Strangford Arms Hotel Newtownards
10/10 Excellent
"Great little hotel, excellent parking, and easy access to a major shopping mall.
Hotel staff are very friendly and most helpful, I would especially like to mention a young lady whose name I believe is Elisha, who went above and beyond to help me during my stay.
I would also like to mention in dispatches, for their great work ethic, Darren and Paul.

"Absolute gem of a place! The place was quirky, clean and in a great location. The room was comfortable and spacious. The staff were really lovely, helpful and friendly. The breakfast was amazing on both days!"
"We were very pleased with our stay at Maldron Hotel. The location is excellent, I gave it a 4 star on area around the hotel only because it is in the City Centre, and there were a few sketchy looking people walking around, but in spite of that, the location was excellent! It was near many restaurants. Some special touches were that there were bathrobes, slippers, and an iron in the room. Boxes of water, coffee, and several different kinds of cookies were also provided. The room was immaculately clean. I would definitely stay here again, and I will recommend it to anyone traveling to Belfast. "
"Staff were absolutely lovely, couldn’t have been more helpful- second time staying & I will definitely be back again when I’m next in Belfast. Great location & great value for money. "
"Everything about the property I liked, cleanliness, location and very comfortable. The only complaint would be that the breakfast could be better. I am looking forward to staying there again."
"Had a good stay hotel staff very friendly and nice, bar staff very unfriendly namely the food and beverage supervisor seemed like he didn’t want to be there standing behind the bar and not serving customers or picking and choosing who to serve first needs to be retrained on customer service and be more welcoming. This happened on the 15/8/25 and I think it could be a reason the bar was quiet at that time."
