This is a cute old hotel, but clean and updated with sitting room. The shower was very difficult to figure out. Dining was nice and the pub had many areas to sit. Parking is free and plenty of it. In the heart of the town. Not much going on in this town.

Our check in was outstanding; the young man even took us directly to our room! He was so thorough & kind, assisting us in arranging dinner reservations and so forth. The hotel is unique; there are thoughtful touches throughout. Memorable stay; just what we hoped!

Lovely, cozy hotel by the Giants Causeway. The staff are absolutely fabulous. The food was a little pricey, but very good. The rooms are very large and comfortable. I especially enjoyed the Nespresso, coffee, and the morning. The beds are comfortable. The pillows are comfortable. The showers are clean and fully stocked with everything you could need.

Wonderful hotel! The atmosphere is just beautiful and historical. Staff were phenomenal! So pleasant and willing to go above and beyond. It was a nice walk to Bushmills distillery and a short drive to many points of interest. Food was wonderful. We had a 2 floor room that was immaculate and had a great soaker tub. Only issue was lack of dresser or cabinet for clothes. No room upstairs for suitcase and closet was very awkward. A dresser or cabinet in living room would make a huge difference. Loved the hotel and would highly recommend!

Bushmills Hotel is a quaint place, lovely decor, room was a good space, comfortable bed. Shower was difficult to regulate. Sofa cushions kept sinking down so a bar kept popping up. Dining room had rather unfriendly staff. A manager in a suit was very stone faced and felt quite unfriendly. For the high cost we expected more.
