When we first checked in our room was supposed to be on the 2nd floor, but last minute changes put us on the main floor in the "Kate Room" which happens to be our granddaughter's name...needless to say, we were very touched by this. The room was fabulous.

Pedestrian access to the Postmasters House from the car park required crossing a busy street without a signaled crosswalk. In fairness to the establishment, the entire center of Kildare town could use a upgrade to make pedestrian safety more of a priority.
