Was lovely and clean beautifully decorated, bed was incredibly comfortable.

It was New Year’s Eve so expected that the Bar was going to be extremely busy, but didn’t like that we had to walk through the bar and out the back to get to our room, as we had to fight a crowd to get to the room and getting past the door staff was quiet hard as well trying to explain every time we went to re enter the building that we where actually staying their. Would definitely return at a quieter time to be able to avail of the restaurant as well as the kitchen closed early. The breakfast was beautiful and all staff was very helpful.

location was perfect for starting our drive on the antrim coast. we arrived dinner time saturday and parking was a bit full but we found a spot. do make a reservation at ownies if you plan to eat there, it was very popular! we ended up at mayor indian which was fantastic (thanks to the staff for the rec). the pub is also very popular in the evenings and will be loud until closing at 1am on weekends. we enjoyed a bit of the fun but were also ok to head to bed without too much interference in the back apartment. but if youre a light sleeper with an early start make note.

the room and decor were great and i know its tough with coastal weather, but a bleach spray for a bit of shower mold would be easy.

Beautifully decorated and quite unique, it was also very comfortable and in a great waterfront location. We were disappointed by not being able to make breakfast as we were leaving for the ferry, but this was more than made up for by the takeaway BLTs prepared for us by the chef. We ate at Ownies the pub next door and had a lovely meal and evening with live music. Would definitely stay there again.

Breakfast starting too late to make the 10.30 ferry from Belfast.

The rooms were lovely - spacious and we all liked the decor, most unusual. We had planned to explore other places to eat in Carrickfergus but the food in "Ownies" the bar next door was so good that we ate there every night.

For a bar that did such wonderful evening food, felt the breakfasts weren`t up to much. Plenty of it, but yoghurts, bit of fresh fruit and a tomato and/or mushroom in the cooked breakfasts would have been nice.

We were on a wee mission in Carrick, stranded inlaws kind and found Walters Place on booking.com. We have been to Carrick many times and have actually spent time in the bar before but didn't know Walters was there. The room was spacious and very clean. Breakfast was very nice. The staff were good craic too. We will definitely be returning. Can't complain about anything.

There was nothing we didn't like and would just say that the fry needs beans 😉

We loved everything. From the shower to the comfy bed. I truly enjoy the routine of housekeeping and how thoughtful the staff is. If you are travelling with children, Ownies Bar and Bristo appear to be pretty crowded at night, but the sound isolation from the rooms is pretty good. Live music was a plus! Breakfast is offered here, and I was impressed that after a long night, it was perfect in the morning. Delicious breakfast with traditional bread. We also had the opportunity to eat dinner here, and it was fantastic. The location is another bonus: easy parking, seafront, close to the castle (we walked there). It's close to Belfast and not far from the airport with a car. We absolutely want to come back!

It was separate from the bar. Rooms were huge and clean. Great views. Very central. Breakfast was lovely.

Breakfast was served in the bar after 9am. Had to miss breakfast one morning as we had a booking outside Belfast at 10:40am. Didn’t realise that booking restaurant for evening meal was only option. Pub was empty but waiting time was over an hour for food.

Spacious, clean room. Had mostly everything we needed but I think for the room price individual toiletries (both shampoo and conditioner) would've been appreciated. The shower gel/shampoo combo isn't great on the hair! Next door to a pub so expected some noise but it wasn't too bad. Staff were lovely, breakfast was good. Location is great with a lovely view if you have a front-facing room. Decor was a bit chipped/tired/dated and the ripped wallpaper by the entrance door needs replacing.

The lady who showed us to our room was so warm and welcoming. She showed us to our room, how to work everything and explained where to go for breakfast. Nothing was too much trouble! Best welcome we've ever had! I'm just sad I forgot her name, to be able to write it in the review. We were visiting for a wedding, but I know carrick well and the location is perfect. Ideal for shops, pubs, food, and the castle. Train station is only a short walk and so it's so easy to get in and out of belfast. The rooms are gorgeous, my other half is a plumber and admired the no expense spared Bathroom! Decoration was great. Bed was very comfortable. The room had everything we needed. Breakfast was gorgeous, too. We had an ulster fry. Ownies bar next door is a top quaint bar. Thanks for a great stay!

Nothing, it was all perfect.

We had such a lovely stay here! The room was absolutely gorgeous and massive, with a really nice bathroom with a large shower. Everything was in perfect condition and it was just so beautiful, I was amazed by the luxury for this price. Kettle, fridge and hairdryer were available in the room. TV had many channels and Netflix available. Breakfast was delicious. The bar next door has a small dinner menu but upstairs there is a restaurant where we had an amazing dinner, definitely recommended! The staff was incredibly kind and helpful and we could leave our luggage after checkout in a safe spot so we could go explore the castle.

Honestly nothing, everything was wonderful and we are recommending this hotel to everyone looking to go to the area!
