Firstly, staff here are fantastic! So helpful and nothing is any bother. The hotel itself is nice, there's a decent size car park and it's easy to find. The food and the Guinness is pretty good too. My 3 grumbles: my £125 room was pretty small, the bed wasn't very comfortable and the shower was woeful. I'd stay again if in the area but wouldn't look forward to it.

Greeted by polite friendly receptionist all details of Hotel explained and then directed to room . Room clean and tidy with usual facilities (A complimentary bottle of bottle water for both guests, local supplier River Rock or irish spring would have been a nice touch ) Information folder needs to be reprinted and maybe a menu and Tourist boad brochure included with branded pencil ( Hotel name /phone number included. Hotel lounges , bar and restaurant well appointed , airey and very well maintained, plenty of armchairs and sofas to relax on . Had evening meal , two menus , one specials and one regular menu , restaurant staff friendly and helpful, starters and mains excellent, tried specials menu good choice selection and quality and quantity very good . Good selection of wines . Restaurant staff very attentive in explaining every course they bring out and checking several times if everything ok , once after dish is served would be okay , the food and surroundings sell themselves . Breakfast was a big let down , not enough set out and was not well prepared and was nearly cleared at early time , Given that many guests had still to have breakfast ( mostly scottish over for Parade both attendees and spectators) and Americans . Not great . Good location , parking and comfortable and good food restaurant/ Bar . Negative breakfast .

Hotel well situated if easy access to the town is required. The room was a reasonable size however a bit tatty. The bathroom couldn’t have been any smaller. Could do with a non-slip mat for the bath/shower. Towels were soft and clean. No plug for the sink but rang reception and it was sorted. Good selection of tea, coffee and biscuits. Bed was clean and comfortable. Window was directly above kitchen extractor fans so noisy and with the window open the smell of rancid fat was overbearing and sickening but closed it was too hot. Room was extremely dark - tiny window - so needed lights on all of the time. When using the phone had to untangle the cable which resulted in a cloud of dust! Adequate wardrobe/drawer space with plenty of well placed sockets. Iron and ironing board a bonus. Breakfast was just ok, bacon very salty and orange juice watery. Eggs and sausages were good. Tea excellent. Think worst rooms are kept for those buying online at discounted rates. The staff were lovely, extremely helpful and friendly and made the stay bearable. Parking adequate however difficult to manoeuvre in certain spots. Not enough/well placed disabled spaces.

Lovely size room light and airy, very comfortable beds especially the very plump pillows. The Adair Arms had all the facilities required to make your stay the best with the added attraction of really great entertainment of live music to suit the taste of all on Saturday Evening. Irish breakfast was particularly good with a wide variety of choice.

Just a bit noisy with heavy doors continually slamming shut at night with residents going to bed. (11.30 through to 2:30) Perhaps a quieter door mechanism could be applied?
