Could do with a few upgrades in areas. But overall a very pleasant and nice B&B location is spot on over looking the seafront and few minute to high street by walking so turn up park in the large car park and not worry about having to drive anywhere all weekend staff are more than welcoming and friendly by far...

Yes, it could do with an upgrade, but it has a wonderful location, so that you can keep your car in the large parking area, and walk everywhere. The cost was excellent, £48 for a double room (£40 if you can do without the sea view) in October. Great three night stay with very friendly man in charge, very clean... More

I can't argue that this hotel is in a great location, and that it 'could' be a really good hotel - but it would need a huge investment to bring it up to scratch, as it falls well short of what you'd expect from even the most basic B&B. It looks as though it's not had anything done to it... More

If you are looking for a good value bed and breakfast with great views over the sea and a good central location this is the hotel for you. If you are looking for luxury and frills don’t bother. But with a little bit of TLC this hotel could rival any in the area. (The outside could do with a good... More

We really enjoyed our stay at the Arlington hotel & although the weather wasn't nice enough to use the outdoor pool, it was nice to have as an added extra! We were pleasantly surprised as although we hadn't requested a sea view room, we were on the top floor with the most amazing view of Rapparee beach and Capstone. It... More

We had a family room for a week which also allowed our 2 dogs to stay, absolutely brilliant sea view, nice good sized room with all that's needed for a good old fashioned family holiday. We have paid a lot more for a lot less and will return at some stage.

We stayed at the Arlington Hotel for five nights. I was expecting a dated hotel and worse considering the price and some of the reviews I read! The Arlington however was pleasantly surprising, yes it was dated but the room was more than adequate. We have three children and thought things may be cramped, the room however was spacious and...

I'm going to start on a positive. Wow, what a fantastic view from our window, but the rest was just well, hmmmm, yes. The staff were attentive and polite. The hotel needs to be pulled down and rebuilt to bring it back to life and not something stuck in the 70's, with woodchip wallpaper and a floral freeze that was... More
