The location was beautiful, overlooking the golf course… I would specifically ask for a king room overlooking the course. The staff at the hotel was very helpful… Lily, Lorraine, Luisa… And Grace in the dining room room. We had such a lovely time there. Ate in the dining dining room room, both breakfast and dinner each night.

A quiet, peaceful, relaxing, couple of days… Highly recommend this location

I’d have to say, this was the best Hotel, we’ve stayed in during our trip.
Great location, not too far from town.
Great amenities, on site, various restaurants and bars. Food and drink were lovely.
Free parking, bonus!!
The hotel had so much charm.
Rooms were large and spacious, and very clean.
Washroom had a heated floor and good lighting.
One bit of annoyance was that you couldn’t turn the washroom light off or on, it was automatic and the door was shaded glass. So therefore in the middle of the night if you happened to get up, you were blasted with the light!
Coffee maker and tea kettle in room.
Overall was a lovely stay!

The hotel was nice. The room was a small, but we were just there one night. Staff was friendly and helpful. If you don't plan on going into Portrush center city to eat, make a reservation at the White Pheasant restaurant inside the hotel, otherwise there isn't anywhere to eat near by. They have Kelly's which is pizza and burgers.

The hotel was just fine but what elevated my one night stay was the warmth of the staff. From reception to the bartenders and the wait staff at breakfast there was nothing other than genuine friendliness and kind consideration, none of the corporate smarminess one might find or usually finds in chain hotels. And a two minute drive to the golf course. Nice!

Room was clean and had nice amenities but super small which we could have just thought that all the rooms happened to be small but not so as my brother and his wife’s room was more than double the size of ours at the same price. There needs to be another price level for the smaller rooms as it is drastically different.
Happy with it in other respect but couldn’t move around it and had to use the bed as a place to open up our suitcases.

The best thing about this hotel is the lovely staff. Negatives for us was the room was very small and you could hear all that was happening outside the room. I got soup for lunch when we arrived and it was far too creamy. There was an issue with broken glass on our room floor when we arrived and it was obvious that it hadnt been vacuumed, this was swiftly and professionally dealt with by reception and management. There was also quite a bit of mould in the shower which would just need a bit more attention from cleaning staff also. Location of the hotel, the staff and bar were all good. I would stay again

Very modern looking facility both in & outside. Spacious lobby and lots of dining options. Stair & lift available; to access room floors, your room key card opened the lift doors and the door to access floor 2.

Decor was suited to the golfing theme. Loved the very modern bathroom with heated floor.

Room was cosy, too small for even a double bed, barely 2 feet on either side of the bed, 10x10 sq ft at most.

Considering I had booked well in advance, I would have thought we would have gotten a better room, with better views (we got the back of the property and the top of the roof). Seems as if certain rooms may be reserved for Expedia users.

Overall, average, not worth the hype or the cost.

On booking, the hotel website had no availability, but I was able to book through Expedia, at an extra cost. At check in I was told that because I had booked through a 3rd party website breakfast was not included and it would cost £10 extra per person, having already paid £140, and thought breakfast was included. I think that was a bit much

Lovely Modern Hotel

We have stayed here twice now in the last 4 months, overall I loved the hotel, it was comfy, cosy and had all you needed. The only problem was that the first night there was a drain/pipe above our room and it made a noise the whole night, the second night the fire alarm went off at nearly mid night for about 30 seconds and the room next door shouted and what sounded like moving furniture across a wooden floor for a good while after that. If it hasn't of been for these reasons it would have been 5/5

Awful Customer Service and NOT family friendly

This hotel is not family friendly at all. First morning at breakfast kids offered crunchy nut, special K or porridge as a cereal. We asked had they anything else the reply way “just what I told you”. Second morning we bought cereal and brought it with us.
We spend the Friday night eating in the restaurant which was very nice and food was lovely.
On the Saturday two of us and a 15 year old went down to the bar to get a drink whilst the girls got ready and watch the football which they had showing. When we arrived we were told to go to the public bar which we did to be told no under 18 allowed. We went back to reception and proceeded towards the library bar where the football was on TV and not one person in there. We were told it’s for donning only. We explained we only wanted a drink whilst the girls got ready and they were adamant we only allowed if we have food. We told them their public bar doesn’t allow under 18 to which the security guard said nothing he could do and we needed to order food as the tables are for the public and we said we are staying in the hotel. This security guy was rude and very authoritarian. My friend turned to his 15 year old son and said come on sun we will spend our money elsewhere. The security guard then said don’t need to take that attitude with me.
We stopped at reception and asked to make a complaint and the poor reception girl looked confused and said she didn’t know about complaints and gave us a business card and email in to it.
