We had a lovely stay at the Bushmills Inn during our vacation. The staff was very professional and kind. The room was great - loved the loft! Super close and convenient to the Bushmills Distillery and Giants Causeway We ate dinner and breakfast at the Inn. My ribeye was overdone and the waitstaff never checked on us to see if the meal was OK - that’s my only negative comment. The Inn also did not offer to remedy the situation (make a new steak, etc). Otherwise, the food was excellent. The croissants are probably the best I’ve had outside of Paris! We did not have desert but our daughter previously visited the Inn and said our future son on law’s favorite dessert is now the Bushmills sticky toffee pudding.

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!
