Hotels Near Culcavey Hall in Hillsborough

On arrival we were impressed by the decor. Staff at reception very nice. Room nice and modern. Was very disappointed with our lunch experience in the bar however. The chicken sandwich was in dry bread, with butter Mayo and chicken only. No garnish, no lettuce even in sandwich. Not what you’d expect from a 4* hotel! The next let down was the milk for my coffee which I had to order at the bar as no one came to check on us or clear dishes for some time. The milk was delivered in a cup because there were no milk jugs, in a 4* hotel! The staff were under pressure and were getting grief from one family waiting on their food so I didn’t add to the staffs stress. Pool is great but tiles are slippy and it’s on the cool side.

On my way home from Belfast City Hospital my friend treated me to lunch in this beautiful Tea Room. The lady who served us was efficient and friendly. Our sandwiches were delicious: a club sandwich and a Brie, grape and mango, my friend had soup and we both had tea in china cups. We couldn’t resist the delicious selection of desserts and had lemon meringue pie and a chocolate brownie. I loved the whole experience and look forward to my next visit.

Having stayed in the apartments several times on business trips, the flexibility of an apartment at hotel prices is just fantastic. The team have always been super helpful, dealing with anything including me missing a flight! The apartments are well stocked on cooking equipment, they are clean, quiet and have become a home from home when working in Belfast. I've never used the car park, but given there is one and the location, that just adds to the value for money. I would heartily recommend considering the apartments over the local hotels as this just makes a trip to Belfast that little bit easier with the flexibility of accomodation.

Very quiet place, a little distance from the city by car, it's a bit like a family hotel. We were too lazy to move the boxes when we stayed on the 3rd floor, so we just put them in the car and took the toiletries upstairs. This was a bit inconvenient. It was also inconvenient to switch between hot and cold water.

The room I stayed in was a business-style suite facing the main road. It was big and comfortable with a nice bathroom and tea/coffee facilities. There is free, covered parking at the back which was useful. The windows opened which was good as it was dry and hot in the room. I could not get the TV to work other than BBC World although eventually I managed to tweak the box and get it to work. The room furnishing was incredibly dark (wallpaper, curtains and light covers were all in dark material). I had to ask the reception to replace a broken bulb in one of the ceiling lights and the bedsit lights were so dark it was impossible to read by them. The cleaning of the room was a bit hit or miss and there were cigarette butts permanently stuck out of the external butt holder right by the front door. The housekeeper did pop by and apologise. The staff at reception were helpful and pleasant and when prompted sorted out the necessary issues.

Originally booked Obel 64 on Belfasts riverside for a short stay to celebrate my husband's birthday. Had our transport, restaurants and itinerary for our trip all pre planned and most of it pre booked prior to arriving only to have a message late the night before travelling to tell us they moved our reservation to another location due to ”unforseen circumstances” no other explanation. St Thomas Hall was the opposite side of the city centre to where we should have been staying and there was apparently no other options for relocating us and it was also non refundable. I therefore spent the night prior to travelling, rather than getting a good night sleep, cancelling/amending all our travel arrangements for the whole trip, and reorganising our restaurants and itinerary. Although they upgraded our room to include an extra bedroom, I ended up spending much more money because of the additional transport and cancellation/amendment fees. The good bits - reception staff I spoke to to get key code was friendly and polite, accessing the apartment was easy, the apartment itself was spacious, modern and clean. I had organised a birthday package on arrival for extra which included prosecco, a cake, balloons and banners which was very nicely done 👍, the beds and sofas were comfortable and the bathroom and kitchen had everything we needed, there were some take away and sit in food establishments nearby including a mini coop, regular buses to city centre from bus stop just down from apartment. The not so good bits - no longer had the river view or the main attractions within a reasonable walking distance for my 9 year old son (which were the whole reason I booked Obel 64), ALL the internal doors were so loud/squeaky and no door stoppers provided to prop them open which was not so good through the night, there were only 2 pillows provided per double bed and may as well not have had any as they were so flat and thin, one of the bedroom door handles was loose and threatening to fall off, as the property is on a main road there was so much loud traffic right into the early hours and the windows didn't do much to dampen the noise (should have brought my ear plugs). Overall experience was very mixed. The apartment itself was comfortable enough and served the needs we had for our short stay, however, it's absolutely not the property or location I would have booked for our particular stay and having read other reviews it seems to be a regular thing which is very worrying and it was a very stressful experience. On that basis I'd be wary booking again.

Couldn't fault this hotel. Absolutely brilliant, great central location and 2 mins from the train. Staff where great, room was spotlessly clean. Perfect night away.

Good location. Helpful staff - we left a wallet in the room and they were very efficient at finding it and keeping it for us. I parked on the street for free overnight and downloaded the JustPark app so that I could start paying for my space from 8am and I didn't even have to leave my room to put money in the meter!

A very well-located hotel. The lobby also looks quite nice! Check-in was smooth. The room was spacious; since we booked a family room, there was also a sofa. Overall, we were very satisfied with the room. However, it's worth mentioning that the sink in the bathroom was clogged, which made it impossible to use, and it was also leaking. The soundproofing was not good; we could hear people talking in the next room. There were a lot of people checking out in the morning. I hope there can be improvements!
