Myself, husband and 3 kids used this hotel on our way down to Co. Kerry and on our way back up to Belfast. It is on the main N8 Road, really handy for weary travellers! We wished we had spent our holiday in it. Having stayed in many hotels worldwide, we were really impressed. It was beautifully decorated all the... more

What can I say? A marvelous stay at the Horse and Jockey! I was greeted with a warm welcome and shown to a beautiful room. The spa and gym are well equipped for a serious work out or just a relaxing splash in the pool. Breakfast was delicious- the service in the restaurant outstanding. Thank you for a relaxing and... more

Wonderful Hotel, lovely food! The hotel has been renovated since my last stay about 2 years ago and is beautiful! As a regular business traveller it is rare to find hotels other than Travel Inn that give duvets rather than itchy blankets. The Horse and Jockey spoilt me, comfortable beds, big fluffy duvets, Elemis products in the luxury bathrooms and... more
