Excellent two nights at the Salt house hotel , first time there but hope to return many more times.
Anne, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Relaxing stay at the Salthouse Hotel.

Enjoyable stay at the Salthouse Hotel in Ballycastle. Room was large and comfortable and very clean. Decor throughout the hotel was lovely and allthe public areas were spotlessly clean. Breakfast was cooked to order and very good. The hotel sits in a prominent position above the town with amazing views from the restaurants.

Jacinta, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful location, spa open 10-6 and xtra charge.

Great accommodations, comfortable rooms, very large room and bathroom, wonderful breakfast included in stay. Would like to see the hotel offer guests access to the outdoor hot tub and saunas free of charge until 10/11pm. This is standard at a spa hotel. The spa charges 💷 for guests to access amenities. The amenities close quite early as well, which is unfortunate.
Lisa, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

From start to finish the customer service was of a high standard - staff very attentive - food and drinks exceptional and breakfast was a delight - the attention to detail really made the stay. If I was to criticise this hotel it would be that the rooms and the main restaurant do not have air conditioning - we were however provided with a fan. The spa, staff and treatments were excellent- despite renovations in place. Would highly recommend this hotel and have already booked to come back.

Had another amazing stay. Staff hotel facilities all 2nd to none. Rooms are spacious & spotlessly clean. My only grip is the pillows. They are way to hard for me. I personally prefer a soft pillow but would not let this deter me from returning.
Jacqueline, 2-night trip

Such a wonderful stay here with easy, accessible parking. The staff were friendly and we were able to have plenty gluten free menu options. We also enjoyed the onsite spa (pre booked) which had the best sauna I’ve been in in a long time; WITH ocean views! Highly recommend staying here!

The room Was extremely warm with no apparent way to reduce the temperature! Spa was fully booked during our stay to even use the hot tub 😞 it was our 20th wedding anniversary and a little complimentary drink or surprise in the room would have been nice….

10/10 Exceptional

We had a perfect stay at the Salthouse. It has a lovely atmosphere. From the welcoming staff and delicious food. Superb breakfast, we loved the presentation. The bedroom was large with a super comfy bed and a very well equipped big modern shower room. All so clean.. The views are amazing over Rathlin Island and Fair head. We'll be back

Very enjoyable stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Salthouse. Our room was very spacious with a lovely big bathroom and very comfortable bed. We had a meal in the main restaurant which was very good value and delicious. What also impressed us was breakfast served to your table meaning it was freshly cooked and hot. We will definitely return and recommend it to our friends.

6/10 Good

As a late check in i watched the one person at reception deal with a telephone reservation for almost 20 minutes.....when i was finally checked in...the room temperature was 24c with no A/C. They did provide a fan but it took ages for the room to cool down. At very least the windows should have been opened.

My family loved staying at The Salthouse! It is a beautiful hotel overlooking the ocean with nice sized rooms and bathrooms. We tried both restaurants and they were both wonderful. The towels in the bathroom were the best towels I’ve used ever! I’m going to look them up and buy them. The staff was so nice and welcoming. We literally had a perfect stay here. The location was also perfect for us as it’s right next to all of the scenic locations on the causeway coast, it took just a few minutes to get to each one: carrick-a-rede, giants causeway, dunluce castle, dark hedges, and more. Highly highly recommend!

Lovely hotel, our first time staying here. Brilliant atmosphere for dinner with live music, cocktails and great food. Also enjoyed lunch at the lookout restaurant. Staff were fantastic, really friendly and helpful. Beautiful sunrise this morning over the cliffs. Very relaxing break.
