“Fantastic hotel, can definitely recommend it”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 January 2012

Being disabled, I have more demands than an average traveler. I was impressed by the trouble taken in this hotel to provide me with a shower chair for the shower of my ground floor room which even had grab handles! It was clean, comfortable and the cooking was excellent. Both my travelling companions were delighted with the quality of their very tasty & generous 'Ulster Fries' for breakfast, while I enjoyed the range of cereals, fresh juice & yogurt. Coffee Tea & toast were supplied so generously it would keep even the hungriest & greediest people happy. This was my first visit to N.Ireland & the friendly, helpful owners of this hotel gave me the best first impression I could have hoped for.

we stayed 4 nights and the owners were so hospitable and friendly, very helpful as on our last day our flight was not until evening but let us use lounge and keep luggage until departure. Breakfast was excellent and the room was very clean and spacious (we did have the disabled room) we hope that if we can return to Bangor to be able to stay again

Room Tip: use taxi service as recommended by owners very good

“A real Bangor welcome!”

This was our first time in Northern Ireland and we had no idea where to stay. We chose Shelleven and we were not disappointed, everything from the warm welcome to the fantastic breakfasts and clean and homely rooms were what we would expect. We found the host and hostess to be very welcoming and informative about the area. We would certainly return here!

we enjoyed a fabulous weekend ,the welcome and hospitality we received from Mary and Philip was brilliantand nothing was too much trouble. The breakfasts were superb and always served with a smile. Philip was always at hand to give advice and added details regarding the historyof the area which helped bring our trips to life. If we return to Bangor then we will always return to this guest house.
