Fijn!

Wij kregen de hoekkamer met uitzicht op zee. Geweldig! Ontbijt en diner prima, vriendelijk personeel en voldoende parkeergelegenheid op straat. Goed overnachtingshotel op weg naar de ferry naar Ierland.

Not too bad with excellent location & lovely staff

The hotel is decent. It is a little old looking and a touch run down however the staff are lovely and the location is perfect! So actually for what we needed it was great. We weren't sure about breakfast as nobody mentioned anything so we ended up not going for breakfast at all. The bar serve a good selection of drinks and there is music on at the weekend which is a nice touch.

Visiting southern Scotland, this location and quaint harbor town met our needs. The hotel is fine - well located and perfect for visiting this town and part of Scotland. Our room was large with no issues. Restaurant and service similarly fine with no complaints . Price was very reasonable I felt compared to other options - I’d recommend and would give it 2.5 to 3 star rating

Amazing view of the harbour and out to sea. In the heart of the village so very central. Good breakfast for a reasonable cost. Quirky rooms using the space available well.

8/10 Very good

A little bit of consistency goes a long way!

The location was perfect, Port Patrick is a secret piece of happiness. The Hotel easy to get too, however no parking on-site but the surrounding area is FREE however its a free for all if you can get close enough if not the harbour carpark is just 2 min walk up the road and again its FREE! The Family room we were in was very big but the bathroom tiny. The view from the room was amazing. It was clean and all we needed for a 1 night stop over. The Breakfast was nice, however my partner asked for a pouched egg instead of fried and was told NO! Then the next table asked for Scrambled egg instead of fried and was told YES which angered my partner immensely! (Poached egg was also on the menu). The cleaner was very friendly the other staff ummmmm Would we stay again maybe not, their seems to be a few options in the close vicinity but don't let the non-poached eggs put you off for the money its not bad x
