I had booked the hotel for a night away with my now fiancé, we had gotten engaged, it was a beautiful day. I had communicated with staff via booking.com my plans they were fully on board; they had helped make the special occasion unforgettable. I had originally queried with them about a beautiful bouquet of flowers, but managed to do this independently; the staff allowed the flowers to be delivered to the hotel and they had put them in our hotel room ready for arrival. Additionally, they had decorated the room with balloons and left a card congratulating us on our engagement, and even went as far as to leave us chocolate and prosecco which we thoroughly enjoyed and really appreciated. I couldn't thank the staff enough for the extraordinary night. It was unforgettable and beautiful.

An additional pool table in the bar area would have been nice haha, but otherwise a perfect stay.

The three bed room was to expectations. Breakfast was better the second day “Ulster Fry” it was more the experience for my family members, as for dinner, the meal we wanted Guinness pie, had all gone, so we had the fish and chips, again it was for the experience for family members who came from Sweden....

First day breakfast “Ulster Fry” it seemed it was kepted in the oven and dried out, as for dinner, the meal we wanted Guinness pie? it had all gone, must of been a popular dish,shame that the chef didnt make more off, again it was for the experience for family members who came from Sweden....

The location was beautiful. The room was very clean and well appointed. The staff was not only super friendly, but super helpful. We checked in on a Sunday. The staff recommended an excellent restaurant, but because it was Sunday, they called to make sure it was open and even made a reservation for us. Later that night, they provided us glasses and ice for our room. Breakfast the next day was excellent. Beautiful town, Beautiful staff in the restaurant as well.

My only negative is that our room was a bit close to the road. I'm sure it is because the inn was booked and we were late to arrive. The room was comfortable enough, so there was no need to sleep with the windows open

Large family room and dogs appreciated the dog treats for them on arrival. Lovely food.

Only area for dogs to go to toilet is in the car park with a little grass on the edge. With cars coming and going and also 2 tractors with trailers numerous times, I think there should be a dog zone area to keep them safe. Outside patio area near the entrance to bar which allows dogs is lovely but I would recommend a gate on it to keep dogs safe from cars coming and going as the access is on the road. No lunchtime menu available. Room was way too hot and had to ask reception to switch it off as you can't do that from your room.

We have been to the Inn on the Coast a few times now. The staff are so welcoming, their dog friendly approach is fantastic. The room is great especially as it has dog bowls with treats much appreciated by out dog! We ate in the bar, glad to see it opened again, food was pub grub style, very tasty and not overly expensive as can be with hotels, and again very welcoming to our dog, love the doggie menu!

I honestly can’t say I disliked anything! If I could suggest anything I would say take out the bathtub and replace with a walk in shower, I know this is personal preference!

We took advantage of a great rate for an overnight stay. On arrival the receptionist Debbie welcomed us in a very friendly manner and made us feel very valued. Due to the time of year the hotel was only operating a few nights a week which meant we didn’t get to experience the bar facilities and bistro. However the staff more than made up for that to the extent Debbie had already allocated us interconnecting rooms without having to make a request. The rooms were large and warm. (Temp outside was 2degrees). We were booked at a local restaurant that evening and Debbie booked a taxi for us. Breakfast next morning always a choice of continental or cooked (or both). Neither disappointed. Our dining staff member was extremely friendly and helpful. We had no complaints about our short stay and will hopefully visit later in the year when all facilities are up and running.

Only the fact the bar and bistro were closed but that was due to seasonal opening

Definitely more than a 3 star hotel! Staff all very polite, helpful and competent. Rooms spacious, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good quality, ample choice and service excellent. Evening menu not extensive but choices more than adequate, we enjoyed dinner both nights with 10% off for residents an added bonus. Drinks reasonable priced and staff service very good. We were pleasantly surprised by the standard of this quaint, clean and homely hotel close to both Portrush & Portstewart. The hotel can't control the weather but certainly provided us with a comfortable and relaxed environment to chill out for a few days.

No negatives

We made our booking to go to see the airshow so the location wad ideal. Plenty of parking. We ate in the restaurant both nights food was good. Staff were very friendly. There is a discount given to hotel guests who eat in the restaurant.

The room we had was very dated. I hadn't realised their were more updated rooms. Hopefully this one will be done soon. The ceiling had cracking paint and the window needs repair. Having no lift could be an issue for some people. Breakfast was good but our son only really eats fruit at breakfast and there was none available. To be fair on 2nd morning I asked for strawberries and they got some. I would stay again but would probably request a revamped room. Hopefully the beds and pillows were upgraded.

The main receptionist we spoke to was amazing! So helpful and friendly, she had phoned us before we arrived today that they had got the goats milk we had asked for. This made it a lot less stressful as my son can't have cow's milk. The location was very good and it was very easy to get parked. Dog friendly rooms were on the ground floor and it was convenient to get in and out. The dog friendly restaurant was good, it was good to be able to take our dog with us, we were given a bowl with water for her.

The menu was okay, not a lot of choice, but the food was tasty. Staff were attentive. The breakfast menu could be extended a little, the bacon wasn't nice and there were no fruit options at all. The hot containers did not have a lot of food, the two times we had breakfast so it was a limited choice. However there was an option to order additional things and the food was very hot. As the floor in the bedroom didn't have any carpet at all, it was noisy with the dogs nails. The bathroom could do with some care, the bottom of the architrave on the door was all rotten. There was no bath mat in the bath and it was slippery.

The hotel seems to have had a complete refurbishment making it stylish and comfortable. We had our spaniel with us in a dog friendly double room and our children (18 & 19) were upgraded from a twin to a family room which was huge! (2 double beds, 2 singles, various tables, chairs and a sofa big enough for a football team!) Staff were friendly and the atmosphere is very relaxed. Rooms were clean, tea, coffee and biscuits were complimentary and the shower pressure was good. The food was good (think pub grub) and breakfast had lots of choice, dog bowls are provided if your dog wanted to help you finish your sausages in the morning which is a nice touch.

Not really a problem unless it's raining, but, dogs are not allowed through the main part of the hotel which means you don't have access to some of the nicest parts of the hotel such as the main restaurant with your furry friend, you will need to exit the hotel and walk around the building to access the dog friendly dinning area which is more reminiscent of a pub.
