即将过气的网红安静酒店
Pros:

专门为黑暗树篱开的酒店，位置极佳，停车方便，早餐不错，环境非常安静

Cons:

再红的景点也有过气的一天，酒店也是。《权游》完结已经好几年了，黑暗树篱的游客大不如以前。酒店的维护和设施服务在退化，浴巾虽然是洗过的，但洗不掉的黑脚印也不换新浴巾。楼道有味道了也消除不掉，开不久了。

Pros:

Romantisch gelegenes Familienhotel. Viele Möglichkeiten die Zeit zu genießen. Rund ums Hotel schöne Spaziermöglichkeiten (nicht nur die Hedges ;-) )
Personal sehr freundlich, Frühstück und Abendessen mehr als ausreichend.

Unbedingt auch Ruby den Papagei begrüßen - wirklich ein Erlebnis :-)

Pros:

Bit out in nowhere but right next to The Dark Hedges. We waited until 7pm to wander across to the hedges and it was deserted, lucky us. Had a nice meal and our room was huge with a super bathroom. Parked our motorcycles right outside reception and had no security worries.

Cons:

Nothing

Leuk hotel
Pros:

Locatie: bij the Dark Hedges.
Vriendelijke medewerkers.
Mogelijkheid te dineren.

Cons:

Hotel was moeilijk te vinden, ondanks navigatie.
Geen verduisterende gordijnen in kamer, waardoor het om 4 uur ‘s nachts al licht was in de kamer. Klein tweepersoonsbed.
