Portrush Atlantic Hotel

8/10 Good
"Ottima sistemazione a pochi km dalle Giant's Causeway. L'hotel si trova praticamente e pochi passi dalla zona centrale della città. La stanza era abbastanza grande, i letti comodi ed anche la colazione al mattino era buona ed abbondante, sia dolce che salata. L'auto si può parcheggiare in strada, anche di fronte all'Hotel, ma occorre fare attenzione agli orari consentiti per il parcheggio gratuito. Gli addetti passano per controllare, quindi al di fuori degli orari gratuiti è bene verificare come provvedere al pagamento. Sotto l'hotel c'è anche un pub che come sempre è pieno di gente già dal tardo pomeriggio."

"Check in quick and easy. Parking was busy but always found a space. Room was clean and functional, cleaned daily although often not until well into the afternoon. The safe was not working when we arrived but was fixed almost immediately on notifying reception. The food, both breakfast and evening meals, was very good quality with lots of choice. The gym was out of operation which we were not aware of before arrival - there was no indication of when it would reopen. The swimming pool has 2 water slides, only one of which was working during our 6 night stay, and that one was temporarily closed on and off all day for lifeguard breaks. Changing rooms were clean. Be aware that the 'spa', being the jacuzzi, sauna and steam room, are all in the very busy main pool area . The jacuzzi was frequently taken over by groups of small children despite the 16+ rule (although I think a slighter younger age restriction such as 12+ would have been fine). We used the golf driving range - free loan of clubs and you just pay for the basket of balls. A good activity for those travelling with older children, even beginners. Staff were all courteous and eager to help. I would recommend this hotel for families with children primarily. It is well located for exploring the surrounding area and is very child friendly."
