Sensory Story

At The Hoban Hotel Kilkenny, we are committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive experience for every guest. Our Sensory Story has been designed to support people with sensory needs by helping them become familiar with the hotel environment before their visit. It offers a simple, reassuring introduction to what guests may see, hear, touch, taste and smell during their time with us, from the entrance and lobby to the restaurant and bedrooms.

The aim is to help guests feel more prepared, comfortable and confident ahead of their stay. The Sensory Story also reflects the hotel’s wider accessibility offering and autism-friendly approach.
