On first impressions I was surprised that what I thought I’d booked was a hotel and had the usual expectations of a standard reception check-in. Only when I arrived it was apparent that it’s a self check in. You had to read 1 email to find the entrance code then find another with details of what room you’ve been allocated. My email with these details went into my junk, I had to call up to sort this out. However this was done quickly. After a long, tiring day, I could have done without it. There’s no restaurant or bar in the hotel, so I went out. There’s lots of nice places to eat within a few minutes walk. You can’t fault the room, it was beautiful, clean and spacious. I also didn’t realise that you need to book your breakfast in the day before. I saw a note under my door in the morning telling me I should have done it. I went down for breakfast in the morning anyway, but there was no issue. I had a lovely breakfast in the cafe. On reflection I should have read what the procedures were but most people don’t. Overall it’s a lovely house and would stay again

I absolutely love it here, I stay whenever I’m back in Northern Ireland. Hillsborough is a gorgeous village, not far at all from Belfast. Arthur’s is a lovely hotel, right in the heart of town and walking distance from some great restaurants and bars. The rooms are stunning! Beautifully decorated and super comfortable. Breakfast is also great. I will always choose to stay here whenever I’m over :)

Automated service feels impersonal

Very nice room decorated to High standard, but self check in and no one around unless you call and emergency number. So for me the experience was very impersonal. I had an early start so did not complete the breakfast information, but was then woken up by a knock at the door at 10pm asking if I wanted breakfast.
