Wonderfully charming inn with lots of character and history. We had a nice chat with the very friendly innkeeper/bartender (we forgot to ask her name) and she also helped us to find a place for dinner in town since we arrived after their restaurant had closed. The room was on the small side but efficient and clean with a large ensuite bathroom. There is no lift so this may be less suited for older travelers or travelers with limited mobility. We greatly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend

The property was central in Carrickfergus and very close to the castle. Value for money. The beds were very comfortable. I will definitely go back.

Nice stay with good breakfast
For us it was about location. Good breakfast. It is an older establishment so expect things like a gap between the door and the frame to let light in from hallway and a smaller room. Clean. Staff was very conscientious.

Although this is a quaint old hotel there are some features that older travelers may not like. First there is no lift in this hotel, so unless you get a room on the bottom floor, you will be lugging your bags up some very narrow stairs. The hallways were narrow passageways to a small room; the door did not have a traditional handle, only a deadbolt-latch on the inside. It had a “hostel” vibe about the room. Downstairs was a tired version of old-world pub. The staff was friendly and understanding when we requested a cancellation/refund on our 3rd floor room

Staff were great! Breakfast was nice. Location is perfect either to escape Belfast, or for a start to the Causeway Coastal Route. Beautiful surroundings, and walkable to both public transit and the sites of Carrickfergus

Excellent location. Staff was helpful, welcoming, efficient, and always available. Room was clean and set up as we requested. Only negative is that the bar can get a bit noisy, but we weren't bothered much by it. We did enjoy a delicious meal at the bar. Across the street is another bar which also can get a bit noisy, including setting off fireworks in the street. Since the noise only lasted a short time, less than 15 minutes, it was not worth complaining about to the manager. Overall, I'd recommend this property to anyone visiting the castle or the downtown area. When I return, I will definitely book again.

Very central location in Carrickfergus and great food. Unfortunately our stay was ruined because we were in a room above their function room and it was VERY noisy on our first night. Because of this we would not stay again.
