The hotel is a small hotel, the staff are very helpful and friendly. The room was adequate for our needs. It was a small double room., bed was clean and very comfortable Towels were fresh and fluffy..the hotel was family owned but has changed hands in the last year.. the style and decor is old fashioned style which is quaint. Siobhan the receptionist was very helpful. Breakfast was lovely and plentiful, good choices to suit all tastes. Portaferry is a lovely wee town the local people are friendly.

A lovely stay with lovely staff. Room 10 with excellent views over the Strangford Lough was just wonderful. We would love to come again. The evening meal was very tasty. We also so enjoyed popping to the Dumigan’s pub just around the corner, as featured in the Lady In The Wall TV series with its really friendly regulars. There was good wifi despite an indication when booking that there was none. This allowed us to listen to Radio Caroline's internet broadcasts. Quite apt as its just 33 miles to where their Mi Amigo ship was equipped out in 1964!

Location is ideal and peaceful, staff very friendly and helpful. Food was excellent and tasty.

The only thing that could be improved was location and shortage of electrical sockets, there was one behind door which is not really helpful, firstly if i use the hairdryer theres no mirror and also kettle had to be plugged in there to boil. I found a socket underneath the dressing table so its not accessible

The hotel is located right on the seafront and my room even had a view over the lough and to the ferry. There are seats outside and you can sit and watch the world go by. Food in the hotel was very good quality both for the evening meal and the breakfast.

The restaurant and breakfast room was a bit basic in terms of decor. Melamine tables and bare walls.

Location was good staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Lovely room really comfortable bed. Tasty breakfast

No food available after 7.45pm. We were attending a funeral and when we returned we were unable to have a meal. No where in Portaferry to have something to eat either

Full Irish breakfast was superb. Enjoyed dinner too. The staff are extremely friendly and pleasant. Location right by the lough and the ferry was amazing. Lots to do in the area. Smallish room but very comfortable and had everything you might need. Would definitely stay again.

Dare I say the weather!

loved the location near the ferry - which we went on - and we enjoyed doing the heritage tour. Also we went to Mount Stewart and had a wonderful day there in house and gardens.

What you should dislike is that Booking dot com have a website section offering things to do while in Portaferry. Number 1 is a day trip to Giants' Causeway. Pretty poor attraction for Portaferry!

Very quaint and old fashioned but beautiful hotel. Location fantastic and beautiful views from the room.

Mix up about check out time, told at check in it was noon but it was 11. Also asked to pay a good bill when we didn’t eat in restaurant but staff were fine, clearly just an error.

It's a small hotel right on the waterfront with bar and restaurant. Great staff and excellent food. We had a sea front room which was quite spacious and lovely view. Nice bathroom and comfortable bed. Breakfast was fine with a selection of cooked options.

Car Parking is on street, but free, with some space immediately in front and plenty of other options nearby.
