An old hotel with a lot of character and could do with a little tender loving face lift. Comfortable and pleasant stay.
4.1
It’s definitely the staff that makes this stay so nice, the hotel has obviously seen better days but they have been redecorating and making a very good effort to improve your stay.
One lovely thing as well was how cozy everywhere was so nice to be warm.
The chief for the breakfast has to be praised for the perfect eggs in the morning I’m veggie so didn’t try the bacon or sausages but hubby was pleased with them.
Staff are all young but very helpful nothing too much for them.
It was very reasonably priced lovely area never been before the sea was spectacular to watch.
Very mixed age range from youngsters to us oldies warm welcome from Jodie on reception which always make a good start to your stay.
4.1
Superb location with fabulous views. Attentive staff, excellent breakfast which included pancakes & haggis!
We’ll definitely be back.

Beautiful location with outstanding views. Very friendly staff. The port itself is a beautiful fishing harbour with a lovely pub/restaurant. If walking to the port harbour from the hotel you need to be quite agile as it's a cliff walk but the steps are very safe and there's plenty of benches to rest on along the way. Very amenable hotel.
4.1
A large hotel dating back to earlier and different times but appeared to be well maintained in both the public areas and the room which was clean and well equipped. Bed was comfortable and a small point but important for me, decent wall lights for bedtime reading. Bathroom was spotless although I'm not great on shower curtains with a standard bath.
Breakfast service was good, cooked items served to order, plenty of fresh fruit salad items and choice of cereals, yoghurt, croissants as well as toast. Preserves in the little plastic tubs but that's just me.
Check in and out quick and efficient. Parking fine but might struggle if hotel was fully occupied.
Situated on headland with lovely views, a path with steps leads down to the harbour.

Stayed here while on a motorcycle tour with the mrs…. After 10hr in the saddle it was just what we needed.. a smile and a key at check in then left to our own devices.. no hassle no problem parking the bike outside the doors.. just perfect and we will be back.

Shortage of staff, breakfast below average
4.1
Arrived after 21.00 in readiness for a 05.30 start for the Cairnryan ferry (20 minutes drive away). Very warm welcome by friendly staff who rustled me up a sandwich even tho the kitchen was closed. Fantastic views, pet friendly, great value for money. Rooms and decor are a little tired but clean, tidy and comfortable. Recommended. Portpatrick a lovely small harbour town.

We had a lovely stay, we had the superior room with sea view, if anything needs updated in the hotel it’s the windows we could feel a draft coming in, big thick curtains so we closed over the worst windows to keep the draft out, hotel lovely nice bar area and games room, we had dinner and it was lovely and so was the breakfast, I would stay here again lovely views from the room we had.
4.1
Nice hotel on a perfect location. Our room was an attic room with a turret and a fabulous sea view. The room was comfortable and clean but a little tired (condensation is obviously a problem resulting in some water marks on the walls and some peeling paint) but it certainly didn't distract from our stay. Breakfast was excellent. We didn't eat dinner at the hotel but did have a few drinks in the bar which was warm, comfortable and well stocked. I would definitely recommend the hotel and would happily stay here again.

