Newark has!!!!

We wanted to thank you most sincerely in helping us have the most enjoyable Wedding Day.
From start to finish you have been a great support to Orla and I and made everything very easy for us.
We really enjoyed working with you and you made everything hassle free and nothing was too much trouble.
We had the most amazing couple of days in the hotel.
All the staff went above & beyond the call of duty, the Food was absolutely amazing and the atmosphere was just incredible.
We cannot thank you & all the staff at the hotel enough for making this very special day in our lives so memorable & enjoyable.
It would be our pleasure to recommend the hotel to anyone for their big day or for a visit, not only because of the beautiful surroundings in the hotel but more importantly because of the staff there- absolutely first class.
