Golf trip stopover
Stayed one night after coming off Stena ferry from Belfast. Grand old building on the cliff top. Fantastic outlook over the harbour and sea beyond. Nice harbour area to visit with places to eat and drink. We are at this accommodation. Food was good and reasonably priced. Service was very good. Hotel itself has been renovated in parts, however, still reflects its age in places. Our room was spacious and the beds comfortable. Bathroom very small. Shower and water pressure not great.

An old hotel with a lot of character and could do with a little tender loving face lift. Comfortable and pleasant stay.

Lovely area very helpful staff
It’s definitely the staff that makes this stay so nice, the hotel has obviously seen better days but they have been redecorating and making a very good effort to improve your stay. One lovely thing as well was how cozy everywhere was so nice to be warm. The chief for the breakfast has to be praised for the perfect eggs in the morning I’m veggie so didn’t try the bacon or sausages but hubby was pleased with them. Staff are all young but very helpful nothing too much for them. It was very reasonably priced lovely area never been before the sea was spectacular to watch. Very mixed age range from youngsters to us oldies warm welcome from Jodie on reception which always make a good start to your stay.

Beautiful location with outstanding views. Very friendly staff. The port itself is a beautiful fishing harbour with a lovely pub/restaurant. If walking to the port harbour from the hotel you need to be quite agile as it's a cliff walk but the steps are very safe and there's plenty of benches to rest on along the way. Very amenable hotel.

We stayed in this hotel before and were happy to come back but unfortunately the property deteriorated and our stay was not as good. We booked superior room, like last time we stayed, but room was much smaller, with small double bed, and very tired bathroom (cracked tiles). It was dusty and needed TLC. Not sure we will be back although the location and the views from the hotel are fabulous and staff are very nice and work hard. If you book - ask for a room with a king bed or twin beds as the double bed we had was very small. Worth paying for a room with sea view.
