Top Carrickfergus Castle Hotel Reviews

Downshire Haven

10/10 Excellent

"My partner and I had a wonderful stay here! The property is spotless, comfortable, and equipped with everything needed to feel right at home. The host was also exceptionally communicative."

The Nines, Bangor Marina

10/10 Excellent

"Spotlesss clean Staff delightful Breakfast delicious Bar great service"

Culloden Estate & Spa

8/10 Good

"Culloden is a very pretty spot but service was a bit uneven. Front desk was terrific and could not have been more welcoming and helpful. Breakfast and dining fell short. Long waits and relatively poor quality was out of character with the rest of the property. We stayed two nights and would stay again as its rooms and natural beauty are terrific. The free breakfast was a case of getting what you pay for and the Cultra Inn was very disappointing. We did not try the Spa."

Dobbins Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely place and great food"

Princetown Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"Owners were super helpful and friendly. Gave us great tips for our travel through Northern Ireland"

"Delightful stay. Wonderful staff. Beautiful hotel. Only (very minor) thing was my room (Wedgewood) didn't have any sockets by bed and only one other spare socket to use, which makes it hard when multiple things needing to charge"

Premier Inn Carrickfergus

"We love the location as it close to downtown Carrick, shops, restaurants and the old castle, which incidentally does great tours."

Ballylagan Organic Farm

10/10 Excellent