Would stay again
4.1
This hotel has amazing views in the position above Portpatrick. Freindly staff and good facilities, I would stay here again at the drop of a hat. Food was great, enjoyable stay.
4.1
Stayed at this hotel for 2 nights with mum for her birthday. All staff we spoke to were lovely.
Room was clean, quiet and as expected.
Only slight disappointment was the evening meal as they had a set menu and the food was average.
I’d expected the a la carte menu as per previous visit.
Second night we ate at a lovely pub in the harbour area so was no big deal as the hotel is within easy walking distance.
4.1
Comfortable and good value accommodation.
4.1
We had a great stay and the Hotel was as expected. We arrived sadly after the Restaurant had closed, our issue not the Hotels. But not many options to eat after 9pm locally.
Will definitely stay again.
4.1
Excellent stay, room was lovely
4.1
Lovely double room. Good value for money
4.1
We spent 4 nights at the hotel, luckily we booked a room with a sea view as views over the harbour were spectacular.
The room was clean and the bed comfortable but the fittings in the bathroom let it down as the shower was connected to the taps and was outdated and hard to control.
The staff in the restaurant were polite and the food was good but the service was a bit slow.
We would certainly consider using this hotel again.
4.1
Interior decor is first rate. Bedroom space very limited. Window in bedroom very draughty, the wind was blowing the curtain away from the frame. The service was good after a few mishaps. The food was good. The view from the room was first class.
4.1
On first sight this hotel looks fantastic unfortunately that impression does not stand close scrutiny. The company Web site shows lovely modern bedrooms well my single room was nothing like. It was very tired and old fashioned with an old uncomfortable sprung bed and a very tired bathroom with a heated towel rail which had old red insulation tape holding it together
I spent 3 nights at the hotel and the bedroom received no services at all
No clean towels or a clean up and on my leaving after showing hotel staff the heated towel rail was exactly the same with no effort to repair
The quality of the breakfast I also thought was poor with what I thought was scrambled eggs looking and smelling disgusting
All in all a large underinvested hotel that did not supply what the company Web site shows
Once again as a single traveler was given the old and tired single room
Very poor all round
4.1
We like the most the beautiful vieuw. And the comfort in the room. The badroom. The comfort beds. Friendley to the dog.
And very clean.
Beautiful walk near the hotel
4.1
Lovely hotel in a beautiful setting. They even provided perfect weather!
Would difinitely go again, hopefully next year, what ever the weather.
4.1
Would return for the views over the port but on a room only basis. Food , both at breakfast and dinner was a total letdown.
4.1
Hotel looks nice and inviting when you enter.
Room was comfortable, nice view looking out over the sea, bathroom was slightly dated and bath needed a good clean.
Breakfast service was a disappointment, self service “hot” option was lukewarm and of poor quality, crockery was dirty.
Would look at other properties near by first if we were staying in Portpatrick again.
4.1
Very god location,friendly staff and great room with all facilities.Pleasant village with great community feel.
4.1
The location is the best thing about the hotel!
It is very very tired. I had a single room, bathroom contained a bath with hand held shower hose...I may aswell have poured a glass of water over myself there was so little pressure from it.
It seems some rooms have shower pumps....the room next to me did as I was awoken at 6:30am when the occupants had their showers.
When I mentioned to reception when checking out the response was "Some rooms have pumps!"
I travel a lot and can't actually remember the last time I said this but I definitely wouldn't go back or recommend.
4.1
Iconic site with excellent view.
I would suggest adding an element of variety into the daily dinner menu
4.1
Bathroom / Shower very dated needs upgrade, shower did not work for a period of time. Breakfast was a joke had to wait for 15 minutes for the hot plates to be replenished, other guests waited for 25minutes, food was cold when it did arrive, 4 hot plates for a hotel this size is inadequate , had to chase around to find someone to ask for tea and coffee.
4.1
We enjoyed our visit to the Portpatrick Hotel. The hotel sits on a commanding site and the views of the surrounding area are amazing, inviting you to explore what the village has to offer...even on a wet and windy day!
The hotel although beautiful, is a wee bit tired in places, the food average, but the service is excellent. Staff are friendly, informative and keen to promote the hotel and the area.
The hotel is currently up for sale. With a bit of investment, it could be amazing!
4.1
Customer service was poor. Poor dinner served had to replace it! Dessert was cold had to send back! Bar service poor! I asked if they had Macallan whisky and the Asian bar tender suggested I visually checked all their displayed stock behind the bar; he didn't seem to know what whisky was available!
4.1
We had a lovely stay. Breakfast and evening meals were very tasty. Every member of staff we met were kind and work hard to make your stay enjoyable. We are already looking to book here again for a short break.
4.1
Lovely friendly place to stay. Clean and tidy if slightly tired in places. Very dog friendly and fantastic views from the terrace at the front down over the bay.
4.1
Good value hotel
Decorative refurb satisfactory
Fabric of hotel quite tired
4.1
Beautiful hotel but our room was basic, bed was very uncomfortable and was cold. Bedding felt damp. Meals were poor with frozen and not fresh fish being used. Breakfast meal was cold and of poor quality. Decoration within the hotel was lovely and it was an impressive size with amazing views. Staff were all very lovely and very helpful but feel the owners of the hotel were doing everything on the cheap.
