"Excellent Stay!"

10.0

We stayed for one night and couldn’t fault anything about the experience. Room was spacious, well maintained and finished to a high standard. Bed was comfortable and there were tea, coffee and bath robes and slippers in the room. We had a two course meal at the restaurant which was beautiful and a buffet breakfast the next morning which was also really good! Would recommend

"Lovely Night Away"

10.0

We stayed for one night in Feb 2026; its been years since we have been here but thanks to some Christmas vouchers we booked to stay. The weather was typical Antrim coast - rain! However we had a great time; the hotel is beautiful, the rooms big and clean, we had a great view and the staff were very helpful. This is perfect for a relaxing get away. If you want to party its really not the place; the bar is quiet and closes around 11pm although stays open for residences, there also isn't any bars etc within a reasonable distance. Its really a nice place to get away for a few nights and explore the area. Will definitely be back.

"FANTASTIC PLACE"

10.0

I normally write my reviews down straight away but I am late uploading to Trip Advisor. This is a fantastic hotel in a beautiful location. We had been here many years ago. We booked a sea view room. When we arrived we were told our room had been upgraded. We were shown our room, which was a lovely room overlooking the garden. We really wanted a sea view so we did go back down and say. We had to wait for the manager who wasn’t there to see if we could have one. We waited in the bar area which was lovely. Luckily after a while we were told we could have sea view room. Lovely beach over the road. Full of history. Restaurant was very good. Garden was beautiful with fantastic smelling flowers. Totally recommend this place, we had a fantastic stay.

"Perfection"

10.0

I can’t explain this location without using the word perfect! It’s sitting on the water and you can watch and listen to the sea the whole time. The staff couldn’t be kinder and the food is amazing. All the facilities are brilliant. We seriously can’t wait to go back. A hidden gem!

"Coastal Cracker..."

10.0

My wife and I had an smashing overnight stay in the Garden Suite which exceeded all our expectations...we highly recommend. Looks can be deceiving as we've drove past this venue 100's of times and never though about staying but so glad we did. The Castle in steepped in history and autenticity but the luxury carpet, fixtures and fittings, gave it tat bit of class. Our room the Garden suite was luxious, comforable and clean...exactly what we wanted. The food and service as the bar and restuarent was a real highlight. Staff all seemed to have a smile, wanted to have a chat and always seemed to have a bit of time to serve and answer any questions. Overall great staff and a venue we'll definitly return too.

"Great Stay"

8.0

Stayed at Ballygally Castle for the 2nd time. Had drinks, Bed & Breakfast and Evening Meal and experienced the show by Mowtown Sensations (last year was Elvis Experience). Great entertainment that interacted with the audience & kept everyone dancing throughout the night. Decent value for money and the Glencloy room in the tower was very comfortable and clean.
