Frommer's Review

Not in the city itself, this elegant hotel is 8km (5 miles) east on the shore of Belfast Lough, in County Down. Sprawling across acres of secluded gardens and woodlands, the manor house was originally built as a palace for the bishops of Down. Later, it was sold and remained a private home until it was converted into a hotel in 1963. It has grand style, with fine antiques, plasterwork and paintings, Louis XV chandeliers, an unexpectedly modern spa, and exceptional service.

Facilities:
Restaurant (Continental); bar; indoor swimming pool; tennis court; gym; spa; Jacuzzi; steam room; bicycle rental; beauty treatments; room service; babysitting; concierge; laundry service

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
