Kilkenny

Kilkenny, also known as the Marble City is situated on the banks of the River Nore, it lies only just over an hour southeast from Dublin has been voted the 9th friendliest city in the world by Conde Nast Traveller readers.

As a former haunt of mine, I can definitely agree. With friends I spent many great evenings wandering the streets of this small town; it is a city but really it's possible to walk from one side to the other in about 15 minutes.
