Reviews and Ratings
I had a rather mixed experience at this hotel. On one hand, the dining in the Oak restaurant was exceptional, particularly the breakfast. However, there were significant cleanliness issues in the room and common areas, which really detracted from the overall experience. The location offers beautiful views, but despite the lovely setting, the hotel feels dated and in need of a thorough refresh.
I had a delightful overnight stay at this hotel, highlighted by wonderful service from the staff and breathtaking views during my time at the spa. The dining experience was enjoyable, particularly the attentive service at dinner, although the breakfast could use some improvements. Overall, I loved the experience, but the spa facilities could be updated to keep everything looking fresh.
The hotel has a wonderful atmosphere with a cosy real fire in the reception, making it a comfortable stay even during busy events. The staff was highly efficient and attentive, especially during the self-service breakfast. However, the dining experience was noticeably disappointing, particularly with the limited menu and quality at the restaurant. Overall, while the facilities were enjoyable, the dining could use significant improvement.
My experience at this hotel was mixed. The location is absolutely stunning with breathtaking views, and the staff were quite friendly and welcoming. However, the dining experience left a lot to be desired, especially the breakfast which was disappointing. The service in the restaurant was also hit or miss, which was frustrating at times.
The Slieve Donard Hotel has a stunning setting, with breathtaking views and modern amenities that mingle beautifully with its historic charm. While the accommodations are impressive, the food service left much to be desired, making dining a bit of a letdown. The attentive staff, especially at the front desk, contributed positively to the overall experience, while some areas showed moments of inexperience that need addressing. Overall, it's a place with great potential, just requiring some fine-tuning in service consistency.
