The helpfulness of the staff. The function we were attending changed the starting time at the last minute and we required an earlier check in time. This was sorted out with the minimum of fuss and when we checked in were greeted by a very friendly member of staff.

Little Ireland is a gem of a property, a great find for us and our 2 dogs who were also right at home here. The house is beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean (we would easily have believed we were the first people to have stayed due to the high standard of maintenance). The lovely hosts really have thought of everything, providing all we needed for a fabulous stay. They were also so helpful and when we messaged with a query they replied with an answer straight away. There was so much space for us all and we had a fabulous time (also really enjoyed a lovely meal in Papa Rab's!) Thank you for a great stay, we wouldn't hesitate to book again!

Stranraer suffered with the loss of the ferry terminal , like most towns the centre needs attention. empty shops and boarded up premises are bringing down almost all towns and cities across the UK and Stranraer is no exception.

There's almost zero reason to visit Stranraer itself; no ferries run from here now. I found one decent shop of interest, the little museam was ok and free. The proximity to the mull of galloway and the rhins was my reason for staying. The accomodation choice was not great, but Royal Hotel was the best option

Stranraer is a little rundown after its fortunes were affected by the relocation of the ferry along the road to Cairnryan. Much of the harbour is run down with tatty parking bays for ferry vehicles. However there are hidden gems, the swan lido and park by the water, an ACTUAL tourist information office, helpful public library. Decent if rather retro restaurants - Chinese, pizza oven. Museum and castle to visit although check opening hours.

Room was beautifully clean and fresh - even from the hallway it smelt fresh! Really easy check-in process, staff were super friendly towards our dog, and lovely well-lit park & seaside promenade walk across the road for a stroll after a long drive. Great location only 10-15mins drive from Cairnryan ferry ports, but surprisingly not too much freight truck noise overnight (as we've experienced near other ports).

Perfect location for us as we were arriving in Scotland from the Belfast to Cairnryan ferry. We were greeted by the hostess at the door when we arrived, which was lovely. Parking was available on the street just outside the hotel, which was convenient. We ate at the Blue Peter hotel just up the hill. Great food but very quiet. Breakfast at the Corsewell arms was great, including haggis!

The hotel has excellent facilities, with swimming pool gym and even curling. The restaurant was very good with good food and a beautiful and very grand room. The staff were pleasant. The room was a good size. The location is excellent (right opposite the road to the station, near the main bus stops and the town centre and also with free parking). The wifi worked well.
