At Carrickdale Hotel & Spa, travelers praise the friendly staff, while feedback on rooms and dining is more mixed, ranging from comfort and good views to dated decor, temperature or noise issues, and meals that vary from excellent to ordinary.
Guests frequently enjoy the pool, gym, spa, an outdoor jacuzzi, and landscaped gardens, though parts of the property feel dated and the pool can be busy. The roadside location near the motorway suits stopovers, but some note road noise and that you’ll need to drive for nearby attractions. Expect a friendly, amenity-rich stay with uneven room quality and dining.

First room we were put into (316) was quite loud with some kind of pump or fan running, probably from the leisure centre or ballroom below. Thankfully, the staff were quick to set us up in a new room (506) which was very quiet and comfortable. The access to the pool and gym and hot tubs was lovely but the meal in the pub was pretty ordinary. Overall though, we enjoyed our stay and would likely return.

It has nice surroundings and is next to the motorway, which makes it very convenient for a stay over when travelling. At reception the lady was very accommodating and we enjoyed great service at the restaurant. Pool maybe not as tranquil as expected as busy.

I had a lovely stay here. The room was nice and had a stunning view of the adjacent mountain. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly and check in was fast. The restaurant had a good range of food and drink, so my evening meal was enjoyable. The leisure facilities included with the stay were great. The outdoor jacuzzi was a particular highlight. Breakfast was good. Whilst I personally prefer a self-serve hot counter, service was quick and the quality of ingredients was very high. The property isn’t modern, but it is clean and charming. You’ll need to drive to get to anywhere away from the hotel, but you shouldn’t need to go anywhere as the hotel has all you need (there’s a petrol station just next door if needed) I’d certainly stay here again

Room was smart, but didn’t have any windows aside from a small very high velux. Don’t think I’ve ever seen this before in a hotel room, felt very claustrophobic. Room seemed to really fluctuate in temperature as the aircon kicked in and out. I’d say it was quite pricey for a windowless room. I’m surprised no other reviews seem to mention it. Quite a strange setup having to cross the road from the main hotel to get to the room but no big deal. Staff were otherwise very nice and the food was good. But won’t go back just for fear of getting another windowless room.

I had a lovely stay here. The room was nice and had a stunning view of the adjacent mountain. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly and check in was fast. The restaurant had a good range of food and drink, so my evening meal was enjoyable. The leisure facilities included with the stay were great. The outdoor jacuzzi was a particular highlight. Breakfast was good. Whilst I personally prefer a self-serve hot counter, service was quick and the quality of ingredients was very high. The property isn’t modern, but it is clean and charming. You’ll need to drive to get to anywhere away from the hotel, but you shouldn’t need to go anywhere as the hotel has all you need (there’s a petrol station just next door if needed) I’d certainly stay here again

Beautiful room, spotless, comfortable, and a good wifi connection. Slightly let down by the bar area and the food but made up for it with the location and room itself. There's a good walk at Ravendale about 5 minutes drive away, excellent for a chance to stretch your legs after a long drive.
