Liked: Staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The stag were friendly , but the hotel itself felt very tired
Perfect location for ferry crossings. Small, quaint, safe & quiet hotel with wonderful , attentive staff. Food was excellent, home cooked. Right in the water with beautiful view of harbor.
Clearly the folks here are working hard to bring this lovely old inn back to life. A few kinks to be worked out, but we enjoyed our night there. The food in restaurant was very good, if a bit limited on item availability.
The service is amazing, they're all so friendly. The kitchen is excellent and there are often events in the hotel going on. On my arrival they had live music by local bands. Felt home in the area immediately. Don't be fooled by the 2-star rating, it's a simple facility but with everything else, they're a 4-star for me!
So close to the ferry port..Nice little hotel with sea views. Food in the restaurant was very good had prawns in garlic starter husband had smoked mackerel pate. To follow I had ham egg chips. Gammon was huge
Husband had seafood pasta with garlic bread. We also had a cocktail each. Altogether a good stay. Room very comfortable. Would recommend to anyone going on the ferry to Dublin as an overnight stay
The owner was friendly and very helpful during checkin. The hoel is undergoing renovations at the hotel moment but these did not interfere with our stay.
Only stayed overnight but it's a nice place, in a very nice location, room was large & bath was great. I didn't have a chance to dine there but will on my return trip.
owners obviously doing extensive refurbishment, friendly staff, helpful. Evening meal great choice and good food.Comfortable beds, very clean. Plan to stay next time in the area for the ferry etc...
From the minute of arrival this hotel gave me nothing but positive vibes, the staff are excellent, rooms are comfortable, clean and tidy , food is very good and I am sad that our short stay has come to an end . We will be back.
We stayed as a fanily of 3 with 2 dogs and it was just gorgeous. Views are amazing and really dog friendly. The breakfast was gresh hot and cooked oerfectly. Would 100£ come back again. The staff were great too. Thank you!!
We had booked a family room and were pleasantly surprised when this was actually 2 rooms with a private connecting hall with storage space and shower room. Looks like it could be used as separate rooms with shared shower room also. Rooms were clean and beds were comfortable. Reception friendly and a great choice of options for breakfast. We used as a base as were kayaking for 2 days, so didn’t have the opportunity to try the evening meals. Their website did state that they were newer owners and in process of updating. Doing a good job of getting through it from what we saw. Might not suit someone looking for a generic bland chain hotel experience.

Great stay
Room had a gorgeous view, staf was great and location is right next to the start of a beautiful walking path through a park along sea cliffs and beautiful views of the ocean
Extremely friendly, comfortable, and dog friendly. The food in the bar was properly home cooked and obviously not from a packet.
While it's a bit of a walk to the docks, the hotel is right next to the Breakwater country park, allowing for scenic walks or runs.
Staff were friendly and helpful. Nice room. Scenic location.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
Staff and hotel was great! I would just clean it up a bit outside to make it more inviting. This is feed back from family memebers that live in Holyhead when they picked us up. Overall great place great beer.
Great position. Very helpful and friendly staff. Great food. The room was spacious but the beds were painfully soft and the shower was an anemic, cold dribble.
