Our stay at slieve donard was brilliant. Rooms were lovely and spacious, all the essential items available, the tea/coffee tray was well stocked with good quality items. Clean and modern bathroom. We had sunday carvery which was absolutely brilliant food. Breakfast in the morning was again fantastic and all food clearly top quality, really fresh and tasty. The only thing that let this hotel down a little was service was slow at times both in the restaurant and at the bar. We were advised at check in that the hotel was fully booked (we stayed at halloweem half term time) and staff were very friendly and apologetic about the long waits etc and seemed rushed off their feet, so definetely not the fault of staff, however it seemed maybe the hotel didnt have enough staff on to serve at such a busy time. This however would not put me off as i am sure it was exceptional circumstances whilst the local halloween festival/events were taking place in Newcastle on the night of our stay, and I will definetely stay again.
