"Lovely stay"

10.0

Enjoyed a very relaxing two day break. So peaceful in the reception area and we loved just sitting with a drink looking at the ocean outside. Was so relaxing. We had a lovely room looking over the sea. Again so so peaceful. Great early in the morning sitting with a coffee and enjoying the sound of the sea. Even saw two dolphins one morning which was incredible. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. A couple of nice surprises added for my wifes birthday which was both unexpected and very gratefully recieved. A special mention to staff member, whose name is Liam I believe. He was so helpful and friendly and went out of his way to make sure you had all you needed throughout our meal in the Garden Restaurant. A very kind gentleman. Food was also very good no complaints at all. In overview a lovely relaxing two days and will most definitely be back.

"Sunday buffet - lack of warm starters choice of meats and veg poor and cold custard- the offering was disappointing"

4.0

Extremely poor for the price choice was terrible nothing for kids but charge £20 per head for them. Food wasn’t warm just tepid. The meats there were three the veg one choice and gravy was the only sauce offered. We waiting for almost 15 mins for more soup and waiting again for a further 10 mins for custard for the warm apple crumble - when it came it was cold!! This place has been recommended but for £38 per head the value for money was lacking and the offering poor!!

"Perfect stay"

10.0

I had the best time at this Hotel. Everything from the staff to the rooms were absoulte perfect. The bedroom was beautiful and the bed was huge. The bed was a cloud mattress which is funny because it felt like i was sleeping on a cloud. The best night sleep i have had in a long time. The pillows and quilt were duckfeathers, so comfortable. The food was good but it was better about 15 years ago when i went but still a good meal. The staff were brilliant and so accomadating and friendly and liked a laugh as im a joker. We went and watched the abba tribute and it was absoultley amazing. We met some amazing people and cant wait to go back. This is a class hotel perferct for relaxing. Im not sure if they are dog friendly but it would be great if they were. I just want to thank the staff for a great stay it was amazing!

"Family Lunch at the Castle"

10.0

Visited Ballygally Castle today for lunch with my family and my special granddaughter. From start to finish it was a wonderful experience. The atmosphere was so relaxing, and all of the staff were fantastic, especially Ann, our server, who was friendly, attentive, and made us feel very welcome. The food was excellent, everyone enjoyed their meal, and compliments to the chef for such lovely dishes. We’ll definitely be back and would highly recommend a visit.

"Sunday carvery was fantastic"

10.0

We had a fantastic Sunday carvery at the hotel and couldn’t fault it. The food was excellent, with an impressive variety of choices to suit everyone — everything was fresh, well cooked, and full of flavour. The staff really made the experience even better: warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly throughout our visit. A relaxed, enjoyable meal from start to finish. We’ll definitely be back and would highly recommend it. Niamh

The food in the restaurant is such a treat and the overall service is top notch! Beautiful views of the ocean and some fantastic coastal routes to explore nearby.

"Perfect Stay!"

10.0

The location, food, staff, rooms, atmosphere - all were faultless. This is the perfect place to get away from it all and the sight and sound of the sea make it so tranquil. Loved and stay and will hurry back.
