This is probably the friendliest hotel I've ever stayed in, and I've travelled a good bit. Everyone from reception to dining room staff to just staff you pass in the halls were great to deal with. The location is fantastic, overlooking the harbour. It's also ideally located for walking, with Dunskey Castle ruins to the south, and Killantringan Lighthouse to the north, and dramatic coastal scenery in between. Restaurant service was good. The hotel itself could use a little upgrading. The carpets were old/stained, et al. But this didn't really affect the stay. My only real grumble is the shower/water pressure, which was non-existent. Could do with investing in some electric shower systems. Having said that, everything else was fine: comfy bed, nice lounge area (with great views), bar, restaurant, outdoor seating, ample free parking, etc. I'd happily stay again.

Fantastic Hotel

It is a lovely hotel. The staff were brilliant. Nothing was a problem. Very Clean. It is suitable for all walks of lives. Only one thing i would say is that it could do with a lick of paint to freshen it up.

The location of the hotel is outstanding on the cliff top overlooking the harbour and the sea. The rooms are comfortable. On our last stay however the breakfast buffet service was disappointing, with a lack of hot food for around 30 minutes

Stunning views, great food and exceptional staff

Stunning views. Hotel is situated on a cliff edge overlooking the sea. I could sit and stare at that view all day, Hotel was short staffed but I think to be fair they’ve just been caught out by being very busy out of season, food was great and I’d definitely recommend it. Staff are all friendly, from the receptionist who had a sore ankle to to the Manageress, the waitresses and night manager all made you feel very welcome. Everyone had a good attitude and couldn’t have done anymore to help us during our stay. Rooms are in need of a wee refurb but I’d still return as it is, given the friendly staff and reasonably priced food and drink, it’s a great choice for a wee random night away. 10/10 from me.

Excellent stay

We had a super stay at this hotel. We checked in with a lovely receptionist Sophie,who was was warm and friendly. Our room was super with a lovely four poster bed and superb view. I had phoned ahead a few days prior as it was a special occasion and we appreciated the room that was given to us . I am sure the receptionist had made sure we received the lovely room. We had dinner also in the hotel dining room and every member of staff we encountered were friendly and welcoming, dinner was also lovely. A very relaxing and super stay at this lovely hotel.
