Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has a lovely location in Millbrook Lodge, NI, offering amazing views and a pleasant ambiance. The rooms were a bit tired and grubby with limited internet access, yet the staff were great, happy, friendly, and always had a smile. The dining experience was a mix of tasty dishes and disappointments. Overall, the hotel provides a nice stay with a few drawbacks.
The hotel offered a mixed experience with clean and comfortable rooms after upgrading despite the initial darkness and lack of amenities. The service was exceptional, going beyond expectations. The location was convenient for exploring the region but lacked in-room dining options. The overall value for money was slightly compromised by the need for upgrades and the disappointing dining experience.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The location was perfect for exploring the County Down area and taking leisurely walks around the beautiful grounds, but the dining experience left much to be desired. The service from the friendly and helpful staff was excellent, adding to the overall pleasant experience.
