Great stay
Pros:

This was a last minute booking for us having a night off with the kids. The room was lovely and food was incredible. The service was great and the beds were comfortable. We've been recommending to friends and family.

Beautiful and relaxing 🌳
Pros:

Having spent a few days with friends in Belfast celebrating a wedding, I was gutted to be told my flight home was cancelled...however, being given the choice of a night at the Dunadry Hotel turned a stressful experience into a pleasure. The room was spotless, the bed was comfy, the staff were lovely and the location was gorgeous. Highly recommended, I would love to come back for a stay in one of the spa rooms!

Disappointing
Pros:

Nice room . Lovely selection of starters but soup flavourless. Main course meats very dried out and that was early on in service. The selection of veg was ok but the girl serving gave the smallest portions of everything. A lot of staff standing around the restaurant but hard to get their attention . Desserts very synthetic. In all I would not return .

Wedding Venue
Pros:

An outstanding venue for my daughter's wedding. Although the ceremony was held inside, it was still very special. Staff made everything go to plan and flowed the whole day. Food was delicious, could not fault anything.

Lovely hotel
Pros:

Beautiful hotel and surrounds. No leisure facilities were available and given £170.00 to stay in the hotel alone was not value for money.

Part of a 4 night coach party.
Pros:

This hotel is outstanding, from the second we arrived to the morning of departure, everything was exceptional. My room 126, was spacious and had everything one could ask for. 2 dark spots on the carpet was irrelevant. The bed was comfortable and it was a pleasure to have the peacock alarm at 6 am. Food was beyond 5star quality, plentiful and served to perfection. Breakfast was of a similar standard and for once everything was hot, even the eggs. There was plenty of choice if you didn't want the hot stuff. The staff were so accommodating and to mention anyone would do an injustice to the others. The other facilities the hotel provides are the best I have seen.
From my experience this is the best hotel I have stayed in , in over the 40+ years I having been travelling.
Pity I couldn't add an extra star and I do hope I can return with more friends.

Wedding Meal Highly Recommended
Pros:

The Dunadry hosted our wedding meal on the 4th August. It was a small wedding of some 20 guests. And we booked the River Suite a beautiful wood panelled room over looking the river. A beautiful location.
Leading up to the Wedding we dealt with Sarah Jane The Events organiser. It was essential to be able to communicate and meet the same person each time and provided continuity and reassurance.
She was extremely Professional, and prompt in all her dealings. And her prompt reply to our initial query ( unlike other hotels) was one of the reasons we booked the Dunadry.
On the day the food was delicious, with a generous amount. We received many compliments from our guests. The wine and other drinks delicious. And the service was extremely good, friendly and personable and we felt genuine with a shared joy in the occasion .
The Dunadry itself is beautiful, elegant, whilst being comfortable relaxed. Again some guests who had not been before commented on the high standards of the hotel. It was also good value.
A wedding day is a very special day in anyones life and the Dunadry hotel and staff were essential in providing us with the very best and ensuring we had a day to remember. Highly recommended.

Fabulous Hotel / Events Location
Pros:

We were there for a Family Wedding. The event from start to finish had clearly been excellently planned, prepared and co-ordinated. The day went off without a hitch with all the Staff providing fantastic, efficient and cheerful service. The Wedding Planner was excellent and nothing was a problem. The food, the rooms and the grounds make it a superb venue for a nice break but especially for a Wedding. The proximity of the Airport was also a bonus for travelling guests. This is a Hotel not to be missed and I cannot praise everything about it enough.

Beware the Peacocks at Night
Pros:

Lovely hotel but sleep disturbed by the hotel peacocks that were nesting on the balcony and roaming around, through the night, and then squawking in the early hours waking everyone up and disturbing rest, so very loud.
