Shopping, good food, a few drinks and a room you can share: Kildare Town is made for a girls' weekend. The Silken Thomas sits on Market Square, less than a 10-minute walk from Kildare Village, with a traditional Irish bar and our award-winning restaurant downstairs. Nobody has to drive, and everything is a short stroll away.
Rooms for friends sharing
Our twin and triple rooms are perfect for two or three friends sharing, and with rooms across three historic houses on Market Square, bigger groups can stay close together. Every room is en-suite, so there's no queuing for the bathroom before a night out.
Your girls' weekend plan
Friday evening: Arrive, check in and head downstairs for dinner and drinks in our bar.
Saturday morning: Breakfast together, then walk to Kildare Village, less than 10 minutes away. Go early to beat the crowds.
Saturday afternoon: Drop the shopping bags back to your room and relax. Fancy a treat? Treehouse Sauna nearby offers a peaceful outdoor wellness experience.
Saturday night: Dinner in our award-winning restaurant, then settle into the bar for the evening.
Sunday: A slow breakfast, a wander through the Japanese Gardens at the Irish National Stud, and home.
Celebrating something special?
Birthdays, catch-ups and celebrations all deserve a proper weekend away. Mention the occasion when you book, and call us on +353 45 522 232 to arrange a table for your group. Looking for gift ideas for the birthday girl? A Silken Thomas gift voucher covers dining and stays.
Getting here
Kildare train station is just minutes from Market Square, with frequent services from Dublin, so nobody has to be the designated driver. By car, we're just off Junction 13 of the M7. For more ideas, read our Kildare Village shopping guide.
