    Pros +

    • They did great with decorating. The view from the room was great. The bed was comfortable. Staff was very sweet. The cost was perfect.
    • Friendly staff.
    • The hotel was convenient for the ferry from Ireland. It was clean and comfortable, very reasonably priced and the staff were helpful and friendly. Would definitely stay again.

    Cons -

    • Restaurant is only open thurs-sun. Might be an issue for others. The walls are very thin I could hear someone talking and snoring on the other side. Radiator didn’t work and since they don’t really had an office run down to ask questions or a room phone I didn’t exactly have anyone to reach as my cell only had data not minutes to use. So I slept in my sweater and used a few towels to keep warm while sleeping. Don’t think I slept at all.
    • NO PARKING. Lots of steps to climb.
    • I had no idea where to have a meal. I didn’t see anything being served in the pub, although it may have just been because it was a Tuesday? A list of local restaurants and options would have been helpful. Also, there was a Smart TV but no instructions on how to use it.

    Newly refurbished with a good bed and pillows. Centrally located but surprisingly quiet.

    Comfortable immaculate room, centrally located, wonderful restaurant, friendly staff

    9MccallionPosted on: 8-5-2025

    The location was excellent

    Stairs to room roughly 46 me and my husband are both disabled myself i am partially sighted, my husband has heart problems,he also kept getting called a lady which annoyed him ,the shower had no pressure which we did report to janet who then called myself and my husband ladies which annoyed my husband,he is slight of build due to him having cancer as a boy we stayed in room 5 it would've been better if they had a porter or someone to offer to carry your bags up all the stairs it was a struggle for myself and my husband but all in the staff were pleasant and the hotel was lovely

    A perfect overnight stay before catching the ferry. Excellent value. The owners, Janet and Derek, were very friendly, helpful and welcoming, as were all the staff. The room was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Dinner was one of the nicest meals we've eaten out for a while with great veggie options.

    There was nothing we didn't like. There's no breakfast, so on our next trip we'll bring something to keep us going.

    Staff and food were excellent and room facilities were to a high standard

    A little noisy on a summer evening with the windows open.

    9RobertPosted on: 7-7-2025

    Very friendly, helpful staff. Dinner very high standard - well done all concerned (chefs and front of house).

    Low water pressure in shower.

    10EnikoPosted on: 6-8-2025

    The room and the bed were very comfortable and spotlessly clean and fresh. The staff was very friendly.

    The hot water pressure was weak.

    10SandraPosted on: 6-2-2025

    Fantastic Hotel in centre of town. Spotlessly clean, modern and very comfortable. Staff go above and beyond to make you feel welcome.

    Due to its location, there is no hotel parking available but there is off street parking close by.

    10ColinPosted on: 4-27-2025

    Perfect location and clean and staff very friendly

    8FrancessPosted on: 4-23-2025

    Room had everything we needed . Very clean, staff were friendly. Brilliant secure parking for motorbikes . 5 minutes to ferry port

    Room was cold when we arrived . However we mentioned it to the staff who turned the heating on

    8ChristopherPosted on: 4-18-2025

    Great hotel with exceptional staff. After a mix up caused by Booking.com the staff managed to sort the issue quickly. Rooms are modern and clean. Beds are super comfy.

    8RonniePosted on: 4-10-2025

    Immaculate, loved the room layout and its central location. Super friendly staff, cracking bar for a refreshment

    Absolutely nothing, I will try book on a night that the restaurant is open to try the great menu

    10AlastairPosted on: 3-31-2025

    Absolutely superb. Great family run hotel. The owners and all of the staff were very good, very approachable and helpful, nothing was a problem.Minor comment, when the bar was busy, it did get a wee bit warm, however, a quick trip out to the beer garden fixed that.

    8ColenePosted on: 3-23-2025

    Really friendly staff couldn’t have been nicer to us the rooms were spotless and very comfortable. Would definitely recommend and use again.

    Just to be mindful when booking here it’s on top of a pub and can be a little noisy that’s our only thing.

    10MariePosted on: 3-23-2025

    The staff were very welcoming and helpful. While the hotel has obviously been there for a long time, the room was beautifully refurbished and very modern. The room and ensuite was exceptionally clean and comfortable. The hotel offers an evening meal. Despite being located on a busy junction and having a pub, the hotel was very quiet and relaxing. We had a lovely time.

    9LollbackPosted on: 3-22-2025

    Loved the restaurant, food for dinner was outstanding. Room was clean and comfortable, host was welcoming and friendly. Lot of stairs but worth it.
