Top Ballydugan Lake Hotel Reviews

Slieve Donard

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel,location and staff"

Holiday Inn Express Belfast City by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean with comfortable beds. The staff were polite. The only complaint ( if you can call it that) is that the coffee machine in the main area was closed by 10:30am. It would have been nice to come back and grab a coffee/hot chocolate and relax after a day of exploring"

Second Nature Belfast

10/10 Excellent

"Really enjoyed my stay here! Beautiful hotel with gorgeous decor and a great vibe. The staff were lovely and very helpful! A great location as well being walking distance to a lot of shops, restaurants, bars and sights. Would recommend staying here when visiting Belfast!"

The Fitzwilliam Hotel Belfast

10/10 Excellent

"Pros: close to the town center and the starting point of the hop on hop off bus tour. Several pubs with food within a few blocks walk. Cons: The mechanicals were giving the staff issues. The hot water system was off and on. The AC in the room was not working and since the hotel was at the crossroads of two main roads opening the window to get some cooler air made sleeping a bit difficult without earplugs. For us the duvets are always too hot so we had the housekeeper put just a flat sheet for a cover. There were no light blankets available so we purchased one and it improved our comfort. Overall a reasonable stay for 4 nights and the manager was very conciliatory but frustrated with the mechanical issues which she indicated had developed that week."

Avoca Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely welcome & recommendation for table for tea. Booked the larger room as a group of four as we were climbing Slieve Donard & room was clean, spacious & modern. Thanks for our stay."

Crowne Plaza Belfast by IHG

8/10 Good

"Good clean hotel and very friendly"

Haslem Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent all around. Top marks!"

Enniskeen Country House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful location, cozy beds, fantastic breakfast & staff."
