The Stables@Knockdrinna is a 3-star hotel in Kilkenny, Republic of Ireland, bookable through IMPT's carbon-neutral hotel programme. Every booking removes 1 ton of UN-verified CO₂ from the atmosphere — physically extracted under United Nations carbon frameworks, retired on-chain, and paid from IMPT's commission at no extra cost to the guest.

That makes The Stables@Knockdrinna one of the genuinely eco-friendly, sustainable, and climate-positive stays available in Kilkenny. The carbon-removal model used here differs from conventional offsets in three ways: removal credits are physically pulled from the atmosphere rather than representing avoided emissions; every retirement is recorded on a public blockchain so the credit can't be resold or double-counted; and verification is handled under UN frameworks — the most rigorous standard available.
Travellers searching for an eco hotel, green hotel, sustainable accommodation, or net-zero stay in Kilkenny can book The Stables@Knockdrinna at the same rate as direct (often less), with free cancellation on most rooms and a discounted price applied automatically at checkout.

UN-verified. The highest standard.
UN VERIFIED
Why UN verification matters.
Most hotel "carbon-neutral" programmes use cheap avoidance offsets — credits that have been over-counted, double-sold, or untraceable. IMPT only retires UN-verified removal credits, the most rigorous independent standard available, and records each retirement on-chain so the credit can never be resold.
