I had the most amazing experience here. The staff was the best ever !!!! I was not able to reach the hostel that I booked on time because it was past 11 and this place was close by so I decided to go there. It was already super late and their doors were closed too but I called and a guy answered and let me in. He was a night porter and did not know how to check me in but he video called his manager and made it happen for me. He was super nice and even carried my bags up to my room for me. He let me know that if I needed anything, I just had to ask. They rooms were really nice and clean, the beds were comfortable and the shower gel was really high quality that smelled amazing. They even let me extend my checkout time by a hour because I was so tired from my long drive the night before. Highly recommend this place.

Great location for Giants Causeway; Carrick a Rede and coastal drives. The pub and food is great. We had a family unit in the outside building. Good room size- large double bed was comfy and good bathroom/ shower. Part of the room is subdivided into a 4 bunk bed unit. Convenient for families.
If the weather is bad and you are stuck inside it’s not great- quite dark and it opens straight onto the car park. In the ground floor flat the soundproofing is poor. Noise from upstairs - children banging- was loud; though just adults the next night was fine.

Perfect for what myself and my friend needed. We wanted to be close to the coast and Ballintoy Harbour for a NY day wild swim. Fullerton Arms was lovely, warm and welcoming with a very nice room. Super comfortable beds and good food. I'm a vegan so was surprised at the presence of vegan food for such a small village and it was one of the reasons I chose this place. Although the rooms were above the bar and it was NYE we heard no noise at all.
Nothing. It was all good.

Loved the location. The room was clean and very modern (I really loved the design of the room, one of the nicest I've ever stayed in). Bed was big and very comfortable, bathroom was clean. Grabbed a meal in the bar and it was tasty. Car park at the rear was full (and being power washed) but there was plenty of spaces on the street out front.
This is a once off complaint - but the night I was staying there were two lads power washing the car park at the rear of the property. They continued this until 1am! As we were in the middle of a heat wave, I had to keep the window open. I tried to get an early night and hit the hay at 10pm, but the sound of them power washing woke me up a few times. Very bizarre that this was allowed. They finally stopped around 1am. Slept grand afterwards. My only other complaint is that the room doors could really do with a soft close, as there was a lot of banging doors in the corridor.

The room was very new, modern and clean. There was a comfortable double bed, a table with a chair and a toilet. There were also blankets and towels and everything worked properly. There was a parking behind the building. Also, there was no noise, it was a calm place and you could see the sea from the window of the room. There is a restaurant in which you can have breakfast, lunch and dinner with an extra cost. Apart from that, there is a room decorated with Game of Thrones elements which is quite nice for fans of the series to take pictures in it.
When we did the check-in we had to search a waiter from the restaurant and they spent almost no time with us, seeming to be in a rush. They asked us to book breakfast without telling us that it was not included.

Super clean and cosy room, we slept so well all night! Bedding and towels clean and fresh. A great breakfast selection ( the wheaten bread was to die for) and the ulster fry was outstanding! Dinner too was delightful, we had mussels, the bacon chop and sticky pudding. All superb with a great Guinness and Irish whisky. Service was top notch and i loved everything about this cosy Inn and the little village! A true taste of Northern Irish hospitality!

I arrived around 6pm and stayed only for one night. But since it‘s also a bar/restaurant I had only to walk downstairs for dinner which was good, breakfast as well. The room was small but for my purpose ideal as I was on a journey. I wanted to buy some groceries for my trip but there was nothing near. So they offered to prepare something for me for a fee. That was very kind!
everything good :)

A lovely country pub in an equally lovely area not too far from the Ballintoy Harbour and close to both Giant's Causeway and Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge. The room and bathroom were very clean, the bed and pillows were comfortable and the breakfast was great and for £10 extra very good value. It was quiet and parking was available both behind the pub and street parking in front.
My room and bathroom were very small but as a solo traveller I guess the size was adequate. It was spotlessly clean which was more important to me than size.

The room was good and well decorated v different The staff were all friendly and the bar area had a good atmosphere.The food was good and varied .The hotel was in a great position within easy reach of the main tourist attractions, and the countryside was terrific
Only slight problem for us was the portions of food were too large and where possible we had a smaller amount . As said the room was good would have liked a bedside table and a hook ?

The food was delicious. Big portions. The salt and chilli chips were the best I've ever had 😀 I needed to print something out before we checked out. The member of staff I spoke to went above and beyond to print it for me.
There was live music the night we stayed. We could hear the music from our room. However, it WAS. A Saturday night so 🤷🏼♀️
