My stay at the Culloden Hotel was a wonderful experience overall. The beautifully maintained grounds were a highlight, and the luxurious room comfort made my stay even better. Dining at the Vespers Restaurant was superb, although the breakfast could use some improvement. The service was professional, but a few hiccups prevented it from being perfect. I would definitely return for another visit, hoping for an improved breakfast next time.

I had a relaxing stay at the hotel, greatly enjoyed the beautiful grounds overlooking Belfast Lough, and found the rooms to be spotlessly clean and comfortable. However, the breakfast was underwhelming and didn't offer much variety, which was disappointing given the overall quality of the hotel. The location outside Holywood is convenient, but dining experiences could be improved.

Our stay had its highlights, especially the beautiful grounds and excellent dining options, which provided a lovely backdrop for our visit.

The hotel has beautiful grounds and offers a luxurious setting, making it a pleasant place to relax. The dining experience can be hit or miss, and the breakfast service needs improvement. While I found my room to be comfortable, it lacked the character expected from a historic hotel. Overall, it seems that there's potential for better service and dining quality.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positive experiences and notable letdowns. The stunning grounds and attentive staff truly stand out, yet the breakfast service and dining inconsistencies were disappointing. The room was spacious and comfortable, and while the amenities are appealing, the dining experience didn't quite meet expectations. Overall, there's potential here, but some areas certainly need attention.
