Fantastic hotel.

Fantastic hotel in the perfect location. Sitting outside with a drink and watching the sunset was amazing. Staff are all lovely, food was great and the rooms very comfortable. Even a Nespresso machine in the room! One of my favourite hotels in Northern Ireland.

A must hotel to visit

This hotel was recommended to us and i read the reviews that people who had been for 1 night wished they had been for 2. Only staying for 1 night we felt exactly the same. Everything was faultless. The evening meal was out just as good or maybe better then the ritz. Will definatly be returning. And also as this was a trip which includes 3 different hotels everyone we speak to knows and as stayed at this hotel. Its there go to hotel!!! Thats says it all and even better if you can get a room in the turrets as only 3 or a sea view.
