Disappointing to the max
Sauna at 65 degrees Eye stinging pool (chlorine doesn't sting, urine does!) Drafty room, wind whistling through the door (no opening window!) Very very poor dinner; forgot the sides, chicken served tepid, steak chewy as an old boot House keeping woke us clattering Hoover's etc very early Kept awake by other residents using lift opposite room; cm's gap at bottom of door inviting all noises in Check out at 11, house keeping banging on the room door at 5 past, 10 past... Had been looking forward to staying at the Slieve for some weeks. Plan was walking the Mournes then enjoying the spa. Disappointed to the point of frustration Would strongly recommend eating dinner elsewhere Lovely staff, great location but an abysmal experience

Wonderful stay
The staff were so friendly and attentive. We adored the sea view room, perfect size, massive, comfortable bed and everything you need - a fridge, and wine cooked, tea, coffee etc. breakfast was delicious and had lots of options. The spa was lovely - only negative of the whole trip was the sauna was not hot enough. But it won’t put us off going back :)

Amazing Weekend Break
It was our first time in the part of Ireland and we had a wonderful stay, we really couldn't have asked for more. Unfortunately we missed the option of getting a sea view but I believe we could have selected this if we spotted the follow up email but apart from the we had a stay that will live long in our memory.

Not the worst, not the best
Lovely staff, nice environment. Spa felt like a leisure centre, over crowded and no towels provided. Rooms lovely and comfy but had two cold-luke warm showers. Staff helpful and friendly. Overall, nice enough place but would not go back or recommend as a 5*. More like 3.5 or 4 and therefore overpriced.
